batch creation of baseball cards?

Apologies if I've missed it, but I couldn't find a thread on this, or instructions in the manual.

Is it possible to do multiple baseball cards at once? It's a bit time consuming to do them one at a time.

They are automatically created for All-Stars and Hall of Famers...

Thanks for the quick reply. I understand that some are created automatically. I'm talking about creating individual ones for players, using the "Picture" pull-down menu. It would be nice to say "please create new, basic cards for all players on the 40-man roster," for instance, instead of creating 40 individual cards.

Well.. this card thing was something that they didn't think would be that big of a deal.. So, they didn't go too in depth with it at all..

I personally would like player position and more stats to be able to be as well as batch creation of all the cards.. even if it is only at the beginning or end of each season.

Good point dvwms. One feature that I would like to see is the ability to add custom baseball card designs. Use a drop down menu to select the design. I know we can modify the existing card by changing the XML code and graphics but we have to modify the default card. The only other option is to create a DOS batch file or write a program in Visual Basic or C++ to do the switching.
