    Jaden we have some more serious matters than palet swaps.[DOUBLEPOST=1405280882][/DOUBLEPOST]Plus as he already said these are old customs.

    These are (mostly) old cards and we've already had this discussion. I've explained to you why a palette swap wouldn't work, and you've explained why I should at least do something. I'm not going to create new images for old cards that already have images that fit.[DOUBLEPOST=1405280978][/DOUBLEPOST]
    If you mean Consuming Flames, his card text right now functions exactly the same as if he were a Tag Force Dark Synchro using the Tag Force wording. The difference is purely cosmetic.

    Still it's more serious than palet swap.

    I admit doing a palette swap IS still sorta lazy but at least it's actually doing something to make them different...

    A true artist would rather copy images from other cards than palette swap every image that fits the card and say it's at least something. Have you even seen a palette swapped Injection Fairy Lily?

    What the fuck are you talking about? The only thing lazier than using the images of cards that already exist is not using any image at all and just leaving a white space there. At least if you palette swap a real card it won't be the same anymore...

    it's not about being unique when you get something like Infection Fairy lily when you palette swap her. Who would want her on a card?

    That's true. I'm not saying every card image would work when palette swapped. Some of them would be too weird.

    There are three main important things I can think of right now with regards to a card image.

    1. Fit. This is, in my opinion, the most important. If you make Super Awesome Dragon Knight Palladin and your image is a picture of a goldfish, it's not really relevant no matter how high-quality or original it is.
    2. Quality. Second most important. Even if your stick figure drawing is original, it isn't as visually appealing as something super high-quality but less original that fits the card equally well.
    3. Originality. Being original is good. If there's no price to pay, be more original. But if that originality comes at the cost of scribbling over your card art with a red marker, or drawing something completely unrelated because you don't know how to draw a dragon, then it isn't worth it.

    Right now, my cards all have images that fit pretty well, are fairly high quality, and are not very original (They are another card's art, after all). Taking a cheap way of artificially boosting originality a little like inverting the colors of the current image would hurt both the ft and the quality of the image, and not even represent a large leap in originality. Given the theme of the deck, finding real card images that would work with a palette swap to fit well and be at least decent quality would be both dificult and time consuming.

    I understand that but if you try hard enough though it's not that hard to find good images. I just use google or bing. DeviantArt is your best bet though. That was where I found that epic pic to use for Black Chaos Soldier - Harbinger of The Apocalypse. (I came up with that name on my own by the way)

    I am so happy.. Legitimate 5 material number 86.

    [​IMG][DOUBLEPOST=1405319920][/DOUBLEPOST]And to follow that up.. This is my first turn against one of Brook's more annoying decks.

    [​IMG]

    Norleras Denied.[DOUBLEPOST=1405323053][/DOUBLEPOST]I just looked at the new Satellarknights that are going to come out.. And I have lost faith in this game. As they are now, they're fun.. But with the new support they're getting they'll just be stupidly broken. And it seems like everything is like that now.. LS decks turn one dropping to an 18 card deck.. And apparently they don't have to worry about decking out anymore because they got a tuner and a synch, and when the synch dies they can shuffle any number of LS from grave to deck and get 300 LP for each one.. And while it's still on the field, once per turn you can pay 1k to banish something. So you can pay 1k to banish something destruction resistant, SS JD, pay 1k for JD, nuke the entire field, then shuffle most of your LS from grave to deck to get massive LP and not be in danger of death from those costs or in danger of decking out from the massive milling.. On your second turn.

    @SirFred131:

    I'm very sorry for the miscommunication. I have a terribly hurt left thumb, and that apparently is enough excuse for my parents to confiscate my Ipad, my Ipod Touch and my access to the computer. Is the duel still on?

    Oh, and I think the Dark Synchro discussion is ridiculous, 'cause unless you wanna imitate the anime, there's no Dark Synchro on the RL game! (This is more for @Yakumo)))

    Hah! I told Brook that either you or your electronics had been kidnapped, but he thought that because you weren't Mokuba you'd be safe.
    At apology, it's fine. Unplanned real world things do happen, and they take precedence over the internet (in many cases whether you'd like them to or not).
    At duel, I'd still be happy to duel if you want to.
