			Once you have the ID for a card figured out, there are a few types of images that might be uploaded, as follows:

			<big><code>LOTR-EN01S012.0_card</code></big>

			<big><code>LOTR-EN01S012.0_portrait</code></big>

Created page with "There are multiple images associated with each card, including: * Basic English card * Foreign variants * Tengwar variant * Foil variant * Alternate Image variants * Promo va..."

New page

There are multiple images associated with each card, including:

* Basic English card
* Foreign variants
* Tengwar variant
* Foil variant
* Alternate Image variants
* Promo variants
* Literal Reprints (1st edition -> A -> B)
* Figurative Reprints (re-releasing Elven Bow again)
* Promo editions
* Oversized editions
* Misprints
* Probably like two or three others not here or something

This demands an ID system to keep all of this straight, particularly when uploading images to the wiki (as there are no folders or folder analogues, so everything must be differentiated by recognizable name).

Decipher's original ID system was as follows:

<big><code>LOTR-EN01001T</code></big>

* LOTR of course being the game code (Decipher had to account for other games)
* EN being the two-digit language code, in this case English
* 01 being the two-digit set number
* 001 being the three-digit card number
* T in this case being an optional one-digit disambiguator, usually for one-off cards such as Tengwar.

This is a good foundation to start with, as it addresses most of the above issues. Here is the fully expanded version to use here on the wiki:

<big><code>LOTR-EN01S012.0</code></big>

* LOTR
** Game code. Can be one of:
***LOTR
***HDG (hobbit draft game)
*EN
** Two-digit language code. Can be one of:
*** TW Tengwar
*** DE German
*** ES Spanish
*** FR French
*** HU Hungarian
*** IT Italian
*** PL Polish
*** PT Portuguese
*** SV Swedish
*** ZH Chinese
* 01
** Two-digit set number
* S
** Single-letter subset identifier. Can be any character A-Z as needed, but these are the mainstays:
*** S Standard (the base version of a card)
*** A Alternate Image (including RF Rare Foils)
*** B Beta Image
*** D DGMA Series
*** F Foil
*** L LOTRO D-series
*** M Mega-sized Card
*** N Misprint (even the M was misprinted)
*** O Legends Masterwork
*** V Virtual (PC supplements)
*** W World's Apart digital card
* 012
** Three-digit card number (sets are usually sorted by culture and then title/subtitle all alphabetically, with sites and alternate images at the end)
* .0
** Revision number. First version should be .0 (and this should not be ommitted), then increase the number for each revision. Revisions should be reserved for material changes to the card, such as rewording or errata.
