Hey-oh!

My name is Tyler, i'm not a magician by any means, but do enjoy the odd card trick to impress family and friends here and there. I'm from the great country of Canada, love it, except for the expensive shipping costs to acquire new decks!

I am quite new to collecting, but have recently started up again and like to collect anything that catches my eye. I have been playing cards almost my entire life, (grandparents got me into it) and have loved playing ever since. Once I found the world of Card Collecting I was hooked. Found the forums just browsing the deck trying to find out information on the new decks that have came out recently with the kickstarter boom.

I am currently in the process of trying to design my own deck to get it kickstarted. I have a bunch of ideas but tons of questions. One that maybe someone would care to answer regards the copyrights of old decks. One thing I enjoy doing is using Illustrator to bring old card designs back to life. I was just wondering if there would be any problems in finding an old vintage deck, re-arting it with different colors, etc...? Is that legal to produce on kickstarter?

Thanks for any and all future help I am sure to receive, and I look forward to posting more in the forums!
