OK I know I can google it but I am not up on editing packages etc and don't want the project to hoover up loads of time.

Are there any authentic templates I can easily edit with picture, category, score etc?

TIA

I thought this was going to be a thread about a top-trumps of DIY tasks. Perhaps rated by risk and wattage of power tool required.

Is disappoint.

Either of us could create such a thread, I suggest you do so in order to try to mitigate your disappointment.

The first thing that comes up on google is some on the TES website.

You'll have to sign up, it's nothing sinister. Just teaching resources.

I could email you the word document if you want.

I have heard a method of a thoroughly NSFW top trumps game

go to Soho, find all the phone boxes and collect a variety of cards that advertise a specific kind of service 🙂 then amongst friends, deal out the cards and use your imagination to create 'categories' for example highest advertised cup size, you know the kind of thing

🙂

Meh. They are all a bit crap.

What's an easy way to make one? My first instinct is MS Paint, so you can see how skilled I am.

Like how many [insert stereotype] does it take to change a lightbulb?

Got PowerPoint? Set the page size like a card, make a template then new slides = new cards with the fields to fill in.

Would work in libreoffice too, which is free.

PowerPoint - set the page size what you want. Build the template then duplicate the slide and add the content.

Slightly OT, I made a Monopoly template a while ago. Board, cards, everything. It's a *.pub file. Email in profile if you need it.

I want them to be a specific size. I'll try to work out if that is possible.

Big Hitters Top Trumps? You'd never complete a game, it would just descend into a never ending argument.
