Topps 1988
This is my version of Topps' 1988 card set. It's another one with slanted text, this time for the player's name. What I did was remove the player's name from the slanted ribbon in the lower right (replacing it with the player's position), and I created a small box extending from the ribbon for the player's name.
I tried to make a generic version of this set, which would work for any team's nickname. However, the font just looks terrible when I try to get it big enough to match the card style (esp. since OOTP font choices are so limited). And since the Bookman font seems to be what Topps used for the team name, I opted instead to make dedicated cards for each team. So that does mean that these files are not generic and cannot be used for any team nickname; they can only be used for existing MLB teams. All teams today are represented, along with the Expos. There are also files for the Devil Rays, Indians, and Senators, and an Oakland version that says "A's" and not "Athletics" on the front. In addition, for Philly, Seattle, and Miami there are alternate cards with different team colors. There is an All-Star design that is based on Topps' actual 1988 all-star card, and I also made my own All-Star design. And I decided to have some fun on the cardbacks with a series of baseball haiku. ![]() Place the xml files in your bbcards templates directory (for OOTP23, it's Out of the Park Developments\OOTP Baseball 23\bb_cards\templates\ootp23), and place the images file into your bbcards images directory (for OOTP23, it's Out of the Park Developments\OOTP Baseball 23\bb_cards\templates\ootp23\images). All of the templates have a line in them that uses my team backgrounds file (which can be found here: https://forums.ootpdevelopments.com/...d.php?t=328973). If you want to take the team backgrounds out, edit the xml file by taking out the token with [%TEAM_NICK]_[%RANDOM_NUMBER].png. |

There's a link to the file in the first post, under the picture with all of the cards ... is it not working?

And because I am completely anal retentive ... having just noticed that "it ain't over till it's over" has eight syllables, which violates the conventions of haiku ... here's the edited version with only seven syllables. Just right-click on the image and save it.
(And, yeah, the Terry Steinbach card above has been corrected. Like I said, anal retentive.) P.S. The reason that the Steinbach and Hershiser cards above say "1985 Major League Baseball Record" is that I generated the files from the same 1985 league I created to make the 1985 cards; the xml token in the all-star cards is for the current year.

Another great job. I like the fact that you moved the pic enough as to not cover the team name. Awesome job.
