Topic: [Feature Requests] Export Deck + Few more

I just found your site today and am loving it.  It is excellent.  Here's a few features I'd love to see:

1. Ability to Export Decks.
2. Ability to filter by card condition / batch update card condition (i.e. select 10 cards, change from Mint to Nearly Mint).  I.E. "Card Actions" would include something like "Set condition".
3. In a deck, ability to move multiple cards between deck and sideboard.  I.E. Select cards via check box, click "Card Actions", one of those actions is "Move to Sideboard" or "Move to deck".
4. In a "Listing" view, the ability to add a column that contains a small card image.  A small image even if too small to read might be helpful when scanning longer lists or as a quick reminder to pull the details back into your memory.
5. Ability to track which versions of cards you have.  I.E. There are multiple versions of "Swamp" within Return to Ravinica, it'd be nice to track that I have 5 with card number 260, 3 with card number 261, 7 with card number 262, etc (Artwork lines up to card number).
6. Ability to add Tokens to collection.

I'm using the deck to store the cards I open while doing sealed tournaments with my friends so I can later come back and evaluate how I built the deck and see if I could have done better.  The third request would make this process much easier.

Would you clarify why you would export a deck? Is it to pass a specific build on to someone else? If so, you have two options.

1) Get them to join Deckbox and then they can just copy a deck (you can copy any deck you view).

2) Use the print option (View > Print) to print a deck list.  That gives you a list you can share with your friends or take to events.  If you want to send it electronically, you can copy and paste the decklist into an email message or message board.

Profile - Wishlist - Tradelist

Black and Blue--not just for bruises anymore.

I'd like to be able to get the cards I need for the deck to copy and paste into a search box for the online store where I buy them.

Thanks for sharing with me the View > Print!  I did not notice that, and that solves most of my needs.

I really like this site, and can see myself putting a good amount of time into importing my collection, creating decks, etc.  With that type of an investment of time, I just like to be able to easily get my data out.  I've lost time before putting a ton of information into sites to only have something happen, and its nice to know I can protect myself from that.

I'm also just getting back into Magic, and imagine there might be other tools I use besides deckbox.  Deckbox has the great ability to export the collection, which is nice - I imagine I may find tools that could benefit from being able to import a deck (or decks).  But I imagine the format you pointed out from View -> Print will work well in those cases (or at least be easy enough to transform).
