Episode Design Cards

This is something that I think would probably benefit you all very much.
I'm pretty sure that Aki (and maybe some other people know too) know what an Episode Design Card is.
Episode Design Cards (Also used for movies and are also called Scene Design Cards) are references of
characters and objects within an episode between or during scenes. It shows different lighting and designs
for different parts of the animation.

Here is one I made for my own personal use. (DO NOT USE THIS BECAUSE I BASED IT OFF THE CARTOON NETWORK
EPISODE DESIGN CARD.)

EDC are actually exponentially larger than the one I made since when you do it YOU MUST MAKE THE DESIGN HUGE
for resize.

Example : Adeventure Time Jake EDC for episode 'Gut Grinders' http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3317/4581264159_806af34120_o.jpg

EDC are also used for effects and objects.
I am willing to make you all an EDC of your own. Or you all can create your own.

(Off Topic: Btw, MS paint users, resizing pictures often give them more smooth look and are less pixel-like.
Try drawing huge [2000x2000 - 4000x4000] then resize to make it look more smooth. The larger it is the
smoother it will be. It can also be done in any art program. [when you resize in MS paint you often see % so
just fiddle around with it until you get what you like].)

Hmmm, is there any real different between this and a reference sheet? If they are supposed to be in-episode frames cut out and put on the template, then we could make them as we go along making the episodes...and I don't really see the point in putting all of that information on the sides.0o Some of it is a bit useful, but...
