gradient or thicker outline of card names; either works for me

I like the version without the 'top gradient'.

I don't think the smaller boxes will be easy to read on a card printout, they could get well below the probably 8pt print.

first off: I currently don't have much (or any) control over the outlining of the card title. that's a function of the program i use to compile the card, an older version Ankha's VCM (I still haven't gotten the new one to work properly).

regarding the readability and gradient (particularly on Zephyr): they can't all be winners. Some artwork will naturally lend itself to the full bleed format, some will look awful, regardless of how awesome the actual piece in question is.


Someone, somewhere in this thread suggested for one alternate version or another, that there be no 'card background' for the card title. One of the best functions of that background is to make the card title readable.

so, i've got a john van fleet shaped artwork boner. deal with it.

clan novel full bleed bullshit.

Those look like they should be printed por legal play! Very Nice!
Is the full bleed layout option still being tested?
