I have just completed the base image for the awards card, here it is:
Name:  1974_award.png

I have also completed 3 more options for the All Star cards (the first four options are still on the table):
Five
This is the Variant I am most leaning towards.

Six
The same as one but flipped and using the AL color.

Seven
This one has the unique advantage of possible being able to change between two similar templates based on the league name since all the text is centered on both. Like option three in my previous comment this base would use two facegens of the same player (It would essentially be the exact same picture twice as facegens do not vary much in zoom or angle).

The plan now is to do all the xml for the awards cards so I can continue playing my fantasy simulation. After that is done I can work on the base card while playing out the offseason.

Finally on the topic of Mac support: I still haven't been able to find any specifics on how to support the platform so here is what I recommend.
  1. Follow the installation instructions included in the download
  2. Navigate to the bb_cards/templates folder in the data folder of your install
  3. In another window open the mod download again and navigate to the bb_cards/templates folder within the zip archive
  4. In the zip archive's bb_cards/templates folder is a folder named ootp21. Rename the folder ootp21_mac and copy it into the data/bb_cards/templates folder you have open in the other window.
  5. When prompted combine folders and replace files
  6. Try creating the cards in game and let me know about any errors or discrepancies so I can try to fix them

Looking forward your feedback!
