A good way to print nice proxies?

[tito del monte]

Hey,

I'm stranded in London, UK with few people to play Vintage with, so in an attempt to be proactive about sparking interest in the format, or at least having a few people to play casually with, I wanted to put togethr some nice-looking, full-colour, 100% proxy decks, so I can put them in the hands of players who don't play Vintage and hopefully get them hooked.

I was just wondering if someone knew of an efficient way of doing this - ideally a site that will compile the pics in the right size to print for an entire deck - a little like how Deckcheck does, but with pictures.

This site promised much, but it doesn't seem to work:

Does anyone know of anything similar? I think I might weep if I have to download every single pic individually then use my abysmal Indesign skills to cobble big printable pages together :/

Any help appreciated!

I saw very nice proxies the other day, the guy just put the original cards onto his copy machine, and then made copies, and cut them out. You have the perfect size and colors. This does mean you need the cards to copy first.

Type in the name of the card you want. Once you get your card, scroll down to where it says "print proxies" and select your quantity by clicking that number. Print (the cards will be sized properly). Repeat for whatever cards you need.

This is the most efficient way that I know of that currently exists on the Internet.

Magic Workstation also offers some proxy printing capabilities, but I encountered some bugs and you can only print one page of nine cards at a time anyway. You're welcome to try that too, but I think this is just easier.

Thanks for the tips guys!

@Yare: that site looks pretty useful - good that you can do four at a time of a card. Will try and get to work early tomorrow and give the colour printer a good bashing

someone really needs to invent some kind of entire deck mega proxy compiler though...
