Some Mirridin's artifacts have shades of pink

Reading the status list, the Mirrodin set is OK, but looking the cards I have noticed that Chalice of Void has a shade of pink, and, more or less, all the artifact have shades of pink.

Is it only mine impression? The original cards have the same color? Is it planned a re-scan of the set?

Thanks in advance and sorry for my poor english.

this is the version i have. Is it pink ? I don't see any pinkishness. However, they will definitely be redone at some point in the future.

The Mirrodin artifacts were a little lighter than the current ones, just as the 8th's. With the release of 8th they changed the layout of the cards to the current one.
After player feedback they changed the color of the artifact to a little darker one, because when sorting, players easily mixed them with white cards. In a block where half of the cards were Artifacts, that's not very handy.

I don't see any pinkishness.

The card in the zip is:

and this one is not the one posted by extreme.
As I can see, the image of extreme are correct, mine no.
Probably the zip is not update, because also the other artifact cards have, less than The chalice of the void, a shade of pink.

The entire Mirrodin block needs rescanning (or updating, if they've been rescanned). Mirrodin block's cards are blurry and too bright. Example:

I know that the Mirrodin block artifacts are supposed to be lighter, but the text is blurry and the colored cards are far too bright. The same is true for the Onslaught block, Guildpact, and, to a lesser extent, 7th Edition.

Every other HQ set is flawless and awesome. =D>

hmmm very strange. It seems I have much better versions of all mirrodin block and onslaught block. I will contact huggy asap.
About Guildpact - does it seem blurry ??
7th is the only one that we don't have in high definition yet, it's the oldest one in hq that hasn't been replaced. it will be redone.

Thanks for the report creepycrawly. It could be that those links broke and I replaced them with ones from the torrent, I'm not sure.

<edit> I found the Apocalypse do-overs. Links are in the links list.
<edit> Found DIS do-overs.

Are you saying that Mirrodin, Darksteel, Fifth Dawn, Judgment, Onslaught, Legions, and Guildpact all are wrong?

no, guildpact not and i don't know about judgment and darksteel. The others aren't ok, judging from the samples and comparing them to mine.

OK, I've verified Mirrodin is bad, I'll fix it and get on the others. I checked the old forum and don't see anywhere new ones were announced, so maybe I wasn't notified? Or maybe it was in a PM?

Thank you, guys. :)

No, Judgment is great. It's Onslaught, Legions, Scourge, Mirrodin, Darksteel, Fifth Dawn, 7th Edition, and Guildpact.

Here's an example of a Guildpact scan compared with a Dissension scan:

Definitely not the same.

creepycrawly, where did you get the bad ones? From the torrent, or the mediafire folder, or MWSPA?

Thanks for the comparisons, it's exactly the info we need.
