Kardify just posted a nice little article about GrotesK which I like a lot (the article I mean :-))

Thank you Ivan!

Good article at Kardify and those images has me interested! I really like the King with the gothic cathedral integrated into it. In comparing the KoS I think I'm partial to the black backed deck which is a rare thing for me. I think the black background and lack of frame embellishments makes it stand out more. I'm tempted to get one of each now. Looking good!

Don't worry, we'll eventually get rid of those embellishments.

Lotrek - OK, with the KoS. Black is best. F..k the court border and a dagger in the indices is best... Indices look uniform.

Somehow managed to be Backer #2, any guesses on who was #1? :lol:

The animated feature kept me in for the limited, I actually prefer the standard, but I'm a sucker for gimmicks apparently.

I believe it's just the tuck cases that will be printed on black or gold stock, not the cards.

Edit. Damn, slow on the enter button again.

Agreed, coin for the boatman would be appropriate although we don't really need to cross that river yet, do we? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Although coin is always an option, in fact I'm working on something way more interesting and kinda "industry first" thing. Although you can never know with Travis's and Mary Jane's marriage invitation cards :ugthink:
