What size? I can create LQ for everything that's available. HQ is available in the CCGHQ releases thread.

Sorry, I have no idea. Can you give me a specific size?

BTW, here's all my tokens. Should be up to date. Please report any errors.

Is it possible to post more lq sets on here, mostly modern. I really don't need 15000 pics on my phone. I thought it would be neat if the app only downloaded individual images as needed, but that would probably be hard to set up.

Gatherer Extractor is fantasic for this.

http://www.mtgsalvation.com/forums/magi ... abase-pics

I use it for Cockatrice and Forge. If I notice Forge doesn't have a set I want, or is hung up on getting it through its own methods, I fire this up and blammo, I got what I want, with a variety of various settings.

Right now, I'm redownloading all of gatherer's cards because I want all my cards to have the same dimentions and their accompanying border, so the sake of uniformity. I prefer Magiccards.info but Gatherer uses smaller image sizes, and my old crappy laptop has a premium on HHD space.

I really have to second this! I recently starting using it with Forge and it is dead simple to use and FAST. No muss, no fuss! Just select the proper directories and hit OK and in a short few minutes at MOST you have the card art you've craved!

Hi to everyone. I hope all is well. I have a newbie question regarding the cards picture downloading tool mentioned above and MTG Forge.

After I've used the tool to download the cards picture I want, will the tool automatically install them in Forge's directory? Or will I copy/paste the pictures to the Forge directory and how to I find the path?

Thank you for the help and reply/ies. More power to this forum.

Hi Iczewoulfe,

All you need to do is specify the two following directories: the res directory (Forge Resources Folder, and the Cards folder. So for example, my Forge resources folder is: D:\Forge\res so that is the directory I enter in the top field. For me the cards directory is C:\Users\[username without the brackets]\AppData\Local\Forge\Cache\pics\cards

Once the two directories are specified, click OK, then click Start Download. The program will begin by parsing the edition files then download the card images to their properly named subdirectories. i.e, the way Forge and other programs organize. I THINK this is the same naming convention as Magic Workstation. Anyhow, the process is automatic and you don't have to copy or paste anything.

This really is a brilliant and very easy to use program.

Best,
Vlad

My card image updater tells me that 21 cards are missing.
How can I find out which 21 cards these are?

I really don't want to check every entry in the deck builder if there is an image or not.
There must be an easier way (I hope). But how?
