Card Request?

[Hockey13Playa]

On MLB's Instagram they were using this template to make posts for newly traded players:


I thought it was a simple yet effective design. Was wondering if something like this could be made into a card?



Could be modified to "Presented by OOTP" with the OOTP15 baseball logo of some sort.

Would even be more bad ass to take it one step further for Hall of Fame Cards, Award Cards, and just a general card like the above picture.


I wouldn't be against making or attempting to make them if I knew how/if there is a tutorial out there?

Anyone? Pretty please?

Bent/warped text (on the pennant) can't be done. It would have to be replaced with a logo. I would be more than willing to do these, not tonight though.

Figured as much. Can text be "straight" but on an angle? If that makes sense? The back of the card could match something similar to the borders then with the typical card stats. If I may make one request the white, orange, and blue outline on the card if that could be a little thicker... its very thin in their design.


But awesome, I appreciate your help dude! I wish I knew how to do these... along with jerseys lol.

Nope. No angled text at all. Would be hard to program too. Will start on these whenever I get a chance.

Maybe the flag can be angled and the text and logo straight, I will leave the alterations up to you

Thanks again man!!

That design is basically 1965 Topps. Look it up, and do it as that!

Good looking out!

Here is a sample of a card front & back from '65:



However if I may choose to be picky I like the one I posted as it's a little more "cleaned" up for a modern look. The head on look in my example is simple enough too with out any poses and works well totally up to you though Ike as you're the one kind enough to make these!

Also just for a reference I found a few cards with this little trophy on them , could some how maybe use these for awards, rookies, HOF? Just an idea!

The card is going to be cleaned up no matter what. It's hard to make a card look "vintage", without using some sort of texture.

Going to start on these today... I think I'll use the 65 Topps design, but I don't want to deal with the random backs and such so I'll brand these as "MLB On the Move based off 1965 Topps" or something like that.

You rock!

Front is done... Ignore the stuff on the other side for now...

Pitching stats and rest of back finished... will do batting stats and post.
