Hey, I'm all for a laissez faire system and I only recently discovered your ap (it's amazing, btw. I love how much you've included and how easy it is to use. Though I do miss my D20's a bit...), I haven't even bought the full version (YET). So you've got my support, keep up the good work. =3

I highly recommend buying the full version.

One of the best things I have used it for is a deck tester for pre-sleeve test draws - like, you've built a deck and want to test it, but you don't want to spend the time to put them all in sleeves and your cards are too valuable to risk too many shuffles and you're not sure if your build is gonna work or not.

You can do that normally, sure, but scanning the cards makes it do much easier.  Make sure you have a good light source and scan away!

Also multiple decks and all that - everything is awesome.

I may have possibly missed it but is there any reason why I cannot take pictures of cards I own and send them to pitor?

😳I don't think he's into that sort of thing...

Just jokes, in what way do you mean? We Beta testers have been known to email him from time to time and I have included screen caps? Is that what you mean?

Biff11482

Nope it's all good I meant there all upset about the pics right? So we take pics of cards we own and send them to him.

The Problem is the Copyright of card and the Art on it that belongs to wotc. So even if you would take pictures, it doesn't change the Copyright law regarding the Card on it

So aret after eBay listia and every other site? Selective outrage dosent hold up.

This Sites are not using Pics of only One certain trademark and Even if the pictures are deleted after a maximum of about 2,5 years or they have a certain permission

There is an area called "Fair Use" which allows you to use copywriten (copywrited?) material in a specific way: parodie, selling the product, etc. The problem is it is not easy to know where the "property line" is without a "surveyer" (lawyer).

Well now I think I'm going to see how these copyright shenanigans work out before I do. Besides, I think I'm only really interested in the deck builder anyway, I don't have a dataplan so some of the applications are not as useful -- Which is why it's so cool you can buy pieces if you want.

I agree, just getting the tools you want is a good model. I'm not sure, but I think if you opt to be a Beta tester, you get access to everything, and new features too!  ðŸ""

Nope, being a beta tester is just a duty, all work and no fun. Nothing is unlocked for beta testers and they are actually a bit screwed as in beta the shop doesn't work.

You don't, I was a Beta Tester before I purchased multiple decks and an offline cache, without the purchase they are unavailable.

Sorry!  My bad. 😖😷

I really hope WotC gets the message. If anything they should be asking you how to improve their app. I have so much time invested in my decks here it would be such a shame to have to start over, especially with an inferior app. Keep fighting, iMTG. We are behind you.
