Oh yes, that reminded me of another thing I'd love (although it's quite a long shot, and I could understand if you couldn't be bothered): an 'EDH' checkbox for search results. Manually excluding cards with different colored mana symbols in their text boxes takes way too long now that hybrid exists (unless there's an easier way of doing it that I don't know about). I also second illagong's suggestion that there be a hybrid-okay checkbox, because a monocolor deck can still happily run hybrid cards.
Okay, I'll stop asking for stuff now.
Oh yes, and having up-to-date scripted comp. rules makes me very excited. I can change my sig link!
I find that the grey is a very unsettling colour.
I really liked the white. It's very soothing.
I like the block for the rules rather than the highlight so maybe that could be the light grey, or maybe a light blue.
I would also vote for the boarder back around the card and summary area like the old one. The boarder makes it seem neater to me.
Those are just my opinions. I use the site for everything and really like the new changes otherwise.
Thanks for a great site.

OH MY GOD PLEASE! That would make things really quick and simple
AMAZING JOB, by the way, mc.info is really coming along. It has always been better than Gatherer, though.
I'm going to second the request to add the price low/avg/high on search results if at all possible. I don't know the method that the price list requests are done (on the fly or daily monitor?) so I can understand not wanting to query 50 cards all at once on various shops.
EDH mode sounds good, but normally using the 'exclude' function works well. There aren't THAT many cards with off-colors in their text boxes.
I find that the grey is a very unsettling colour.

I was going for a gray to create the effect with the white box for the card text. But I can see that it's maybe a bit strange. I will consider some alternatives. Thanks for the feedback.
Hey, one question: can you make it so you don't need to type in weird symbols to get what was the default search on the old .info?
I searched for "pie" and got a bunch of german stuff. Is there a way to set searches to english only?
The default search is exactly the same. Searches for card names. And the advanced is the same, too. The foreign card names will appear at the end of the search, so just in case you were actually searching for a foreign card name, you can get it as well. But I will add an option to filter the results by language.
Yeah some special cards (split, flip, promos) might lack the proper "just the artwork" image file, so I'll most likely have to exclude them until I can figure out a way to make those work too.
I wanted to keep things simple, but I'll consider your idea. Thanks!
This link searches for all cards with mana cost RG, not 3RG.
Also, hybrid mana is acting funny on a search like this. For example, a search for "mana=RG" will find Gruul Guildmage (as expected), but also Fossil Find, which is weird!
I only tried the easy art game, but it might be fun to include the ability to guess the set that card was printed in. =D It would be easy for some, but when you start talking old sets there are people who wouldn't know... plus you can have 5 different black rituals then...

I believe WoTC's new policy is to make sure that every color can enjoy the exciting gameplay mechanic of making undercosted dudes and then turning them sideways. Clearly the future of magic.

Yeah, for cards that have a different artwork, that might indeed be fun. I'll consider for a future update!
Makes sense... that's the problem with changing from an older version, is there are always those little things that worked really well, you want to make them even better, then you risk loosing part of what worked. (if that makes sense
More fixes for split mana cards, but still not perfect. "{R/G}U" is tough to handle.
Yet to come: Card/Flavor Text search, "View/Sort Dropdown" improvement. If there's something I've missed, please let me know again, it's hard to keep up with all the small things!
The engine is quite good, I'm very impressed with your work.
Only one change:
Selecting from which sets to search. I think a field with boxes to check would be a bit easier than the scroll down menu and using CTRL to select multiple fields. Thats also the only issue I had with the old search, this one is just better so far.

Will be considered once we're up and running.

AVOID MTG Fanatic ! Remands Orders and Re-lists cards for more money!
onchange = "window.location.refresh" or a similar implementation of the same thing?
I see. Interesting!
Good point. I will look into that. They were originally links, that's why I haven't considered this yet.
