I registered only to share my two Tendrils of Agony from Scourge.
Hope to help other people with them.

This is still probably the best guide to differentiate Traditional from Simplified Chinese (I wish MCM sellers checked this instead of sending whatever they feel like).

It would be great if pictures of sealed product were added too. As far as I know, the difference is that Traditional Chinese has 5 letters under Magic: The Gathering, while Simplified has 3.

We are slowly working on adding all the sealed product pictures but there are so many of them it is hard to have them all in one place, however if you check out the links on this page http://forum.magiclibrarities.net/forum ... f=6&t=9207 there are many scans available.

I usually refer people to this thread as lots of people can't tell apart Traditional from Simplified. I'm posting to see if the original poster could please upload the images again.

I'm glad that people still find it useful.
Fixing the images is definitely on my "to do" list.
In the meantime, the text portion still functions perfectly. I'm glad that I included both.

Happy to announce that all the broken image links have been fixed.
It's also been updated with additional pictures from a few sets, and most noticeably, basic lands, which were always difficult due to their lack of rules text.
