View Full Version : PSOw User Cards (On break, but update!)



Skorpius

User Cards are just fun little digital cards (like in CCG/TCGs). They go into your profile (under the Personal Photo, possibly), and are just a little card about your account.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v31/Snapshots/PSOp/User%20Cards/usercardex.jpg

Information Used:
1 ~ The versions of PSO that are in your forum profile.
2 ~ Username
3 ~ Forum Icon
4 ~ Forum post count (at time of card creation)
5 ~ Addition information (may contain the following):
~ Join date (standard)
~ Team name (if you're in one)
~ Custom title
~ Mood
~ Other info, if stated.
6 ~ Copyright to my AIM screenname.
7 ~ Date of creation (for the card)

------------------------------

Completed:

Sub-list:
~ -Z-
~ Stan

~ Bot-Bot

If you are requesting a card, I need information about your profile. This can be about you, personally, or about your online persona. If you don't have enough information, I'll put you on a sub-list. Until I get information, you will remain on the list until the next list is finished. If I don't get additional information about you for the card, then I'll have to remove you to make it fair for others.

Here are some questions to answer when making a new request to help me decide many factors involved with making a card:

~ What is your favorite color?
~ What character class would you be?
~ Would you be good, or evil?
~ What kind of job title would you have if you were in PSO? (and describe the job)
~ If you had a special skill, what would it be called? (and describe the skill)
~ What interest and/or hobbies do you have?

I'm glad everyone is having fun with these, I am too, and I appreciate all the good words everyone has said about these cards.

Very interesting. What font did you use and what do the stats beside the portrate mean as well as the number in the lower righthand corner of the card(8/8)?

Skorpius
Aug 8, 2005, 09:50 PM
Courier New for the name.
Comic Sans for the other text.

The stats are posts, and the lower right corner number is the date.

I've finished my own, and I'm done for the night.

I'll do some tomorrow, since you guys think they're cool. ;P

9999+ would be just that, 9999 with a + maybe.. >_> But since there really isn't anyone else who is anywhere near clearing that (at least that I know of), I went with 4 numbers.

His would say 9999 with rocking attributes of pwn.

I'm not sure if I would want to give out the project file. It took me 2 days of 8 hour work to get the blank, and there are things that have to be done to it to give effects (like the version buttons, the post count, specific font/size).

Also, I'm still tweaking the images, and will be making a Test icon for these, since I still need to add a few more touches, and get some things settled.

If you could find a way to implement these with PHP so they updated automatically, it would surely replace a large portion of what exists in our profile pages currently.

If not, I don't mind.

Anyway, those card ideas are hawt. And I was thinking, maybe varying the color.
Oh, you should makes some for Mods too. ^_^ I'd like to see that one pototoe one...

Also, the ketchup guy who is always giving that introduction line... whatever. He's cool.

This one I did randomly, because I'm a suck-up.

Also to test different colors of different things, and gradients on the background.

Yeah, guys, I don't know how many he'll be able to get to, but if you want one made, give him the info in your posts so he has something to work with in case he has free time and none of you are around.

I would assume he can't make any promises, though. <_<

I'm going to hold off for today, though. I have to do some things before I can focus on these again. I want to get these cards finished until I take any more requests, so I'll edit this topic once I'm fully completed with this set.

Great idea Skorp. Looks Fantastic XD

But the text is a little hard to read. I'd get rid of the outer glow, make the text white, and add a thin black border around it. Will look much better, not to mention easier to read http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

I'm trying to retain the basic pattern that can be seen, to unify them all like any other CCG. But as I make more, I'm experimenting with different gradients and patterns, to see how different they can look without straying too far from the rest.

I believe my point is still valid though. It would put less burden on the artist and more on us as a community if we were given some form of template(which we already have the card template itself, but i was reffering to the misc items like the lit up version pips and such) for us to create our own.

Hmm, with something that complete would it then be possible to intigrate into the board system and have the post counter(both numbers and the meters) move to reflect the user in question in real time? I'd say its possible, but due to the direction taken with these each card would have to have its own template made and even then somebody would have to do the job of intigrating them into the boards themselves, which would be a hellish task in of itself further compounded by the fact that there are more users joining on a daily basis.

Edit: All that being said I do like the variety of colors that've come out so far and regret that it is unlikely somebody would find a way to use these for more than decoration. I'm sorry but I'm a sucker to the concept of card battling if not the actual exicution.

lengthy enough for you or am I still your fabled Troll?

You do realize it takes a talented programmer to do all that, right? Not to mention time...

ladyjaderiver
Aug 11, 2005, 10:15 AM
It would, most likely, be possible to program it to do font variations and different colour combinations could be selected, but, as mentioned before, it would take a very talented programmer to do it, and I'm not sure anyone capable of it would have time to do it. (Maybe someday, if I ever get off my rear and start learning PHP...)

And even with a template, it would be hard for anyone else to do them in quite the same way. I think it's something best left to the original artist, so we don't have a bunch of cheap knock-offs running around. Because, let's face it - anyone without photoshop or another powerful image editor wouldn't be able to do these justice. And besides, to get a lot of the effects, the template would have to come with a tutorial explaining how he did them... It would be a huge hassle.

Perhaps you're starting to understand the point of these cards. They are for decoration purposes only. A lot would have to be thought up for a card game; statistics and card design are dependant on game rules, which would have to be created.

There is no burden on me, either. I'm enjoying experimenting with layer effects, gradients, and patterns. Infact, with this project, I've learned how to use the "Custom Gradient" tool of The GIMP.

It was edited at the same time of this post. You had asked for a blank to make your own. You did not ask for me to make one. Please try not to make me look like a dick when I'm being very nice and generous.



erm... What?
I asked for one to put on my Extra Info page... not a blank one.
Apologies of confusion etc etc...

I've made an addition to the guidelines for requesting a user card. Those that are on the lists, please keep these in mind and PM me with any sufficient informaiton you might want on your card.

I've taken a break from the cards for the time being. I'll start them up next week, but after that, I'll be pretty busy packing again for another move. ;|

Being a former (erm maybe that should be still recovering) CCGer, these things're awesome. If they were an actual CCG/TCG, they'd definitely be in the (to borrow a phrase http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wink.gif) "gotta catch 'em all", or rather "collect 'em all", category. http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_yes.gif

I'm trying to retain the basic pattern that can be seen, to unify them all like any other CCG. But as I make more, I'm experimenting with different gradients and patterns, to see how different they can look without straying too far from the rest.


The variances fit in perfectly with the theme. Like how CCGs (and TCGs to an extent, I've got less experience with those although it probably still applies) have various types, rarities, versions, etc, not to mention the possible variance within the same category/type. Again, great idea and awesome job with them. http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

Heh, I just wish I were worthy of one. No, not a request or anything, just "thinking out loud" so to speak. http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif


Edit: Pfft, I think I posted in the wrong topic... I knew I saw another topic similar to this one when I was exploring, turns out the other (and more recent -__-; ) one was in a different area... >__<; I just couldn't remember where before... Oh well...

I'm still on the fence about the cards having any kind of function. Kuda and I once jonkingly discussed the post count stats:

DFP
ATP
MST
+HP

Something along the lines of all cards having a set HP, and having the last number added to it (like Story Character cards in Ep3). Not sure if I want to incorporate rules, though, but maybe have stats just for fun anyway.

Also, I'm reworking how I want to add information to the cards. So far, I have a few ideas, and the good news is that they are solid ideas. In due time, I'll have a basis for collecting information with enough customization for requests. ;o
