We still don't have M15 hq, I think? Now even deckedbuilder app has HQ pictures.

See the "Scans Needed" thread - we still need some tokens / tips / ads before this set is ready to be released.

For the love of Pete, release what you have, update it later. It's almost the end of October.

I think it would not be a problem for anybody to play all except 3 cards in good resolution. Because currently I refuse to play M15 (if game mode allows), because of the low res pics.

What percentage of people who will be using these pics actually care about the tokens/tips/ads?

What's worse: instituting a new policy where late tokens are released later, or letting the least important images hold the entire process up?

M15 released on July 18, 2014. That's over three months ago.
Conspiracy released on June 6. That's over four months ago.

@jameslkight, @Protoman

C'mon people. This project is run on free labor. If you want things done your way, try participating or sponsoring the work done. I just don't have free time to throw into this for nothing in return.

I will release M15 and Conspiracy this week, but after that my involvement around here will be sparse.

Just wanted to thank you for all you have done here for all of us. I know it can be frustrating for people to wait for sets to come out, but as you said, this is all done voluntarily and no one gets paid to do anything here.

The days of full set releases of card images soon after they are put on sale are gone.This has become evident over the last couple of years and unless there are other people who have the free time & resources to do the work, this is the way it will be. Such is life, so you might as well get used to it.

I thank ALL of the people who have for years given allot of their free time and have worked hard to gather up, process and release all of the sets of new Magic cards so that we all could benefit from it. You should all be proud of the work you have done for this community and we all owe you allot. I wish there was a way that we could compensate these folks for all that they have done. Our collective thanks is the least that we can do and express.

Thank you! =D>

I am immensely grateful for the work you guys have done for the community. My post was less a criticism of the long delay and more a questioning of the policy of holding sets back so that the extras can be included in their full release. These boards have been saying that the majority of cards have been scanned for a while now--I wanted to put my two cents in to say "don't hold them up on account of tokens/tips/ads."

Thanks again for all your contributions.

What is this supposed to say?

"UP!" = "They are UP!"
or
"UP!" = "Please upload them before the release of Magic 2028"?

Its actually a expression used on forums like this, the intention is to just bring the thread up to the attention of everyone, by moving it "up" the threads list.

Isn't that "bump"?

Either way, Wizards announced this year that it's phasing Core Sets out due to generally lower interest in them. I feel like the long delay on the release of M15 HQ pics is just more evidence of this!

I'm waiting for corrections from the Photoshopper at Decked Studios. As soon as she delivers, I'll post this set. She has gotten really bad lately; unresponsive and delayed work. I suspect they'll be posting a job opening soon.

Hi skibulk, first of all thanks for what you're doing, and now some error reporting :-)

Phyrexian Revoker is missing a part of the P/T box.

Altac Bloodseeker, Battlefield Forge, Belligerent Sliver have a very black strip where the misc card info is, compared to the rest of the border.
