Conspiracy hasn't even been completely scanned yet. Commander 2013 has been processed, but smaller sized images not yet made. Journey into Nyx, and Born of the Gods only need color correction and proper sizing. I'm super busy with work, and I just can't squeeze these in. Threre's a thread, Photoshoppers Needed, calling for assistance with the work done here. If somebody becomes available, these sets could be wrapped up. By the way, Decked Studios has cropped and dusted all the cards from these sets (90% of the work).
Our regular scanners here, Teppic, Woogerboy21, and Tenminutegod have elected to get scanner profiling targets to simplify color correction in the future, so this task can become easier and quicker, but we're not there yet.

For XLHQ white bordered cards, the convention is to use black corners, right? I haven't gone through them, but at least for 8th edition white corners were used.

Huggybaby, what software are you using to zip up the archives for the torrent?
I know we're pretty traditional around here, but I want to make a suggestion.
For the torrent, I find the whole "tiny" / "full" / "crop" / "xlhq" / "xrop" / "4khq" naming scheme to be a little clunky. I realize that fulls and crops were born out of tradition, and that there's value in using different file extensions so that the images can co-exist in the same folder. But from a new user standpoint, these labels aren't intuitive. At a glance, they don't tell you the two variables across the images: 1) resolution and 2) is the image a full card or just artwork. I think as a file extension they're fine. But for folder organization, I'd like to see something more straight forward. Here's a potential folder and name structure:
/Expansion Sets/Theros/THS-EN Crops 100DPI.zip
I think that spelling out the set name is useful for the same reason: it's more intuitive to people who don't know the set code. Then by using the Set Code and Language code from M15 cards, multi-lingual support is possible. The number in the file name is the resolution of the images. The zip file name formula would be:
SetCode-LangCode + (Cards, Tokens, Fronts, Backs, Variants, Crops) + (100, 200, 300, 600)DPI
"Variants" would contain Avatars, Planes, Schemes, and Conspiracies. Maybe another term should be used, I don't know: supplement, complement, extension, others, misc, "Command Zone".
I know it's a LOT of work to manage a torrent. So if this isn't feasible, that's fine. I would however like to use this pattern for sets that are processed and released by Decked Studios.

I have the directory setup to get pics folder, but nothing shows up. Only when I change "xlhq" to "full" do the pictures show up in mws. How do I change all xlhq to full or is there an option under preferences to see xlhq? I have changed all the preferences under image view and I am stuck.
EDIT: Looked at the torrent again and see there is a folder with fulls. Whew! What is XLHQ for anyway?

Actually, if it's about Defeat a God and Battle the Horde, I did them. They just haven't been released I think.Teppic wrote:I've scanned and uploaded the challenge decks. I don't believe they've been processed yet.kudit wrote:Anyone have the Challenge a God challenge deck scans?
