Yeah, me too!

I'm reading a bit into that super long thread. So far I haven't gotten much new info, but I've got a few really bitchin' proxies.

Seems like most people use the transparency route. Typically they're placed over a newer foil card that has had the foil removed. I guess that would reduce the thickness a bit if you could find a thin enough transparency.

Apparently for making foils, older ones are better (with trans). Older ones are foil with ink on them. Newer ones are actually a thin trans with foil powder stuff on the back. Well, so far as I've read.
