I have no more coding issues to take care of (that I know of, at least). The only thing remaining that I can think of is the card back and the box.

With the box, it would save ink if the two side flaps on the back (which go inside) didn’t have the parchment texture on them.

For convenience sake I’ve attached a zip with the all the MSE stuff you need to load the cards.

I’ll fix that BP.

Fixed - You know what’s weird? The file size when I reprinted it is only 1MB now. Those two sides do not add up to 10MB.

This is the link to mediafire.
PowerCardBox.zip

I’ve also attached the file to this post, but wanted a more central location to host the file at too.

HOLY CRAP. I’m printing the Cleric to PDF and the spool is 1.15 GB, and still growing!

Okay - the Cleric PDF is 57MB. It’s huge.

Given that it’s pure pictures, that doesn’t surprise me.

As I see it, the only thing remaining is the card back. Once we have one of those, the power cards will be done.

With the back, the last thing I had discussed was a simpler back a la Magic Cards. Is something like that still desired?

I think so. My suggestion had been to use the parchment texture you’ve been using for the card box with the “D&D” logo centered on the card.

For a border, I then suggested either a simple color border, or some kind of scroll effect.

Not what I had in mind, but nice nonetheless.

One thing I’d do differently is remove the “Power Cards” pseudo-embossing and just center “Dungeons & Dragons.” That way we can use the same back for Item, Monster, or Player cards if we decide to go about designing them.

Sure thing. That’s an easy fix.

In the meantime - here is the link to the Cleric Power Card zip file.

That’s a good card back.

Thank you. I’m uploading Fighter, Rogue, and Ranger now and will post when done. Currently printing warlock to PDF and I’ll upload that next. I don’t anticipate getting to warlord and wizard until later tonight or tomorrow.
