The first thing I noticed is that they had Alpha, Beta, Unlimited all with the same release date, which is obviously incorrect This has been interesting reading. I need to see if I can find the lists I printed out while in Korea. Those were early but not sure I still have them. Tav; I sure hope the...

Beta Starter Decks with Alpha Cut Rares

Regarding the Beta Starter Decks with Alpha Cut Rares... Were the Alpha Cut rares in Beta Starters actually Alpha Rares, or were they miscut Beta Rares? If they were miscut Beta, then it should be possible to find an Alpha cut Volcanic Island, even though that card was not part of the Alpha print ru...

... continued from above... Next I put the promo cards into the list. The Ice Age Promos have the old white mana symbol and were sent to be printed at the end of January 1995 (before the rest of the Ice Age cards).

How reliable do you all think are the release dates WotC states: http://www.wizards.com/magic/TCG/Article.aspx?x=mtg/tcg/products/allproducts BillBo I just gave it a precursory glance, not an in depth analysis, but I'd say it's mostly reliable, with room for improvement.

I've looked at this on a few different machines now... On my work computer, 1341 x 1219 is way too big as I can barely see any of the right card without scrolling. 1000 x 908 is a little too big as I need to scroll to see the right border of the right card. 900 x 817 looks great On my phone, 1341 x ...

I'm not sure, but it might be different for each person, depending on the size of their computer screen. I know I run into that issue more frequently when viewing Librarities on my phone (small screen) than I do on my regular computer (average screen).

What do you mean by "distort a topic"? Is that when you have to scroll to the right to read all the text?

Any recommendations for what size is OK?

Wow, thanks for that link! When I get some time (in a week or so), I'll look through all those images and post here which cards show the Bold copyright. A quick glance shows that not all Italian Second Edition cards pictured on that site have the bold copyright, but possibly it is just coincidence t...
