So as i understand, all other infomations will be inside [ ] ? the set infomation alway need even for card just not appear again in different sets or have different artworks or just the card name is enough ( avoid lot of actions for artwork arrange treantment ) ? the size you mention in the example is to tell program not scale the lq artwork to the default size for artwork or something ( so user will know which artwork still lq and can help me to find better quality artwork )? How about the artwork show in many sets ? will be [Set XXX] [Set YYY] ... and so on ?

The naming method is not a big deal with batch rename

I don't know what did I put the size for. Just to show that any data looks better in square bracketsthe size you mention in the example is to tell program not scale the lq artwork to the default size for artwork or something
I suggest [Set XXX,YYY] as it is faster. Do not do it manually, I will teach Mtgdb.Util.exe to do the renaming copying data from Artist and Tags Attribute to the file name.[Set XXX] [Set YYY]

So i will keep the old method of add infomations in attribute and upload file to mega, then the upcoming Mtgdb.Gui after download artwork images will rename to new setting for get the faster load artworks ? We still need the naming method if want to keep infomation about the real size and medium as i suggest not messing up with current rules

I expect that space is not necessary. Both
should be interpreted as Thoughtseize
- Code: Select all
Thoughtseize.[16x20].jpg
Thoughtseize.[Size 16x20].jpg
should be interpreted as Thoughtseize

I just tried with Thoughtseize.[16x20 Oil on Masonite].jpg and it works
Maybe you try to zoom a card right after restarting the program? In this case you may get no artwork because they load additional 10 seconds.
Also the images are only searched after program startup. Any renamings you do later will only take effect after restarting

Tanks!
Good to feel my program has grown enough to deal with it by itself

Mtgdb.Gui v 1.3.5.21 - amonkhet
by hidalgo » 24 Apr 2017, 03:17
- Added temporary images, both small and zoomed, for AKH and MPS_AKH sets. The images were downloaded using Gatherer extractor. To get a zoomed version waifu2x command-line utility was applied to original images. Then both small and zoomed images were added a black frame.
- Supported flip cards from AKH set (like Heaven/Earth) naming to find matching images.
As allways you can upgrade using 'Update' window from whithin Mtgdb.Gui
NOTE: pricing and translations to non-english languages for AKH and MPS_AKH sets are still not available.
