So I've been trying to make a Blue Creature, and for some reason, I'm not able to save it with what I want on the card.  I was able to make another basic blue creature in a test, and I'm able to generate a preview when I try, so I'm not entirely sure what's up here.  Anyways, here are the specifics if anybody's wondering.

 

Name:     Lord's Blade Ciaran

 

Color:     Blue

 

Mana Cost:   3 blue, 3 colorless

 

Picture URL: http://images.mtgcar...6/901670123.png

 

Supertype and Type: Legendary Creature

 

Subtype: Knight

 

Expansion Symbol: Unlimited Rare

 

Abilities and Flavor: Poisonous, First Strike

                                {u}{u}{u}: Prevent all damage that would be dealt to Lord's Blade Ciaran this turn.

                               If Lord's Blade Ciaran damages a creature for two consecutive turns in a row, that creature takes an additional 4                                points of damage.

 

Power/Toughness: 2/4

 

Artist: my name, which has worked on all other cards

Set Name: Dark Souls

Ah my friend, so you have found this to. The error, you see, happens  when you add an apostrophe(') in the title, just a site bug. and while I'm here, I'm going to run through your card. 

 

First of all, always indicate the really artist of the picture- if that is you then I congratulate you on your art ability.

 

Second, you must have a real sub-type (IE: Human Knight, Mutant Knight, Veldaken Knight)

 

Third, there are no points of damage in magic. the ability should instead read "If Lord's Blade Ciaran would deal damage to a creature that Ciaran dealt damage to last turn, he instead deals that much damage plus 4." or something like that.

 

Here's about what I think you were trying to make (I claim no credit at all, all I did was reword what you put.) Click here for Image URL.

I don't think it's the apostrophe that's the problem. Two nights ago, I too tried to save a Blue creature. I saw this thread and thought it was just Blue creatures affected, so I tried making a Green creature or two. They didn't work either. Perhaps only White creatures can be saved? Or maybe the site's just having a bad day? A crazy thought: Maybe the site can only save one card to a set right now. My only suggestions, take them as you may: 1) Wait until the site feels better. 2) Write it down in the YCM or save the Photoshop image until then. 3) Perhaps change the set name? I haven't tried any of these yet, but I hope work.

Well I have saved creatures of all colors, the only thing I can find is the apostrophe, and it did succesfully save this one, try making this exact card and see if it saves, if it doesn't it may be a problem with your machine.Altogether, the problem could also be an issue with internet connection.

I can confirm, it is the apostrophe that is the problem, I've had it happen plenty of times before, you get a similar situation if you try to link a card with an apostrophe in its text.
