I made the sideboard area finally, but I don't have an appropriate image to post as shadowfist.jpg. The back of the cards would be perfect if anyone has a clean scan. littlemute 00:26, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

I put the HOMO OMEGA image up in the sideboard. Fair use: It may get deleted for (we may only be able to post the back of the card or a logo). So if someone sees it go bye bye, and has a back of the card scan, that might work better (though the HOMO image is awesome). littlemute

My gut feel is that Ting-Ting may be the most appropriate card as she's the iconic SF character, either that or the flying-kick logo. The "Terms of use and fair use guidelines" on the Fist website is generally quite liberal, but (not unreasonably) says: "You may not scan or reprint artwork without the express permission of the artist." I'll dropped an email to ZMan and check. Callum 13:00, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

That was quick:

Subject: Re: Use of logo & card images

I'd prefer you use the Ting Ting flying kick logo.

I'll upload a copy of the Ting Ting logo later today. Callum 14:09, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "What's good about Shadowfist"

I'm not sure that the aforementioned headline is a good one, it seems unencyclopedic. I'm having trouble thinking of a good alternative, though. "Interesting features of Shadowfist" might be good, but it seems quite vague. Anyway, it should be re-titled.--Benfergy 21:40, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

I hate it too, but I was running out of creative spooge when I wrote the original document. How about "What's AWESOME about Shadowfist?" or "Why Shadowfist Kicks Ass!" Better those, while purile, than something like "Market Differentiators" or "Consumer Benefits" littlemute

Conveying the spirit of the game whilst remaining at the same time true to the encyclopedic format of this site is going to be tricky. "Distinctive features..." is probably better than "Interesting features...". And surely it should be "why Shadowfist kicks butt" rather than "... kicks ass"! :) Callum 09:05, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
