This is what they look like in the wiki. I guess the header / footer is two tone - I didn't notice on the print version, because I am a little color blind - it's more clear on the digital. To me the text box does not look split):

The color difference is definitely not that prominent in the text box, but the bottom half of the text box is greener and the top half more yellow in all three versions.

Is it possible to create a color scheme like Pasture? (header / footer full Treasure color, text block full Victory color)

When if I chose Victory as Primary and Action as Secondary (or vice versa) it does the two tone card.

(also, does anyone know the custom color codes for the official card types? When I recently was doing a custom type, I wanted to start with the Treasure colors and tweak that)

Isn't Pasture a two tone card, too? Like this?

and here are the color codes:
var normalColorFactorLists = [
      ["Action/Event", [1, 1, 1]],
      ["Treasure", [1.1, 0.95, 0.55]],
      ["Victory", [0.75, 0.9, 0.65]],
      ["Reaction", [0.65, 0.8, 1.05]],
      ["Duration", [1.2, 0.8, 0.4]],
      ["Reserve", [0.9, 0.75, 0.5]],
      ["Curse", [0.85, 0.6, 1.1]],
      ["Shelter", [1.05, 0.65, 0.5]],
      ["Ruins", [0.75, 0.6, 0.35]],
      ["Landmark", [0.45, 1.25, 0.85]],
      ["Night", [0.3, 0.4, 0.45]],
      ["Boon", [1.4, 1.35, 0.55, 0, 0, 0, 1.7, 1.25, 0.65, 1.95, 1.6, 0.4]],
      ["Hex", [0.75, 0.6, 2.1, 0, 0, 0, 0.8, 0.8, 0.8, 1.0, 0.75, 2.1]],
      ["State", [1.1, 1.3, 1.3, 0.6, 0.15, 0, 1.55, 1.15, 1.05, 1.4, 0.65, 0.45]],
      ["Artifact", [1.15, 1, 0.75, 0.3, 0.15, 0.05]],
      ["Project", [1.15, 0.95, 0.9, 0.4, 0.2, 0.15]]
   ];

Hi spineflu,
the icon image is drawn with a height and width of 80 pixels, and resized if the original is larger or smaller.
So no, should be no problem. I just tried with some examples from google image search.
You could dm me the link and I can check your example.

Maybe this is possible by copying the local app data of your browser to your new PC. Or you could try accessing the data saved locally by the website via the browsers web development tools and copy it into a file.

Currently, I have no time to implement a real export function for the favorites, but it is on my to-do list.

Unfortunately, copying the URLs would have been my fist suggestion, as the favorites function actually does nothing different than just storing a list of URLs...

Easier than photoshop is just to add a few spaces in front of your types.
But I've adjusted the generator. Your error should be solved.

I am happy somebody has already noticed it  :)

In general, the favorites function is not that different from bookmarks in your browser. As you maybe know, the card generator stores all parameters in the URL. The favorites are these URLs stored locally in the browser (similar to Cookies). An advantage is duplicate checking for new favorites (it does store the exact same parameter combination only once) and the search function. The title is generated out of the template type, the price, the card types and the card title. But be careful, if you delete your browser data, all sorted entries are gone again.
Or if I program a bug...
Real favorites or exported pictures are saver.

So what to do with it?
I wouldn't use it to store entire expansion sets because there is no export function yet and as said, it might get lost easily. But for a quick access for current work-in-process cards or own templates, it might be just right.

Why did I do it?
I was in the mood for programming and liked to explore the possibilities of the browsers local store a little bit more.

Additionally, I did also add a simple web app service worker, that caches all card source files. Hopefully, this increases the performance of the generator.

PS: as already said by Freddy10, the image issue is most likely related to how that webpage serves the files. But I haven't found the reason...

I was able to download the card. But then I realized I don't actually know how to copy a downloaded image into the forum. How does one do this?
You have to upload it at a image holster and use the file url to include it. For the correct syntax, just quote a post with pictures to see the code.

The Victory token symbol doesn't seem to work. It shows up all grey. I don't think I'd recognize what it was if I didn't tell it to put a victory token symbol there.
It's the symbol used by the German prints by the publisher ASS Altenburger and should depict one of the physical tokens of empires or prosperity. Sad, that they decided to change that from the English originals, but at least with that option it is possible for me to keep all my German versions consistent within themselves.
So it works as intended but is only of limited use for you guys...

2 solutions : add this token or ... a way to add some special characters linked to some little image that we can use in description.

The second solution would be a great improvement ;-)

That was quite easy to add. I hope one custom token is enough. Making it variable would be a lot more work...
Here is your example: Indulgence Trade

I still couldn't solve the problem with icons in single lines, but at least it is possible to use the workaround mentioned above.

I also tried to create a $1 card that involves Silver.
Not sure if it is weak enough...
I think the card is fine, but it does not need to cost $1. There are two cases where you buy it: In the opening for trashing (where you'll have at least $2), or mid-late game for extra buys, where - if you are going to need extra buys, you probably have more to spend than $1. I think the card is fine, but it costs $1 just for the sake of costing $1.
You are right. It probably works the same at $2. So just pricing it at $1 for the sake of being special is rather pointless.
Kept the card as it is and only rised the price.

Dear -dg-, I am sorry.
I managed to Prince a Tracker quite early. By this, I fully realized the benefits of topdecking.
The Kingdom also contained Secret Passage, Harbinger and King's Court.
For Payload, I then used Butcher and Rogue.
Playing all that stuff gave great deck control, but took way too long...

Your explanation is exactly correct. Almost all trash for benefit effects look at the card characteristics after the trash (Ritual being the exception). Not a difference normally, but can be with Inheritance, as you witnessed.
Okay, thanks. Makes sense, thinking longer about it.
At that moment I first thought "Wow, cool synergy!" and then got disappointed  :-[

Hi all,

I just played game #25030628 and inherited Patron. Later I tried to trash an Estate with Sacrifice, but only got 2 VP.
Shouldn't I have got +2 Card and +2 Actions, too? Is this a possible bug in Dominion Online?

The only other explanation I could think of, is timing. If the Estate is already in the trash when Sacrifice looks for its types, it is not mine any more and the Inheritance effects are not active any more. But I am not sure about this.

Thanks for clarification

I've already posted this earlier, without much feedback. As far as I know, reusing old ideas is not forbidden?
In case I have a new idea, that is suiting as well, I'll replace this post.

Yeah, there is a problem in the regular expressions, that for the rules of when to bold text...
I am not very good in regex, but I'll try to fix it and refine the rules to better handle these cases.

When removing the space between plus and coin or VP, it is correctly recognized as symbols, that should be bolded. But as these are now alone in a row, they are formatted differently than in the text. And Coins and VP symbols alone are much bigger... currently also if there are leading operators.

In the meantime, you can trick the generator into thinking, that there is other text in the line by using invisible special characters like the non-breaking-space:

Death or Glory
Event, $0

After this turn, put all cards from your deck and discard pile into your hand, trash your hand, gain every non-Victory card in the supply, shuffle your hand into your deck, then draw 5 cards.
Really bad without Outpost or Fleet.
Dunno, seems quite decent with Triumphal Arch/Orchard/Obelisk/Tomb/Keep.
Also works with Ill-Gotten Gains

I have a few questions about the ShardofHonor card generator
1.  The Primary vs. Secondary option see to be 'flipped' - I have an Action - Duration - Reaction card (same type as Caravan Guard)
     But in order to get the correct color layout (to match Caravan Guard), I have to make the primary as 'Reaction', then secondary as 'Duration'.
     This seems counter-intuitive to me.  Sure I can adjust the sequence, but maybe it is just me that has noticed this?
2. I could not figure out how to use the 'Additional Bold Keywords' option
3. Is the split position options, in place for a reason? Are there Expansion option that have the coloring not using the 1/2 option?
4. VP Token option used in any of the current expansions?
Thanks
DooWopDJ

1. I agree with you, but if I change it now, all links will be broken...
2. For example VioletCLM's Sellsail
3. The split position could be used to achieve an effect as in Pasture or Distant Lands, where the green coloring is not perfectly in the middle.
4. VP Tokens are used in the German prints of Prosperty and Empires (by ASS Altenburger) instead of the normal VP symbol. A stupid decision of them, but I rather have all my cards consistent...

Hi Shard of Honor,

I see that you are using Trajan Bold Pro and Minion Std Black, both are copyright by Adobe. In the way you are using those fonts, the full font program is downloaded by the client. This is clearly a license violation. Therefore I tried to find some free and open source alternatives and found Cinzel and Crimson Text. What do you think?

Cinzel Bold
https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Cinzel

Crimson Text Bold
https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Crimson+Text

You are right. Thanks. Not the best idea...
I copied that part from the original generator.

Now, the font files are not hosted any more inside the generator. Instead, it first tries to find these fonts on your local computer, and otherwise a cascading fallback is defined to load them or similar replacements externally. This might result in some visual differences.

Because the color combination is nice and there is still relatively much design space left, I try the next Night hybrid.
Where is the Night/Treasure and the Night/Reserve?

Worth 1VP for every 3 Night cards you have (round down).

I think I really like faust's suggestion. If there is time, I'd like to officially change my entry to this one.
As the contest is not rated yet, there's still time, so go for it  ;)

It could be reworded. (Only personal preference on the sentence structure.)

You may reveal an Action card from your hand.
Each other player may reveal a copy of it from their hand and if nobody does, play it twice.
Otherwise +2 Cards.

Have you seen Asper's Edicts?

You have some nice ideas here, that have potential to change the game in a substantial way.

Cursed Lands is basically an initial embargo on province and colony and does not sound fun to me, as it only slows the game down.
Ruined Lands might be more interesting as a kind of attacking project.
Protecterate could be reworded as: Duchies are also Reactions with the effect: ...
The others sounds like fun occasionally, as they lead to quicker games. But on the long run I don't think I would use them very much, because in my opinion it is more interesting to gain these advantages by building a nice deck or adapt, if the kingdom doesn't offer the possibility to do so.
