Design & Development / Re: ORNATE Playing Cards Preview
« on: January 30, 2012, 08:25:11 AM »
Please stay with the colored borders. I am really tired of card creators having to print white boarders just because us magicians complain about having to hide double lifts and reversed cards. It would cost you more in looks  than it would give you in the "magic" area of the deck to abandon the silver or gold look that defines this deck.

And besides that, as long as a deck has borders that are the same color on both sides magicians can hide moves all they want so to the other magicians out there "STOP COMPLAINING"






I will also note that I am well late with this comment and thank you for preemptively acting upon it

Wow - really late!  He kept his colored borders, by making both sides with identical gold-and-silver colored borders.  I think it was a rather ingenious idea, really.

He was aiming for the broadest possible audience, I think - pleasing magicians AND flourishers AND collectors.  I believe this deck will do so admirably on all counts.

I agree, I was reading about page three and the boarder thing really bothers me so I just hit quick reply... Then I saw page four

I like the very subtle one way back design.
I just figured it out too! Its pretty easy to find if you are examining the cards but no one would see it if they weren't looking for it.
That is a really good one! It allows for quick identification unlike most of the ones from the major companies

P.S. When and where is this deck coming out, it looks fantastic?!

Thank you mr. Sabacc, That was most helpful!

Very true on that last point, I was hoping that maybe some one who didn't really use theirs would be willing to sell me theirs so I wouldn't have to wait for E

I am looking for a used ghost gaff deck, it always buggs me that if I don't buy new ghosts each time I get the gaff that the gaff cards stick out because they are cleaner.Name your price


Thanks,


Jeff

Ah, good idea, I used them for a great routine with pure smoke and a joker from a deck of shadow masters to tell the grim tale of four monarchs and the plague of time... (That's the pretty melodramatic description, but you get the idea)   

11
     Long story short, I spilled a soda into the draw where I keep my cards  :'(  none of the decks themselves were hurt  :D  due to some heroics on my part, but the one deck that got partially damaged was my ghost gaff from ellusionist. of the cards that got ruined I really want to replace my dead kings.


      I don't care what color they are (Black or white) and I would be willing to accept any reasonable price or any creative offers for the four cards or someone's used ghost gaff ether way, up to you, any offer will be considered. (I would love to do some sort of patchwork deal here just for fun) so again anything goes!

From seeing this I would almost Vortex will go for $200 at some point. (I do love LTD though, I hope they reprint it at some point)

I love the 4 of clubs!

14
Depending on what you want for it I might be willing to buy or trade the Brimstone off you

15
Thank you sir!

I am kind of looking for collectible reasons, but at the same time I really want to go through the entire book front to back so I think Ill try to pick up both... Revelation might be cool... that or the bible edition.

Imagine a fantastique deck in one of those, it would be exactly what the deck is suppose to represent.

Ya, it also puts it more offset from Infinity, Monarch, Whatever Karnival comes up with and LTD... It does put it closer to seasons though

Im not sure if they are still doing it, but ellusionist use to have a system where you could video session with top magicians to work on magic... I think they just called it in session or something like that

23
I am looking for as old an edition as anyone can find (obviously finding a first edition would be amazing) but anyway, if anyone has an old copy, message me and we can talk price/shipping etc...


Thanks,


Jeff
