-===== Folder Structure ===== +
- +
-Though you can freely determine what directories different Image files come from in the plugin parameters, we would recommend creating a **cards** subfolder within your project's **img** folder to place the custom images. Within the **cards** folder, it can be helpful to create two folders **art** and **bases** to distinguish between two types of images that the plugin will use to construct the cards (see [[card-overview|Card Overview]]). +

-If all else fails, the CGC plugin will look in the **system** folder for fallback images. These can be set in the plugin parameters of **MYTH_CGC_CoreEngine**.+
