OR you could go using this "template"?
NAME -- COST
TYPE
[+]your turn ability (if any)
[.]neutral ability (if any)
[-]other turn ability (if any)
P/T (if any)
Just treat them as a planeswalker, with less text I guess.

These are awesome, I can really see something like this happening (with WOTC putting reminder text on most of them, of course). A few more, also in increasing order of silliness: Instant Support Land  : Add  to your mana pool.: Add one mana of any color to your mana pool.Awkward Twiddle  Instant Untap target creature. Draw a card. Weird Izzet Shapeshifter  Creature - Goblin MerfolkGoblins you control get +1/+0. Merfolk you control get +0/+1. 1/1 Sad Elf  Creature - Elf Haste, forestwalk, vigilance, trampleReach
1/1

If there is a neutral ability it would be best written in both boxes. Having a neutral box is really bad.

Haha I like the idea, as gimmicky as it may look like.
This inspired me, what if we try to get this mechanic to work for other senses? Making cards taste different obviously wouldn't work, but I hereby trademark the "smelly cards" mechanics, where cards change depending on how they smell. Someone could make cards that make sounds, too, I guess.

Okay, here is the clincher. I've been waiting to say this.
The "cam girl" this was inspired by was just a girl from a social networking website, Stickam. Her name was TinyTerror and she was just a regular girl who was on her webcam, totally unrelated to any type of adult content.
I hope you all feel really smart now. 
This is like someone coming into class with a bloody nose and everyone's like "Jeez what happened to you" and they're like "I ran into a wall" and everyone laughs at them for being an idiot but then at the end of the class they say "HAHA JUST KIDDING I PUNCHED MYSELF IN THE FACE!!!!!! TALK ABOUT OWNED HAHAHAHAHA"
I really enjoy imagining this from Kevin's perspective. Because in Kevin's world, Rosewater actually reads everything he types. Mark is sitting there right now, reading this, and thinking "The greatest trick the devil ever pulled. . ." Or some such. He chuckles low, then clicks on "The Best Of KEVINSET" and says "Yes, this'll do just fine. A busty lady with banding who deals direct damage to Zones!? Why this will be the star of my next set, and no one will ever believe you Kevin." Then he closes his Macbook, so his servant may move it out of the way, while another servant puts a Fetal Richard Garfield Clone lathered in Steak Sauce in front of him. Then Mark Feasts.
Sorin walked into the chamber where his newly wed bride, Vampy, awaited. A beam of moonlight illuminated his brilliant silver hair as he strode with confidence towards the bed. His shirtless body showcased his powerful abdominal muscles and he was wearing jeans with holes in the knees.
I wish more girls play magic cards...
Have you considered assassinating Kevin?

Although it does nothing that can't be done (and often it's almost equally elegant!) with average card wording, this idea might have more potential than what's explored here!

Use different fonts if you're worried about the colorblind issue.
Embrace imagination.

My Standard deck: Setting SunThink of how Neo couldn't beat the robots, but they kept him around anyways to defeat Agent Smith. Sure, the robots might not like having a Neo running rampant because instead of playing their favorite 4 drop fatty robot, they have to play a bunch of one mana Matrixs to contain him, but at least Neo keeps Agent Smith from reanimating an Iona on turn two.
Are you saying I'm trying to blame my loss on something? I don't care that I lost, I care that he's a sore loser, and a cheater, and a liar.
CKY, are you bad at anything?

I mean, In KevinWorld, Mark is reading the very words I'm typing as well. Heck, in KevinWorld maybe I am Mark.
I'm beginning to think CKY may be anime in real life...

[In response to a thread about how hard grading is]
Upon reading this, I've found myself completely unable to operate in the world. I tried to decide what to eat for breakfast, and pondered the vast consequences of my choice. How do I balance my dietary needs against my desire to eat good-tasting food? Should I factor in how long it takes to prepare? Cereal is ready in moments, but bacon takes longer to cook.
Then there is the impact on other industries. Do people in the cereal industry deserve to be employed more than people in the bacon industry? Which industry should I support? I don't even have the data regarding HOW MUCH the cereal industry benefits from me eating a bowl of cereal, or how much the bacon industry benefits from me eating a side of bacon. How can I compare two qualities I can't even quantify?
And let's not forget the milk on the cereal. In addition to determining whether or not milk is healthy for me, how much that benefits the milk industry, and how much the people in the milk industry deserve my support, we have to factor in the fact that cows are put under brutal conditions in order to collect thier milk. Of course, the same goes for the pigs, and then they get killed. Of course, I really like bacon. So I need to come up with a scale that compares the value of cow happiness to pig happiness to my happiness. What trade-offs am I willing to make here? Does the fact that the pig gets put out of its misery count as a plus or a minus? Isn't bacon bad for me anyway?
Deciding what to eat for breakfast (or any meal) is impossible. Help me!
I must admit chinkeeyong, you have the most interesting character ideas; and you play them well.
Anyway, you'd be surprised about Time Stop. When I first saw that card as a relatively new player I didn't see its full potential until I read the reminder text. Is it that unintuitive, though? Mine I mean. What is possibility? Is it possible for me to type these words with my tusks? No, because I don't have tusks. Although I am now tempted to go buy some - obviously not from poachers or whatever - and use them as typing apparatus. I could be the best secretary ever. "What's your words per minute sir?" "Well, only six, but I use these tusks to type them." "You're hired!" That was the interview. And is anyone else disappointed that "apparati" is not the plural form of apparatus? I just could strangle a dictionary, because "apparatuses" is a real word. I guess it sounds pretty cool. I'll call them my Apparatusks.

I've been spending time developing a D&D character, which suffers from some minor mental problems, because I can't help but designing psychopaths.
You should play Vampire: the Masquerade.
I don't have the luxury of joining whatever I feel like, most people around here play 3.5/pathfinder. And I need to work on my **** GM skills before I run anything again.
I spend a few minutes in photoshop. The colors don't look all that "pretty", but I rarely like MSE renders anyway. Grabbed the first art that somewhat resembled it.

I don't think I could do any fonts that wouldn't look out of place. I also looked at the whole splitting up the text box, but I feel like I lose a lot of potential with it.
