Make Your Own Custom Xbox 360 Gamercard, Without Xbox Live

Make Your Own Custom Xbox 360 Gamercard, Without Xbox Live

A Gamercard, is (as far as I know, since I don't have a real one) a little picture that displays things like your Xbox 360 Gamerscore, username, and recently played games. I don't have Xbox Live because I don't have high-speed internet, so when I tried to create a gamercard on [MyGamercard.net MyGamercard.net] (use that link if you have Xbox Live), I found out I couldn't because you have to put in a Gamertag profile that is linked to Xbox Live. So here is how to create your own, using a template I created from editing a real Gamercard.

Stuff you'll need:
+ Image editing software - anything from Paint to Photoshop will work.
+ This file - This is the Gamercard template I made. It doesn't include stuff like "Reputation" and "Zone", because those are only for Xbox Live. DON'T USE THE IMAGE ON THIS INSTRUCTABLE! It is for a preview only, because the quality sucks.
+ An avatar
+ Various images, I'll explain which ones you'll need in their respective steps.

The first thing you'll wanna do is add your Gamerscore and Gamertag. You can get both of these by checking your profile on your 360. The font I used is Tahoma, but I don't remember the size, so just play around with it. This is your gamertag, so customize it. Your Gamerscore goes across from the G icon, only a few pixels from the right side. Your Gamertag goes at the top.

I also put in a link to my Instructables profile, as I use this as my "home" on the intertubes. Go ahead and put in the URL for your website or something. There's also another field under the Gamerscore area, which can also be used for whatever you want.
