In this Debate fallacies take the place of instants. I thought I would use the classical rather than the modern layouts because I seem to be able to cram more space on it and also I like it better.

Those are really good. Since everyone will start posting there own anyway i might as well ask if you mind?

Hmm. For some reason the pictures won't load up again. Is this a limitation in bandwidth or something with my yahoo account?

Broken links, Broken links Broken links, I tried fixing em, no-go. You need another host.

*Edit Nevermind everything just started working.

I just about did a spit-take when I saw the picture for Appeal to Authority. Comander in Chief of the Norwegian Army or something, right? One of those Scandinavian countries, anyway.

Very nice. I giggled at the Appeal to Authority card, embarrassingly. :)

Those are very good, aside from the black space beside/above/below some of the pictures. Appeal to Authority pic is very amusing. Nice work. :)

You are right. It says so on the bottom of the card.

Thanks. Scaling has been a bit of a problem, since I lose too much image if I force it to try and fit it exactly into the square.

I have done plenty more, so I will try and post the links directly rather than link the image to the board in case something goes wrong again.

Might want a different "Hitler-meeting-with-priest" picture. As I recall, that bishop was the Papal Nuncio, the ambassador from the Vatican. You could get pictures of just about any 1930s ambassador to Germany from anywhere in the world meeting with Hitler at some point.

Would it be easier to host them on Photobucket? You seem to have exceeded your geoshitties bandwidth allocation.

Done. Thanks to Rogue 9 for suggesting Photobucket in the SDN the gathering thread.

I think they're cool, but maybe for homophobe we could get Fred Phelps instead?

Not to nitpick, but Circular logic would be far more appropriate as "untap target untapped creature you control" for the second line of rules text. See it gets you right back to were you started, only takes a bit longer. :lol:

Nice ideas, though you might want to resize/crop some of the images: it detracts from the card to have blank space in the picture box.

Finally got a bit of time to work on these. I have updated circular logic, and done a flying sphagetti monster one. I will also post some of my other earliar cards, which aren't as good.

Mind if I post some I whipped together...?

Too bad my entire knowledge of magic cards is gleaned from parodies of Magic cards on the internet. And the fact that my computer seems to run 20x slower with the MtG editor up.

Any advice, critisms, etc?

EDIT : Followed Wyrm's advice. I think.

[MTG Nazi]Protective Sloping Forehead, if it's an artifact, must have an artifact background and cast with colorless mana.[/MTG Nazi]

Otherwise, I like. Esp. Protective Sloping Forehead.

Thanks. Even though I'm not exactly sure what your advice actually means, I think I probably got it right. Maybe.
