Don't quote it, that way the spam remains even after a mod deletes the post.

I have 33 German scans of the different promos (MA user contribution).
P.S. Uploaded to contrib/Goblin Hero folder.
P.P.S. Forgot we have another pack of German promos scanned by randerscheinung. So many scans to process... and no one to do it :(

Yes of those who replied to this thread showing interest in contributing, Woogerboy21 has done some core / expansion set processing. Moomarc is very busy. Tanthorjen has his regular guy doing Theros now, but his guy is very busy and looking to retire. We might have Theros in ~1 week. Tan is still looking to hire a replacement Photoshopper, $0.40 per card. If you average 20+ cards hourly, you'll make $8+. Once we have that secured, all the English sets will be covered, but we still need somebody for foreign sets.

I've been working through the C13 set but with the holiday season I've been running low on time as well. I figured I would start on Theros after I finished it but before I do that I'll check to make sure some one else hasn't done it.

OP Updated:

I added a new recommendation for organizing the scans, see "Classify and Name the Slices". Basically it is very difficult to handle things when there are multiple contributors. My technique makes it easy. I also added more information to the "Save Variants, & Upload" step, like which file extensions to use and the final folder structure. I've also updated the Photoshop actions.

@detonator - We can definately use your help. Looking forward to your samples.

I did contact SoldT back in march. I had him make a couple of small adjustments and his photoshopping was very good. It would great if he could help us wrap up some of the sets we haven't released yet, but he seems to have disappeared. I sent him a PM a while ago and he hasn't read it yet.

Yeah we all get busy from time to time. I'm sure he will show back up at some point.

OMG.... word of advise (and I may be the only idiot out there), if your using Photoshop CS3 (anything really before CS6).... upgrade to CS6. The cropping tool is SO much better.

That and in CS6 hit the caps lock key to change your cursor to a more accurate cursor when using the perspective crop tool.

So who wants to be a hero and crop a few sets that I would like to redo using color profiling? I would crop things myself but I am apparently terrible at it.

Here's my new processing kit V3 RC1: https://mega.co.nz/#F!3tVTwQLQ!ZG55_cypM8V3wduEU0lMAA

I will work on creating in-depth how-to videos which explain how to use the kit.
