Example below is the specific Plaines from Eldraine.
[example set="ELD" num="250"]Plains[/example]
If you were to only use the "num" option for Plains, there is always a chance that there is another Plains with the provided number which means you may not get the intended result. Using the set code is the best option.
Documentation - MtgCardImg
This embeds a card image for Magic the Gathering. If we are missing the image, we will display a text version of the card instead.
The tag name is "mtgcardimg". It must have a start and end tag.
[example]CardName[/example]
Options can be provided with this bbcode with the following format:
[example option="value"]CardName[/example]
If a certain option does not accept a value, the option only needs to be present within the bbcode.
The text used for the card link. This will replace the card's name which is used as default.
set=value
The 3 letter code for the card set for this card.
Examples:
M21 - Core Set 2021
JMP - Jumpstart
AKR - Amonkhet Remastered
ZNR - Zendikar Rising
LEA - Alpha
num=value
The exact number of the card.
You should use this with set for the best results.
size=value
The width in pixels of the card image.
This defaults to 265. We do not recommend changing this because Magic cards do not scale well.
discuss
Adds a link to a card's discussion thread in a button below the card image.
These do not exist for older cards. If the card does not have an associated thread, it will not provide the button.
rating
Adds a set of rating stars below a card's image.
Basic Usage
The contents of the tag is either the card nameor the id of the card in our database.
If you want to use the database card id, these are the numeric id found in the card's URL.

Blizzconline is more towards the middle of February and not the end. I definitely expect them to be talking about the new year at the event and cards in some capacity (either the mini-set or the new full set) so it should make for an entertaining weekend.
Temporary pricing while they remain exclusive to the December 25 present unlocks =)
Also worth noting that account management is successfully letting you choose which flair to use now. Sorry about that, I didn't push out an additional change that was made to our form for it to allow it to save correctly.
Cosmetics still needs a huge overhaul in account management. I don't like that you have to guess what stuff is going to look like.
We had presents available for 38 hours which I feel was enough time for people to come and get them. We had the notice here that said they'd be available come December 25, posted about their availability in a frontpage article, and made sure there were timers so people knew how long they were up for.
FWIW, you did unlock them. Several hundreds of snowflakes, 2 avatar borders, and a couple of new forum titles. You should have received a corner popup on the site when you clicked each of the presents telling you what you received :D
The gifts aren't going to be present exclusive though - they will get added to the shop in exchange for snowflakes after a brief exclusivity period. The real gift is that they don't cost an arm and a leg to unlock them :D
I do wonder if Iksar will head on over there finally. In my mind, I always assumed he'd move over to SD since he felt like that "core" part of Hearthstone that isn't around anymore.
It isn't that I'd like to see him leave Hearthstone, he's one of the more communicative people on the team which is nice to have, I just think he's potentially being held back by Blizzard.
I'm going to add a Snowflake leaderboard for total collected, which was surprisingly absent initially (derp), but no plan for individual totals (if people want this, let us know and we can definitely find a place to put it). Currently, you can check your site achievements to see snowflake counts when you hit certain milestones.
I don't like this
I'll post our internal documentation for it. Never made this public since the editor still needs buttons.

It's easy.
I see gif, I throw snowball.
That's now been fixed! Sorry about that, that usually isn't the case for the MTG clues.
Expansions are released in April, not March.
Blizzconline is more towards the middle of February and not the end. I definitely expect them to be talking about the new year at the event and cards in some capacity (either the mini-set or the new full set) so it should make for an entertaining weekend.
I feel like there's a good chance at BlizzConline they'll unveil cards and release the mini-set shortly after which means no cards in January.
This one will last through the weekend =)
The 5 of us with the Chenvaala header now own it!
Everyone else that decides to pick it up as well should properly receive it now upon purchase.
Looks like the package didn't have the associated reward, oops!
Going to run a query to get this fixed for everyone. Sorry about that!
That's been fixed :D
Always happy to take credit for Avalon's work. As long as I don't have to eat a shoe!
If you get targeted hard by people, you can accumulate quite a few snowflakes
The issue with notifications for currency being under the nav will be fixed this morning.

We're introducing a new cosmetic today called Pins! This is the first part of how pins will be used on the site.

Honestly, it is a limitation to how our system works for the tasks and was hoping no one would point it out :P

At the moment, the text for Mythgard cards isn't in our database, so yes, definitely something wrong. Huge oversight and we'll have it corrected TBD.
