How does one make decent Magic: The Gathering proxies?

Question

I'm talking about the kind that you print out and afix to a card. The group I'm playing with allows them but I just can't seem to figure out the dimensions and programs used.

Answer 1

Hmm good question.

Answer 2

Hmmm ... Photoshop is also a good program to make proxie. Perhaps you can get an answer at http://magic.niche-educator.com/

Answer 3

Take a land and a magic marker.

Write the name of the card on the land.

Boom.  Perfectly effective proxy.

Just make sure to know the card wording ( or better yet bring a printout of it with you ).

For me though, proxies take the fun out of Magic.  Making due with what you have forces you to think of new combos and tactics.

Answer 4

i think Magic Workstation has a proxy generator. if you update the themes and the card art, it's one of the best out there. Just the right size, too. But... it takes a lot of time and effort to update. Just so you know, though. and MWS is still great for playing M:TG online.

Answer 5

go to http://magicseteditor.sourceforge.net/ and download the set editor. It ca help make nice proxies and is fun to play around with.

To make a proxie, you can go to cardkingdom.com or any other card site you know and save the image of the card you want to make. Then use a photo editing program to crop it to just the picture and load it into the card in the program. Then you can just type the text into the text box.

The program allows for every type of symbol and reminder text. You can even get the border colors however you wan them.
