{"ops":[{"insert":"hi, i just noticed archidekt has a forum and that this thread exists. i know it would be hard to add many features and moderate them\nwhat i would like to ask is to add an option for a custom commander card in the commander decks\nin my imagination, i see the option of adding a card in the command slot, so an user would\nclick the button \"Add Custom Card as your commander\";"},{"attributes":{"list":"ordered"},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"the symbols of the five colors + colorless appear and they are buttons that are to default as grey (yeah, i know the existance for colorless is a nightmare for that);"},{"attributes":{"list":"ordered"},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"the user selects the color identity of the commander;"},{"attributes":{"list":"ordered"},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"a very naked template picture appears in the command zone that has the pips of the colors selected that can't leave the command zone and that can't have addiotional tags (sideboard and maybeboard included)."},{"attributes":{"list":"ordered"},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"after that there could be additional options such as the correct mana value or the name.\n\ni would like this so that the deck doesn't appear in EDHREC and the website would add the \"Rule Zero\" tag to the deck (it can be removed, no reason to add a weird code that makes the tag unremovable)\n"}]}

{"ops":[{"insert":"\tI really like this idea, I really want to make a deck using my own art to play with online, But I understand how it could be difficult to have people manually filter through peoples deck list.\n\tAnd i have read many comments mentioning a NSFW tag which I think is the most viable option. But instead of thinking of it just like a regular deck tag, like budget, and Elves, why not make a slider on the deck creation page that says if your using a deck with custom art and then make a symbol that shows up on people deck image or something. then you can make the NSFW tag on top of that as well.\n\tThen just to be even more safe just make it so that you can't upload custom art for the deck image, only official art.\nIt isnt a fool proof idea but I think more people would appreciate it than not, thank you for your time.\n"}]}

{"ops":[{"insert":"I'm working on a commander deck with a custom commander pair of my pets, so it would be awesome to be able to have custom cards on Archidekt. As for how to do it, you could use an upload png sorta thing, or maybe put a link to a service like imgur or something. If you are worried about users putting explicit stuff in their decks, you can by default make decklists with custom cards private only. plz add i wanna fight with my birds as my commanders\n"}]}

{"ops":[{"insert":"This would be great. Very interested. I know nsfw was a previously mentioned concern. Not sure the best solution, but maybe something like decks with custom cards have a pop-up before you can open them that says i agree to proceed to this deck which may have nsfw content. That way you don't have to police the cards people upload. Otherwise, I'd also be happy with a simple blank card that i could fill in text boxes. Just enough for reference and prevent the deck from showing errors.\n"}]}

{"ops":[{"insert":"Would really love a custom card feature as well. Basically the first thing after starting to play MTG was making custom cards, and I would really love to use them as either commanders or in the 99. Until now I'm basically stuck writing the card names into an Excel file which is a real downgrade to a real deckbuilder. I don't really see a huge problem with NSFW or stuff either, just have people tag their cards and it will selfregulate. On the sites where we make those cards the same rules apply anyways, so we are used to it. And a second toggle for just not being show decks with customs or hiding customs will solve the problem of other people who aren't interested in customs.\n"}]}

{"ops":[{"insert":"I think the best way to implement it would be having it as a checkbox option on whether or not you see any of this new feature defaulted to off that way people who want to see it can, confusion will be a nonfactor since you can just turn it off or on. Then for import, I'd have blank card and just let people use other card creators download them then import them onto your blank card from their computer. lastly for art, you could try just selecting a card with a replace art option to import and image and auto size it onto where the art is.\n"}]}

{"ops":[{"insert":"I know this is an ancient post and Idek if there has been something implemented since this post has been made.\n\nBut I just wanna throw it out there that I wouod apperciate some of these things being implemented.\n\nI made a Watership Down theme deck and would love to be able to do something as simple as adding a name to a card/epithet to a card so I can mark what card represents what characters/things from the book. Being able to swap the art for a proxy art with those characters would be nice too. \n\n"}]}
