I don't remember where I got this (I should probably start keeping track), and it's got all four rarities in the same svg, but here you go.

Today I had reason to create svgs for the Magic Origins double-faced card symbols.
As usual, my use renders them at 75px tall or less, so I didn't put in any effort beyond what's visible at that size.
I'm using the raster images from proxygen for the Innistrad block/SOI symbols.I don't know what I'm going to do for the EMN ones; I can't find any imagery that's clear enough to work from, my camera phone is no improvement, and I don't own a scanner. Help?

- Relatively low confidence; the halftoning on the printed cards is at the same scale as the details.

Looks great to me! Any chance of creating this SVG for the other rarities?JohnnyTH wrote:Hello guys, I gave it a try for the Eldritch Moon symbol, i'm 95% satisfied with the results, I should tune some curves a bit more but I already spent a lot of time on this.. can you give me some feedback on the technical side since it is my first submission here?
EDIT: I used a clip mask to reproduce the shape on the tip of the tentacles, since it seems that I can't reproduce the same result with a simple path, the thickness of the white border is smaller in those spots, so i just shaped on the inner side and clipped the external side, is that fine? is there any better technique to achieve the same result?

Just a matter of changing the colors in the gradients. You don't even need a svg editor to do it; svgs are plain text files. Here's what I used for Manalink/Shandalar.

Hello, am I alloved to post on this thread?
Anyway, I am looking to proxy an eldrazi deck but I really want it to be obvius that it is not a real card. I was thinking of adding a watermark, perhaps the mark form the eldrazi side on eldrict moon.
How would I go about adding the watermark in the background of the textbox on cards?

Hi
Does anyone have Set Symbols (PNG or SVG) for:
Journey into Nyx Challenge Deck
Duel Decks: Zendikar vs. Eldrazi (I know there's a link above but only the Mythic is showing for me)
Eldritch Moon
Duel Decks: Nissa vs. Ob Nixilis
From the Vault: Lore
Thanks.

Aren't the symbols on in the Journey into Nyx challenge deck just the normal JOU set symbols?
EMN mythic is here, rare/uncommon/common here.
FTV:Lore has a reasonably-sized png here. It's common-colored, not mythic, but that should be easy to fix.
I haven't seen a Nissa vs. Ob Nixilis symbol yet of high enough quality to vectorize.

Yes, I just checked, they are the same. The one I use, needs probably an upgrade.Korath wrote:Aren't the symbols on in the Journey into Nyx challenge deck just the normal JOU set symbols?

I'm the last person to know how to fix a symbol set héhé, I use one on Magiclibrarities but maybe it can be upgradedKorath wrote:FTV:Lore has a reasonably-sized png here. It's common-colored, not mythic, but that should be easy to fix.
Yes, I didn't saw any either, for the moment.Korath wrote:I haven't seen a Nissa vs. Ob Nixilis symbol yet of high enough quality to vectorize.

I just noticed the new shooting star symbol for promo cards. Scroll up on that page to see the old version. The tail has been shortened. The MPS logo is also on that page; I'm not sure if it has been vectorized.

The copyright date on those is 2014; the one higher on the page, with the longer arc on the tail, is a 2016 promo. Maybe it was a one-off for those five lands?
I've seen a vectorization for the MPS symbol before; I want to say it was in BaconCatBug's compilation. (I lost my entire stash recently in a hard drive failure, so I can't confirm.)

This is the MPS symbol I have in my collection.
The judge lands look like a one off shrunken star symbol

Hey folks... I've been dormant for a while but I've come out of hiding with a request, mostly because I really can't find the symbol I am looking for anywhere.
It can be seen on this article from last year when they introduced the Legacy Cube as an alternate to the regular Legacy Cube on MTGO.
http://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/feature/worthy-legend-2015-11-10
Now I didn't have the MTGO client open at the time to be able to get a screenshot of this phenomenon, but WotC have provided us with a lovely high resolution PNG file that's a good basis to craft the other rarities from.
So my question is quite simple, has this been done or am I bringing up this symbol for the first time ever?
