Pesterchum TCG

[TheMagus]

Spawned from a discussion in the Homestuck RPG memo.
Here we can discuss and post cards and the concept, as well as in #PesterchumTCG.
Handing this off to TP now

The rules are this: you can only get the cards of people you have met on pesterchum. You can also trade for people you haven't met, or cannot find, with others. In that case, you delete the card you traded, and cannot get another one until you re-add the person once you see them again.

We now have a template so you can make your own ChumCards!


Current Trading Cards:

Thank you MM!

Alright, as stated, the concept came about in the Homestuck RPG Memo.
For some random reason, people were trading Chums like... Well, trading cards.

So I got the Idea to make an actual trading card!
Here's the first one I made:

It's rather sloppy, as I was pretty excited about it.

Here is the refined Template!

ChainmailleAddict made a pretty cool Trollian Card Template!

If you don't have a Player Sprite, you can use this to make one:http://www.majhost.com/gallery/Anti2...Rips/bases.png

Any suggestions? Feel free to share!

I made a new version that's not JPG. I'll upload it in a few mins once I make an example.

[Joshy]

I have the Bitmap here...
I'll try messing with Photobucket to see if I can get it to work.

[Joshy]

Alright, Photobucket is dumb.
I uploaded the File to Truploader, so that should solve the problem.

[The Cool]

k
saved the bitmap
might make a card
what do the stats do

[Joshy]

At the moment, they're just whatever you feel like putting. :P
If it some point in the future, this would start being popular, I might work out some sort of system.

[TheMagus]

At this point, they have no confirmed use.

Attack? Defense? What do those mean? Surely you mean Vim and Pulchritude, or Aggrieve and Abjure?

That being said, this looks cool. Now if only I had artistic talent...

Hey, good point!

Also, you don't need any artistic talent. :P
Just download "bases.png" from here:http://www.majhost.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=231161

Yup! That's how I did mine. Well...that and Paint.

[Joshy]

MS Paint has to be the best Image Editing Software.
It is simply the best.

[Coryn Sken]

oh i am so on this thing. /makes leaving noises

[The Cool]

...i would seriously suggest upgrading to paint.net
just sayin

also those cards up there are JPEGS FFFFFF

[hitty40]

Heh.

[Joshy]

The Bitmap is right there!

[Coryn Sken]

also just as an idea. for like every card/character have a troll version as well? just a thought. a trollcard to contrast the chumcard if you will.

[The Cool]

...seriously wtf guys

every card except the template is still jpegs

come on guys were better than this seriously

Agree. Someone's gonna need to change the file type.

[Joshy]

Okay people, before you complain, take a second to look.
See the second post by me?
It has the bitmap picture for the template, and even if you miss that, there is a link to a direct download to the bitmap file.

[The Cool]

...seriously wtf guys

come on guys were better than this seriously

i am referring to the cards made by people already, not the template itself
you know
like trustyPenguinCard.jpg up there

[Joshy]

Oh, I'm just too lazy to change it. :P
If it bothers you, I can change it, but I gotta wait for Magus to update the little "collection". And to change the template in his post.

[The Cool]

If it were up to me
i would establish a PNG standard
since those dont have any compression that i am aware of
and also allow for transparency, which we might use later for Enamel Cards or something
