Now, to pick on you just a little bit...

I think that the designs that you have come up with are amazing and original.. You'd think that someone with this huge amount of originality and the ability to think of such things would have thought to just move the back of the card to below the top of the card to fit it in! LOL
I... uh... figured if you couldn't expand sideways, you couldn't expand vertically either. Yeah, that's it.

I haven't done this yet, but I do believe it will work. Anyone else want to give that a shot? :-)
I've tried a transparent background (as well as all black, which has the same effect) and found that it messes up the FaceGen pic somewhat. I really don't understand why it would do this, but I ended up with weird gaps in the head and cap. If anyone else has a different experience, I'd love to hear about it.
