I hate to not post content, but I wanted to ask a few questions about this thread before investing too much time. First, is there an available compilation of all the renders posted here? Second, was there ever a comprehensive GIMP template made for these kinds of renders?

Zeerbe's templates work well in GIMP, I use them myself.
I don't believe there's a comprehensive compilation available, I know there was one on the old make-a-proxy thread but I don't think anyone has done that here.
Hey everyone, i was reading through this posts (as well as TheEvilCliff's blog) today and really got inspired to make some altered art cards for my commanders. My favorite commander deck and one i have been running for a couple years now is my Drana deck, so i figured that was the best place to start, let me know what you think! cant figure out how to link the images the same way you guys do so i will just add the url for now.

It looks good, there are however some issues with the font and the mana cost. I do think the art fits, though I feel some parts detract from the overall piece, but that's only my opinion.
To post an image, use:
[img]direct link to the image[/img]. It has to be a direct link, so I recommend using an image host such as imgur.
On a separate note, I finally got around to altering a card!
Hey all this is my first creation mind giving me some feed back Havent done Photoshop in a aloooong time so be gentle

Kekule_the_Magician on the inclusion of Devouring Light in a TurboFog Deck:
Quote from Kekule_the_Magician »
As a person who typically plays very creature oriented decks, I HATE when an opponent has Devouring Light. It is infuriating to finally get through with a creature on to have it exiled.
I've come to hate White in general now because it gets everything to the point where it is almost unfair. White has boardwipes (Wrath of God, End Hostilities), targeted exile and removal (Devouring Light, Banishing Light, Last Breath), lifegain spells, lifelink, low cost/high power enchantments and auras, flying creatures; my goodness what don't they get!?

He looks intimidating!
There's two minor flaws that jump out at me: the title font is a touch small, and the first ability isn't lined up with the second. There's an indent or something going on.
Otherwise, fantastic!

I have 15 EDH decks...sorta kills the 'I only need one of a card' aspect of the format.
I went and started a Commander/EDH blog! Come see it at http://wordofcommander.blogspot.com/ and it includes all 15 of my custom super-art generals!

Greetings, my second attempt (as the first was :()
Still adjusting to gimp, had some issues with fonts and bevel/embossing the name/typeline bars. I happened to merge some layers when i was moving them down, which makes it rather annoying to try and change them later.
Anyways, criticism appreciated

Did the template you're using not come with a bevel applied? Or did you not use a template?
I have a request. Can someone make me an Akroma, Angel of Fury super art with this linked artwork. You can message it to me instead of posting it on here. Thanks!!!!!

I know HG, in post #12 (http://forums.mtgsalvation.com/showpost.php?p=8181423&postcount=12 ) has his gallery all set up, and I've got all of my stuff on my blog, but in terms of putting everything together...I don't think it's happened.
Anyone up for that challenge?

It seems to be the original card, with a foil layer added, and having cutouts.
Is this something to report?

If the seller doesn't not have permission for that art, or hasn't changed the art in some significant way, then it's reportable.

That's right.

Can I have this? if this was real retailers would be selling it for like $400, SO MANY AMAZING Cards! We can only hope a FTV will ever be this good.
Judges should simply be paid.
It's a picture of Scorpion from Mortal Kombat, in case anyone is wondering. Can this be done?

I downloaded and used zeerbe's template, and after going back through all the frame layers, none of them have a bevel applied

Ah, well I'm pretty unfamiliar with GIMP myself, I've used exclusively photoshop for quite a while. Does every template do it?
