A downloadable tool

People were interested, so here ya go. This template should allow you to make your own custom joker with a realistic-looking description, without having to manually draw all the effects and details. 

If you have any questions about the template, feel free to reach out.

Happy Joking!

The .xcf file works in GIMP and a couple other programs.

The .tiff file works in most programs I guess, but it is a bit larger.

Tried out experimental and found a few issues you might not know all of:

1. You can no longer space out the card by adding spaces on either side of the title

2. Can't set the colour of the joker text nor its outline

3. Tried to use a square image (like photograph is not the normal ratio) and it was stretched (I think, maybe just cropped?)

I'm still very happy with the tool! But I ended up using the non experimental version for my needs this time. Looking forward to the day your tool is all anyone needs!

Sorry, I think you commented on the wrong page. This is my page with the GIMP-based joker template, you're comment looks like it was intended for Ofmonstersandken and his Balatro Card Factory program.

indeed I was, had both open and got mixed up, cheers for the heads up otherwise I'd have never noticed!

I hadn't even considered that people might find this outside of Reddit, so here's my post explaining how to use it and stuff, I'm not typing all that again lol.

I reuploaded it just now so the Xmult should work... Or maybe not, who knows man

How do you open/Edit it?

My post on Reddit should have all the info you need. I know it's a lot, but bear with me:

Version 5 is out, please read devlog above.

This is getting version updates with some quality of life fixes, so I recommend checking in and re-downloading it to get new versions.
