AW could for the time being remove their own sbb and link yours instead.  :P Its way better.

I miss the option to search for a trait, but overall, splendid job!

Thanks.
Trait search should work in the "search everything" boz, what are you trying to find?

Multi-language support is something I plan to introduce, but I have to restructure some code in order to get it working properly. German will most likely be the first language to be added.

This is working really nice. 

Although it really needs academy cards...

Thanks for the great work, and hope to see an academy update really soon.

It's a little awkward to use on my iPhone (e.g. really small text, lots of scrolling and zooming needed to navigate between the search bars and the card names/stats, and the card image), but the fact it has the most recent Arena expansions already makes it way better than the existing official SBB. I'll probably use this as my main SBB as soon as Academy cards are in it. (Without them, I still can't build complete spell books) But very nice work so far!!

Request:
Could you put the search bar across the top instead of the bottom? That way, there would be a much smaller distance between the search bar and the top "hits" from the search. As it stands right now, they're as far apart as possible...

Similarly, could you put the card image above the book stats? This way, the SBB acts as a better card database, since you don't have to scroll to the bottom-right corner of the page after clicking on a card to preview.

In other words, have all the "critical" info near the top of the screen so you don't have to scroll around so much on small portable devices. It's nice to have a list of owned expansion sets and a sum of spell book points used so far, but I don't look at those nearly as often as I look at the card image (to make sure of card text, mana cost, spell attributes and subtypes, etc).

(Yes, I see the "hide spellbook" and "hide sets" buttons, but you don't get a card image if you "hide spellbook", and when it's revealed the card image is still below the sbp counts)

@iNano78: not really meant to be used on portable devices. What I can and will do is make the card image visible at all times even if you hide sets and spellbook. Moving the filters to the top of the page will affect usability on computers so at the moment that isn't a viable option.

@V10lentray, iNano78: I'd be happy to add Academy, but I don't own it and I don't have images/card texts. Is it available somewhere online?

Hi grga,

With success comes ... more work ;)

Requests :

1- as already mentioned above : the academy cards are still missing.
EDIT : addressed already in post above ( which you posted while I was typing this reply ;) )

2- Non-Mind creatures are currently counted double for the FM : should be triple cost.

3- Could it be made possible to sort the "Cost-column" so that it is possible to sort the book from highest to lowest cost or vice versa.

4- Same request for the "Used-column" so you can sort your book from most cards included to least cards included ( and vice versa of course )

With the help of point 3 & 4 it becomes much easier to finetune your book and decide where you might drop or add a copy of a card.

5- Is it possible to export a spellbook from your program in "Forum Code" ( like the AW SBB ) so we can post our books on the forum here ?
If yes, can you give us a short manual on how to do that ?

Thanks again for your excellent work.
You are our Mage Wars Hope in dark support days ;)

Hi borg,

1. Please see my previous post

2. I'll fix that asap

3. I need to slightly rework the code to make that possible, it's high on mu todo list

4. Could be done, but without resorting "on the fly" as you make changes (the same applies to 3).

5. Theoretically possible, but I don't know how the forum would handle cards that are not supported in official spellbook builder (best case: no preview, worst case: no game). I understand where the request is coming from, but it's not my priority at the moment (unless another 25 people ask for it).

Cards that are not supported in the official SBB just appear in the same format but you don't get a picture afaik
check Disperse, Demonhide Mask, Arcane Ward for example
