Attractive, but not up my alley.  They look kind of bright - my eyes hurt a little from looking at them.  It's like staring into the sun...  :))

I like this deck. I enjoy my Starlight decks, I mess with them often actually. The card backs are colorful and make great fans, etc. It's fun. I didn't expect to see Black Hole show up at all. I'm surprised and pretty happy about it haha. This is going to be a blast too.

I like the faces real well and I am sure the backs do make for some great fans but I'm with Don, these cards would surely give you a headache after looking at them for any amount of time.  ???

Haha, you guys are absolutely right. This is definitely not a poker deck at all, and the last one wasn't even a solitaire deck. The card faces aren't as Kapow! as the images on your computer screen make them out to be, but they still have a pretty dramatic contrast in a strange way that makes long play with the faces kind of draining. I did try to play games with the first deck and yea, just didn't work out well at all. When I changed gears and used the deck to practice my fail moves, I'll never be any good but I have fun, that's when Starlight changed for me. It became a really fun deck to mess around with. It's one of the few decks I have that does that. Game fail, but fun to just mess with. This one looks like I'll be able to play a little solitaire as well though, so yay haha.

Seven now. I wonder why is he even still in here?

Anyway, the deck looks much much better than expected when i first saw the title, not to mention a deck from CPC. I say it looks much better than the first version. I highly doubt it will "glow/shine" on the actual deck itself, so i'm guessing the contrast is ok.

Um, which guy?  You say this out of the blue after a week of silence on the topic!

WHICH GUY?!?  Did a post get deleted in here?

Just checked - now I know!

Yeah, there's some odd thing I've noticed about some new accounts starting with a 6 rep.  Those accounts might be somehow feeding each other rep, or perhaps someone found a glitch in the forum software.  Eh.

Any news on the cards?  Besides how little I want to buy them?  :))

I think it's pretty big news when a CPC deck has the campaign funding to actually cover a print run lately. Spotlight on Starlight Black Hole. This may be the one! ;)
