Title: What would playing cards look like if...
Post by: Paul Carpenter on July 02, 2013, 09:36:41 AM: If designers got together and banned the following three things, what would playing cards look like?

I propose (only half in jest) no more use of:

- Two circles on the back, symmetrically laid out
- Victorian, flowery curlicues
- Skulls of any kind

:P

Post by: xela on July 02, 2013, 03:47:01 PM: Vortex: No skulls, no flowery designs, and only ONE awesome circle because I AM FUCKING INNOVATIVE LIKE THAT.

So basically all the decks would look like shit. :D

Haha, excellent. Oddly, if you refined that just a little and put it on Kickstarter it would be a bit nicer than more than a few projects on there. ;D

Okay, I know I'm new here and everything, but damn hell that was funny. That should the new welcome poster. Membership would skyrocket. Or plummet.
