Animal Crossing: New Leaf trading cards

If you have any questions, please direct them to Kippla. I won't be on until Monday!
 
I'm gonna hit the hay and I won't be on until tomorrow afternoon, so you guys can make prototypes of cards. Please do:

Tom Nook - Rare
Eunice - Uncommon
Wolfgang - Uncommon

Just craft their cards however you like. If drawing them is too difficult, use their official art on the card. Cya!
 
Why not have item cards like gyroid, furniture, tools, ect.

Also, how about the idea of PWP cards like benches and sculptures?
 
Kippla, some questions then:

-How big are the cards (in pixels, cm, whatever?). We need a basic size.
-Is there a base format (i.e. where the text/how big the text is/a border to the card/ placement of character art etc).
 
Welp, I'm not really sure about how to go about this, but I'm good at following directions given to me, I suppose. So...

-straightens up and salutes with drawing pencil in hand-

Hi!

I am Emilio and I follow the forum since a year.
I'm programmer and I can do a programme (for Windows) to create cards. In my blog you can view an example of a programme that I create to make player's cards. (http://www.fananimalcrossing.com/p/mi-hoja.html)
if you want, I can do a similar program but in English (because I am Spanish) for this forum.

So I would like to participate in this. Thanks.
 
My quick rendition of the idea:

I'd love to design some Animal Crossing cards! It looks like so much fun!
Just right now, I'm loaded with homework, so I can't prove to you if my drawing is good, yet.
 
A more complete visual of my concept:

If this goes ahead I'll do the following sets: A (common), AA (silver) and B (special).

I just thought of an idea:

since the pictures are going to be something different, somewhere on the card has to be something like a tiny disclaimer for who made the picture. Real life cards do this all the time
 
Sorry, I couldn't make the card digitally. I'm waiting to get Photoshop when I eventually go back to school. There wasn't anything too specific on what you were looking for (visuals, text, layout), so I came up with a basic design. Of course, it needs tweaking with placement, size, color, etc. but you get the idea. If you want something completely different and gave me some guidelines I could come up with something much better. If you need a digital version or colored, I could try to do my best on Paint.

I'm liking these different template concepts. We may need to hold a poll...

what is the purpose of these cards?

Basically, we just want to be able to trade cool art cards digitally. That's a really general explanation, though.

I'm wondering if the info will fit. These are trading cards so they shouldn't be too big. If we resized that to fit a trading card size the lettering would be too small, perhaps have the image on the front, and the info all on the back?
 
Yes, that will work. Think of them like Pokemon cards. They include a load of info on one side only, but we can take the liberty and spread it out. The image and quote can be on one side, other stuff on the other side. Remember, these are free style. Design them however you like.

So are we having a dedicated template, then, or just general guidelines on size?
