I agree with tagging the cards, but what does the c|<cardname> do? Right now it pops you to an edit screen then pops you back. --Shadowin 15:18, 10 April 2006 (CDT)

you have to hit ctrl+F5 first, to make your browser happy, and then if you have any anti-popup stuff running, tell it to allow popups from this site. Then, it'll open Gatherer windows for the cards.VestDan 15:57, 10 April 2006 (CDT)
Eventually I will get rid of the "dummy" window that you sometimes see flash by, but it will require coding in a deeper location. I'll talk to Brion VIBBER.Voice of AllTalk 16:04, 10 April 2006 (CDT)

Do we really need the list of cards & the Complete card list from Gatherer link at the bottom? Kind of redundant. I say no, there shouldn't be a list. No other artist on here has a list of cards plus their link to the gatherer, they just have the link. --GeoMike 12:36, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

I agree. We can create such lists for other artists as well, but they shouldn't be in the article. At most in the subpage. For now, I say kill it. --MORT (T) 20:41, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

Mirrodin? I know she didn't have any cards in that set, but I thought it was her absence from Legions and Scourge that got fans in an uproar.--Filby 00:03, 22 May 2008 (PDT)

I don't have the exact reference, but I remember the Art Director at that time said her art was too organic, girlish, and cute for the metallic setting of Mirrodin. --Japoniano 09:17, 22 May 2008 (PDT)
I'm pretty sure it was the tail-end of the Odyssey block he was talking about, what with all the freaky mutant critters running around.--Filby 11:57, 22 May 2008 (PDT)

Rewrite

I massively rewrote this entire article. Added the citations and corrected the entire controversy thing that was for some reason attributed falsely to Mirrodin. Added a gallery as well, but I'm not really sure what artworks of hers I'd consider necessary, iconic, or noteworthy since her cards are so similar in style and blend naturally together.--Cashew 08:08, 7 September 2010 (UTC)

Gallery Highlights

Artwork Quality Relevance Description Replace?
Channel Very High Medium Alternate art of an iconic card. From The Vault: Exiled Not recommended
Elvish Piper High High Fairly well known elvish card. Artwork is representative of her depictions of both green spells and elf creatures. Not recommended
Gaea's Blessing Very High High Artwork is of a well recognized and powerful green card. Artwork is representative of her Golden Age of Illustration inspirations. Not recommended
Persecute Artist Low Very High Artwork is an un-Card that parodies the controversy revolving around her. Only to improve quality
Sustaining Spirit Medium Medium An angel spirit and one of her first illustrations. Slightly representative of her white spells and angel creatures. To improve quality or relevance.
Sylvan Echoes High High Card is not memorable. However it is highly impressionistic and relays that side of her artwork very well. Not recommended.
Vitalizing Cascade Low Medium A non-memorable Stream of Life card. Represents her depiction of the female form and Golden Age of Illustration. To improve quality or relevance.
Wilderness Hypnotist High Medium A non-memorable Merfolk from Shadowmoor. It is the anti-thesis of her normal style which makes it slightly unique. See also Bandage, Bitterblossom, Enslaved Scout, Dark Ritual, et al To improve relevance.
