You may have noticed that I've been uploading a few MTG card images for StrategyWiki lately. Do you find that the one that you want most is left out? Here's how to get it in there:

Step 1: Get a name
I can't make a card without knowing what to name it. This is the thing that appears in the top left of the card.

Step 2: Pick a color
There are a few to choose from, here is a complete list:
 * Colorless (dark brown)
 * Artifact (light or dark grey, please specify)
 * White
 * Blue
 * Black
 * Red
 * Green
 * Any combination of White/Blue/Black/Red/Green (please specify if you would like it golden with colored borders or hybrid, also horizontal or vertical)

Step 3: Pick a frame
The default frame is "modern," however, you may choose from the following frames:
 * Modern
 * Modern Split
 * Modern Flip
 * Modern Textless
 * Modern Extended Art
 * Modern Promotional
 * Planeshifted (aka Colorshifted)
 * Old
 * Old Split
 * Tokens

Step 4: Pick a border
The default border is "black," but you can choose from the following:
 * Black
 * White
 * Gold
 * Silver
 * Custom (provide the RGB or HSL code in base 10)

Step 5: Pick a cost
This is the "casting cost" that goes into the top right.

Step 6: Pick artwork
The artwork of the card. Please don't pick something that would be copyrighted, as the cards are released under the GFDL (Fair Use is NOT a valid reason). I will NOT create a card unless I have this, so I'll just pick something at random if you don't provide it.

Step 7: Pick a type
The thing that goes on the typeline. Keep supertypes and types to actual supertypes/types and keep subtypes reasonable.

Step 8: Pick some abilities
Not required, but nice to have. I'll remove any really weird ones from your request, so don't request them.

Step 9: Pick some flavor text
Not required, this is the italic text that goes under the rules text for flavor purposes

Step 10: Pick a watermark
Not required, you may choose between the 10 Ravnica guild symbols, the 5 basic land symbols, and a combination of two basic land symbols.

Step 11: Pick a Power/Toughness
Only required if the card's type is "Creature." It will be disregarded otherwise.

Step 12: Leave a message on my talk page
With all the info from above, I'll make your card and upload it. Enjoy!

Other Cards
I can also make Magic Vanguard cards, VS System cards, and Yu-Gi-Oh! cards. Provide me with the appropriate info for each of them if you wish to have one of those instead.
