Create Your Own Trainer Card

Dude, this is fricken awesome.

If you like, I could do some templates you can use for it, since I did used to make them for people.

If you have some templates you want to submit to use in it, that'd be great. I'm fine sorting out my own ones, obviously, but the more the better. For comparison purposes if nothing else, this is the base image used right now:

To adapt a new template into being used takes a fair bit of mucking around and a lot of trial and error, so although there definitely will be new templates available down the line, they wont be in batches - maybe one every month or so at best.

Thats crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Although why do you have to put your wii friend code.

A) It's not your Wii Friend Code, it's your Friend Code for Diamond/Pearl or Battle Revolution. Rather obvious if you ask me.
B) You don't have to put it in, if you leave the field blank it will simply put in 0000-0000-0000 as a default.

That's fantastic, I've always wanted someone to do something like that. One comment; changeable backgrounds would have been nice.

See above, on their way, albeit slowly.

Pretty cool. There are some things I dislike, such as the ugly disclaimer at the bottom. Perhaps it should be replaced with a logo in the corner?

Otherwise, very nice.

It's not so much a disclaimer as a "Make your own Trainer Card like this at this address:" sorta thing. I really don't think a logo would be as useful for that, which is why I went with simple text at the bottom. I dunno, I think it stands out enough for people to take it in and hopefully visit the site themselves to make one but blends in enough that it doesn't really attract your attention away from the main focus of the card... but maybe that's just me being used to seeing it after a fortnight... Anyone else got any views on that subject?

Incidentally, as it has been asked a few times, Shiny Pokemon will be made available soon(ish). The reason they aren't included right now is 'cos each of the Pokemon portraits used (that's two for each Pokemon, 986 images) has to be made individually and manually (there's simply no way to do it automatically, any attempt to do it would end up with belly shots of most Pokemon...) and I wasn't really up for doing another 986 right after doing this lot just for shiny Pokemon.

When I have a few days down the line where I can devote a good clear couple of hours a day to get it nailed, then the shiny Pokemon will be included to choose from. For now, though, I think it's a less essential 'extra' more than anything else.
