Custom Filecards

[Oliverbox]

Hey Guys,
Here are some custom filecards I've been working on... nothing really new, but I thought someone might be interested. They're mostly old Joe characters (with a few new/custom) editions... I just wanted to make them a little more about their military qualifications.

Criticisms and questions are much appreciated.

Here's a few more... hope y'all like them. Don't be afraid to tell me if you don't.

oh yeah!....that is how they all should be...very well thought out and thorough...not just thrown together in five minutes like Hasbros...

Thanks, Eddie. That's very kind. Glad you liked them. I hadn't seen any posts about filecards around here, so I thought this might be fun.

Yeah, I don't know why they're that size. I just uploaded them normally. I'm not an expert with this kind of thing. On "the Other Site" I just upload them and when you click on them they get large enough to read.

Is there something I can do to make them bigger?

Oh how many time's I've asked that question to the skies...

I'm not sure, I'll check.. I don't think it re-sizes them automagically. Very curious!

Love the details!

i just saved them then zoomed them...still hard to read, but manageable

Why is our site's viewer so different than "the other site's"?

The forum is set to resize everything that gets uploaded into galleries. You could always try an online photo gallery (flickr, photobucket, or the like).

I like the added detail (after much squinting). Don't be afraid to us photoshop or MS Paint to touch-up (condensing and aligning; splicing some long words to the next line) the text, as that program likes to jumble everything into place. Keep up the good work!

Although in defense of the early FCs, what they lack in thick text, they make up in substance. Much of the personal descriptions in the first wave cards where no more then two sentences long, but they convey more about their personality then a paragraph long psychological report. You can tell when they stop using Hama, by how they declined in quality, and just added a lot of pointless info. The 90s, RoC, and PoC are just lazy as hell, and not worth keeping!
