Not that I can tell. I still get the error message tonight.

One thing I noticed, there is a 53rd card back in the 2004 set. However, it's a card of nobody! And I have two Anton Palapoi cards there, where I didnt when we were all having trouble finding it.

I'm sure everything will be straightened out in the next week or so.........

Thanks Az! It's not really a "position", but I offered to be the guy to help when help is needed, thats all.

Card will not show up in locker

I downloaded my sons card along with the other 5 drafted players but it won't show up inside the locker? Have any idea why?

Sure thing Mr. Myers!

Going thru the locker still takes you to the same page where all the cards are located. Just click Trading Cards in the locker.

On the options at left, you will see "Choose a collection" near the top.

Click the little arrow next to 2004 Denver Broncos, and you should see 2005 Draft Class as the other choice. Select that, and Chris's card should come up along with Clarett and Williams.

Also, just so you know, you can print these out. To make a nice looking "Real" card, get some thick stock paper. Select the card you want to print, and print out a copy. Let it dry a few minutes! This takes a lot of ink. Flip it over, and print it again. If you have it lined up right, this will give you two copies of the card, front and back. You might wanna practice with it a little bit using plain paper, until you get it lined up right, but when done, they look really sharp!!

And the price is the best deal anywhere! Unless you print out hundreds of them, which just might happen here.


Hope that works for you. It's there.

Newbie "duh" time: Like, where do I go to get my virtual trading cards?

Newbie "duh" time: Like, where do I go to get my virtual trading cards?

First off, you wont be able to get any until the next set comes out in a few more weeks. They are only offered for a limited time. A few of us are hoping maybe Admin will make the 6 card 05 draft set available again as several people didnt get them.

But when you can.......

You want to start at the main team page. On the left, is a list of options. One of them is Fan Fare. This is the same route you took to get to these boards. Click that.

On the next page, where you see an example of these boards, is another list on the left. There you will see Trading Cards. Click that!

That will take you to a page explaing a bit about the cards. Theres a blue line about the cards right in the middle of all that. It says "Trading Card Homepage". Click that.

That will probably take you to the sign in page. Use the same name and password you use here. Hit enter.

Now you will be at yet another page. Your almost there! It explains even more about the cards, and gives options at the top such as trading. On the bottom of that page you will see another blue line that says, "Click here to view your portfolio". Click that.

That will take you to where you want to be! You should be at a new page thats sorta blueish/grey. There will be room for three cards on the right, and options on the left. The bottom one is the one you use to select the card of the day to download. When a card is available, you will also see a big orange button right over that card. You can click that to get that card also.

This is the long way. But it's good to go that way at leat once, so you can read all the info you need to know.

The other way is thru the Broncos Locker. You'll see a reference, with a link, along the way there. Thats also a pretty cool feature. Check it out! You'll like it!

Lastly, once you've made it to that final page, if you can, save that page as a favorite place. That way you can just go right to it to see if theres a new card, skipping all the steps. It only asks you to sign in and your ready to go.

Hope that help you 1MILEHIGHER!

Another good newbie question... How often will cards be posted and how long will they be available? We're very excited to collect these as we've just started collecting "real" Broncos trading cards and it will be fun to get these too!

The cards are only posted at certian times. So far, we have had two sets. The first came out during the 04 season, and was 53 cards, each available for only a 24 hour period. A few were released twice, but only a few of them. It lasted until the end of the season, and that was it.

The second set just came out a few weeks ago. It was 6 rookies drafted this past spring. All six were available for 4 days, except the Clarett, which was only available for 3 days.

The next set is supposed to start sometime during week 1 of the regular season. My guess is that each card will be available again only for 1 day, starting at midnight, Denver time. Thats how it worked last year.

I'm pretty sure Admin will start a thread a few days before the next set comes out, giving us a little warning, and explaining how this set will work in more detail.

Hope that helped a little bit!

And Welcome to Broncomania!!!

Yay JWINN! Congratulations! You were made for this job.

I've been off for most of the spring and summer and see that I missed the rookie draft class set, but I'm anxiously looking forward to the 2005 set. Also I was delighted to see we still have access to the 2004 set.

If you don't remember me, don't worry about it. I'm just checking in to see what's going on.

Stupid question: You can trade cards. Does this mean you can download the same card more than once? If so.....how? If not, wouldn't trading keep you from getting a full set?

Rule #1- There are no stupid questions!

You CAN download the same card twice, or more! Everyone gets the same card everyday, so that makes trading kinda pointless until the program has gone on for a while.

Last year, they ran thru the whole 53 card set at least twice. Once it had run thru the first time, they ran it again. This gave most of us the chance to get two complete sets. However, there were those who for whatever reason were not able to get online on certian days, so they missed cards here & there.

Once the rest of us started to get doubles, we were able to trade with them to complete their sets. One thing that was common, was to trade for the same card on top of the card needed.

Example;

You need the Jason Elam card because you couldnt get in the day he was offered, but I did! Now, as the doubles start coming out, your still short the Elam. AND you only have one of everyone else. You offer me one of your cards, lets say the Rod Smith. I trade you BOTH the Smith AND the Elam. I keep my Smith, and you get both cards!


The short of it is that yes, you can get extra cards when the set runs the second time. Further, we can trade cards from the old sets for cards from the new!

I hope your not as lost as I am from all that, and that that helped.
