So just curious on who might be interested in this. Prior to the scans that various supporters have submitted I was passed along a set of images of the entire Theros set. After some discussion with the CCGHQ team it was deemed these images were unusable as they most likely were a scan of the Theros Fat Pack pages containing the card images. Even though they are not of the quality you should see in the CCGHQ team's release I was wondering if people would be interested in the images processed in a slightly different fashion than what the CCGHQ team does (but very similar)? I have attached one of the card images of what the results of a 200dpi card would look like. It may give the users wanting something better than the gatherer images something to tide them over till the Theros CCGHQ images are released.
Edit:
Took a moment to process the actual scan of the card to give people an idea of the quality difference.

Release them. It's pretty much a straight upgrade over the existing Gatherer scans.

Alright, let me finish working on the rest of the images (I only have done about 1/3 of the set) and then I will put a torrent together with them in it. I updated my first post to show the quality difference between a real card scan and the scan of the fat pack page.

Agreed!
They're much better than what is available at the moment & I would love to have them to play with.

Anyone happen to have the following token they can scan? The original contributors scan (midge) is badly scratches and wont be usable.

We have a new scan processor, Decked Studios. They have been approved by Extreme to proceed with this set and should have the work completed soon.

Alright it seems that the freelance photoshopper at Decked Studios has resigned

So that's a setback for delivery of this set. Tanthorjen is actively seeking a replacement. If anybody is interested in doing paid photoshop work, read my
card processing guide to see if you're up to it. You can
contact Tan using his website.
Here's the job posting:

Would you like me to roll through the Theros and C13 set's in the mean time? I'm pretty certain I have managed to work through all the action file questions I had so I shouldn't need to release a set half a dozen times.
