These were so much better when this was a forum post with insight and discussion. Discussing two cards per set is hardly enough. Why not spend more time on at least the latest one or two? Plus, this article format is clearly not encouraging conversation, versus the forum threads had pages of responses.
The layout here is absolutely terrible. The bordered tables with default fonts look like they're from 1998 and are unreadable at a glance. Why cram the most pertinent information onto the side of each group? Putting it above or below the table would allow for more horizontal space, which would move the data closer to the column headings and make at least that better. But the information hierarchy here is non-existent.
And why not spell out what each column is describing? "Change since last week" and "Change since launch" would be a huge improvement.

If there's a de-interlacing option in the scanner program it might help. You could try color correction in-scan or use Photoshop or GIMP.
This is all true.
But if you read through this thread, it changes the thickness and stiffness of the card quite a lot.
Somehow I missed this... but thanks! The commissioner requested that I use the Temple of the False God I did a while back as a starting point, but other than that there's no specific inspiration. I think I wanted to convey a place that was desolate and bleak using a hot color palette. Most of my alters start with an idea for a color scheme.
This simply isn't true.
I'm glad to hear you reinforce this. I've made some of these myself (it isn't difficult) and the difference in thickness and flexibility is obvious, even when sleeved and you're holding two cards sleeve-side up. I won't even use them in EDH because I can feel them & know where they are when I'm shuffling my deck; it's too hard to be honest that way.
I know I wouldn't feel comfortable looking at a photograph of a girl in nothing but pasties at work; an anime girl in nothing but pasties isn't acceptable either.

It's been a while, but I think that I used regular fabric for some of the books I made. You can buy real book cloth here. If you end up using found or recycled or non-book fabric, it helps to starch it beforehand.
Try Layer Effects > Inner Shadow.
