The only fault I find is that UP decided to imprint their name and the Magic logo at the bottom. If you sell arty stuff, can't you treat with respect and not put your trademark in a big visible portion of the art? Please?

I just signed in to make, in essence, the same comment. They look so tacky. Even for more common items, like playmats, I try to obtain ones with minimal amount of superfluous text. I would rather have the art uninterrupted by garish logos.

Seriously considering a history of benalia for the old wall. Great idea for UP to sell these as accessories.

Definitely interested in the History of Benalia one, it's one of my favorite pieces of Magic art to date. Would buy several if I could get my hands on ones for The Mirari Conjecture, Phyrexian Scriptures, The Eldest Reborn, and Fall of the Thran.

This all the way. On these scrolls, the logo completely breaks it for me, as it has done on so many UP products before it.

Stay reasonable, be mindful of your expectations and don't feed the trolls.

With the wall scrolls in particular, it almost feels like I'm paying to buy an advertisement for the game instead. It doesn't help you give similar things to the LGS for free precisely for the advertisement (granted I know wall scrolls versus commercial posters/stands have material differences, but visually it would feel the same to the passer-by/visitor when the logo is there).
Even if it costed more due to printing or some other process, I'd rather they outright had a full-fledged logo/advertisement on the other side of the scroll (it'll be wall-facing anyway). Something about paying for an advertisement irks me when it comes to things for display, which is why the playmat issue is a lot more split - I personally see it for usage than display and while I will still pick the art I like the most (I do have the luxury of choice), I'm more willing to take the advertisement tagging along with it than to pay more for the same utility. I can see why some people value playmats more as a display than utility item though. The scale does go further, hardly anyone complains about deckboxes, for example, since most people see it as utility than display.

On another note, I would love it if they did the Zendikar Expeditions on wall scrolls (*cough*please do Misty Rainforest first*cough*)
