Introduce Yourself / Hi Discourse
« on: September 06, 2013, 01:59:40 PM »
Hi Discourse,

My name is Brendan. I'm a card collector from Canada. I mostly collect cards for their designs and just started recently. If anyone could recommend any books on playing card history, I'd be much obliged. Or any recommendation of beautiful cards to add my collection, that would be amazing. And here's a picture of my small collection:

Design & Development / Re: Kings Wild - Signature Series

I'm loving that red and hope it can get printed like that. Will there be a blue version too like traditional rider backs?

Have you thought of "hiding" or making the logo blend into the intricate line work? Or maybe using the seal version of your logo (ie. the one on the front page of the Kings Wild site"?

And thanks for the design lesson. It's pretty cool to see all the thought that goes into and it's not just "well, let's put it there 'cause it kind of looks good". Best of luck and I can't wait to see the finished version, especially the courts.

Playing Card Plethora / Re: Nautical Deck from The Blue Crown

They've got a beautiful back design. Honestly, I'm looking the red and blue a lot more than the special limited white. I'm wishing companies would do a little bit more with the court cards since they go through all this trouble with custom ace of space, jokers, back and then the courts are a big let down.

Playing Card Plethora / Re: Playing Cards on Kickstarter

I think it varies by what's the point of the deck. Is it meant for usage or is it just meant to be pretty. But I think using Kickstarter is a great idea for creators to be able to keep their visions of the deck instead of working with a company that can buy for the printing cost but can totally change the whole idea of the deck.

Thanks Don. That is amazingly information and a cool thing to know. I guess I can understand why companies sometimes don't want to let these info about their decks.
