Updated to get all new card sets

Hi,

Just a small update to the application to be able to automatically download new cards and sets. Just click Import | Import new cards in the menu (it may take a few minutes to complete).

(We have started playing Magic again after a break...)

Hope you enjoy it the application. Some of friends thought the download url I used earlier was a bit "shady", so I have moved the files to a different location.

Download new version

Please keep your files in the data folder if you have registered cards etc. It is also a good idea to keep backup of files in this folder if you have registered your cards, decks etc - like I have :)

Time to share my application

Hi to all you Magic: The Gathering fans out there!

I have been playing Magic for quite a few years now. But A few months ago I thought that it would be nice to have an application where I could register all my cards and be able to search them in an efficient manner to create new decks and improve my decks.
As you know there are plenty of web sites that have the functionality to search for cards, but I have found all of them to be very inefficient. Searching takes too much time... So, I decided to create an application to help me and my friends with a few things:
  • Search for cards
  • Register owned cards
  • Register wanted cards
  • Create decks
  • Import decks or list of cards to quickly be able to browse through them
  • Read official rulings about cards
Now I feel the time has come to share this application, "It's Magic", with other Magic players. I hope you like it :)

Download It's Magic

A few notes:
  • Please read the ReadMe.txt (in the downloaded zip file) to see some tips and shortcuts in It's Magic
  • This application requires Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5, this can be installed using Windows Update
  • Unzip the ItsMagic.zip to a place where you want to run It's Magic from
  • Images for the cards will be downloaded as you browse the different cards, so in the beginning you will need an Internet connection when using the application.
