Submission Guidelines

Please follow these guidelines when submitting a move to Cardistry·Base.

1Move title

If a move has two commonly used names, use the following naming convention:

Name 1 | Name 2

For example: Trigger | Bolis

2Tutorial / performance URL

Please only submit tutorials or performances that are publicly available and properly licensed for use. Tutorials that are private, unlicensed, or behind a paywall should not be uploaded.

If the move appears in the middle of a video, please use a timestamped URL that starts at the point where the move begins. For example:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gJhH7jic0UQ&t=20s

Here, &t=[seconds]s indicates the number of seconds into the video where the move starts.

Instagram

Sometimes the Instagram embed player may not work due to Instagram's policies. This is not a bug with Cardistry Base. In these cases, the move will need to be viewed directly on Instagram rather than through Cardistry Base.

3Move thumbnail

YouTube

  • If the tutorial or performance URL is from YouTube, a thumbnail will be automatically fetched.
  • If one URL is from YouTube and the other from Instagram, the thumbnail is always taken from the YouTube URL — Instagram has no public thumbnail endpoint.
  • If both the tutorial and the performance URL are from YouTube, the performance thumbnail will take precedence over the tutorial thumbnail.

Instagram

If no URL is from YouTube — for example when the only link you have is an Instagram one — you will need to manually upload a thumbnail for the move.

Multiple moves in one video

If you are using a single tutorial or performance URL for multiple moves, please try to upload an individual thumbnail for each move so that each move can be easily identified.
