As I move through uploading and accepting and working on getting card images to show up so everyone can use them in the playtester and add them to their decklists and so on, I am adding some cards that may not have entirely "correct" imagery currently. Such as Akroan Hoplite . BUT, at least he will show up in your playtester so you can see how he functions. And I promise, as soon as I get the real image, it will be up.
Also, please be patient, getting these card images to actually show up AND have the image hover takes A LOT of my time. I spend probably 5-10 total minutes a card before they actually show up, and then it takes sometimes 5-10 hours before the hover feature works. And there is a lot in between that happens as well.
If anyone wants specific cards worked on priority-wise, feel free to comment and I will do my best to get to them quickly.
Ah, I was worried that people were gonna snag uploading Akroan Hoplite from me! Darn! :P Only joking.

Actually, the image is what I was apologizing for, click on it Dritz, that's the best image out there right now. I actually am not even uploading new cards, I am simply spending tons of time going in and modifying images to get them to even appear on the card description on cards that have already been submitted. It's frustrating at best.

Thats quite unfortunate. I'm, for one, quite appreciative of that effort. Keep up the good work. I'll be here all night so send me a line if you can think of something for me to do that I'm not already doing. :P

I started with Gods Willing , will work through from there. And my point was Goody, just people that are waiting on 1-2 cards to playtest a deck they want to use post-rotation, and they can't because those two cards aren't showing up yet, could mention that those cards would be nice to see first, because right now I am pretty much just going down the list, and if it helps someone else out I don't mind picking ones they need.

All I would say Dritz, is make sure you load them as JPEG files if you do images, it seems the site likes those better on the first go of submitting better. I've had a lot of them show up first time round. Thanks for doing what you do man.
September 14, 2013 12:16 a.m.
don't take it all upon yourself ShadowLand! you're not obligated to get these in. the community can wait a bit. don't stress out over small things like these. we all appreciate your effort!
September 14, 2013 12:28 a.m.
Wow, i tip my hat to you good sir. That is a lot of effort, I guess I'll submit these request
and lastly
Thanks for all the hard work!

Oh, I wasn't stressing bro. Just letting people know that it's not just a point and click process. And giving people the option to suggest what they would like to see faster than not. Thanks for the support Tempest

i'm busy submitting cards! whatcha talkin bout. let's split the work. i'll submit the cards and you add the images :)
September 14, 2013 12:39 a.m.
I've done card images before. It can be fun and I appreciate the effort sir.

DaggerV - will try to get to them as soon as I can. Thanks man!
September 14, 2013 12:44 a.m.
haha, I was tagging you because Shadow's tag leads to that deck that you share a name with. I could get behind that idea though. Maybe post names of cards as you upload them? Just slap them on my wall and I'll make images for them.
September 14, 2013 12:45 a.m.
Dritz- i'm going in order on the mtgsalvation list. i'm almost done with white. i'm notified even if the deck is the one linked so don't worry about it
ShadowLand- don't know if you can add this, but we need a creature type (centaur advisor)
September 14, 2013 12:46 a.m.
ShadowLand says... #20
tempest - I cannot do that yet, neither can Epochalyptik i don't believe, but he may be able to contact someone who can such as yeaGO!

ShadowLand says... #21
Dritz, would you want to add images to Gods Willing and Fleecemane Lion , I just approved the clearing of the old images that i submitted, it will still say they are there, just testing a theory here
September 14, 2013 12:50 a.m.
ok. its for Lagonna-Band Elder so when they do, someone add it if they can. Leafs_suck, you wanna help imput pictures?
September 14, 2013 12:51 a.m.
ShadowLand says... #23
Okay Dritz, nevermind on those, they just showed up :)
September 14, 2013 12:51 a.m.
ShadowLand says... #25
Gods Willing , Fleecemane Lion , Mistcutter Hydra , Arbor Colossus all have card images that appear now, hopefully soon the hover effect will follow.
September 14, 2013 12:53 a.m.
all white cards (i think) are submitted. i gotta go now so someone else can input other cards.
to anyone who is helping, list of theros cards has almost all of the cards that have been submitted to T/O. feel free to comment on there for discussion, clarification, etc... also post which cards you add so i can add it to the list.

@tempest and ShadowLand: I added the Centaur Advisor subtype.
September 14, 2013 1:08 a.m.
ShadowLand says... #29
Epochalyptik, is there any way you can add the "Legendary Enchantment Creature" type and the subtype "God", that would be helpful as well. Thanks already for the other subtype!
September 14, 2013 1:10 a.m.
its not hard DaggerV. go to cards -> theros -> add/fix cards -> and start adding info. look at my deck list for the ones that have been submitted. i also did all the white ones too.
September 14, 2013 1:14 a.m.
Satyr Shaman is needed for Firedrinker Satyr .
Also, ShadowLand if I may be so bold, I would like to request Dragon Mantle and Coordinated Assault be a little higher in the priority list than wherever they used to be. :P Thanks!
September 14, 2013 1:17 a.m.
Thanks tempest, it's past midnight here but what's left I'll look into, though at the rate it sounds like you guys are moving might not be any left.
September 14, 2013 1:20 a.m.
ShadowLand says... #33
Epochalyptik - Satyr Shaman is also needed as a subtype, I'm sure that's what Dritz was getting at. :)
Also, can do Dritz, I may have you add images for Thassa, God of the Sea and Temple of Deceit if they don't show up in the next few. They are being exceptionally stubborn.
September 14, 2013 1:22 a.m.
ShadowLand says... #35
Thassa, God of the Sea ,Horizon Chimera and Boon Satyr all have working images now, hopefully soon the hover images will follow

Dritz, got the Dragon Mantle and Coordinated Assault images to show up in the card description finally, hope the hovers start working soon!

TribeTime87, I went ahead and messed with them like the others I have done so far tonight and have gotten lucky with Purphoros, God of the Forge and I will keep an eye on Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx and Stormbreath Dragon for you in the morning.
But for now, it's time for me to get some shuteye.
September 14, 2013 3:06 a.m.
Thanks for all the effort, Everybody. He time & work is much appreciated by the general community.

I for one would like to thank you for your hard work. Being such a tech oriented guy I can fully appreciate and realize how much work it is to make a great functioning website that works the majority of the time even with high server use. It surprises me how people just think you can just "upload" an image and it works great for all functions. not to mention the play-testing function I can imagine to cause quite a few migraines in itself. So frankly I would just like to thank you for investing so much of your guys time, energy, and most likely money into such an amazing too I use everyday. keep up the great work guys

We are also in need of Centaur Wizard for Chronicler of Heroes . Thanks in advance!

@Dritz and ShadowLand: Satyr Shaman is now a recognized creature subtype pair.
Goody says... #2
I think Forest really needs to be one of your top priorities right now, my deck just won't look good without them
