For those who are typographically challenged, I've made a set of numbers that can be cut and pasted on the backgrounds. Ive also taken the liberty of revising the card backgrounds, which are also in the zip, I've made the suit symbol half the size, as it seemed to me while it was very nice it was going to take too much room from the girls (or guys). I've also made the card size twice as big, so when if you use these resize it by 50% when you put you card in the gallery- keep a copy of the big one though, if these ever get printed out we will need the extra pixels. Anyway, I tried to match the very nice style of the suits with the numbers, feel free to use what you want. I would guess some are more intrested in doing the renders and not the numbers, which is why I'm putting this up. WolfWithin - O.K.?

really cool idea, how come no-one mentioned it in chat last night?!? :P so, if duplicates don't matter anymore, can we nab anything we please now? i'm gonna check this out further tonite. :)

Finally, a few hours to play with this wonderful project. It is such a great idea, and I spent the day thinking about it, while working. When you do that, it's either agony or ecstasy, LOL! But I was enjoying my thoughts, and started the undies for Veth in her Queen of Hearts appearance. I needed some lace for straps on the undies and bra, so I tried a bit of Bebops to hold this together, and so far, I am pleased. Just fitting it properly, and making some lace of my own to join it with should put it together much better. Of course, with the right fellow about, it won't stay on her long! *laughs* What do you think so far Wolf? =P Some filling in with lace, stockings, and some other undies and frills should do I think. Oh, this is so much fun, and finally, a truly grand and enjoyable project to pursue. LOL, I'm in heaven! =P

Jim.....if you feel that you need to change the background, then proceed ;) Veth.......looks as though the Queen of Hearts will be a royal doll....wooHOOO!!!!! hehehehe.......AprilYSH....duplicates of the face cards aren't that big a thing.....duplicates of the Court cards are as welcome as anything else, but will be held back for a second deck........but they WILL be seen and they WILL be included in a downloadable deck......everyone involved in this is exceeding my expections.....and btw, a lot of people are calling this my project......this simply is not so.......this monster belongs to ALL OF US......from the Kings and Queens all the way down to the deuces.........this project belongs to everyone who's become a part of it by creating a card, taking time to comment, or just peeking in and viewing our work.......cripes, i'm making a speech.......LOL....but i mean in......genuinely mean it......and thanks again to everyone for breathing life into the idea..........

Getting in line here.. I will take one of the less popular ones if any are available.. I love a challenge. :) jodie@hunterlink.net.au

Two of Hearts (a newbie's attempt) alright guys, here is my Two of Hearts, I know it's nothing compared to everyone else's...but hey, being a 'newbie' and all, I think it turned out pretty good

Okeee, I'll do szeven of hearts and szeven of diamonds. ;-O

I want the eight of spades, for no particular reason.

(0) When and where are these cards likely to be published physically on cardboard, and what price for? (1) Crumbs, this is a long thread. I haven't seen as many messages in a thread since the "firestorm" about the PPP software lock plan. (2) How many pixels wide and high should the card be? What radius in pixels for the rounded corners? (3) There should be a specification on font and type size for the corner indexes, or it will be too confusing for someone using the cards for a card game.

(0)they'll be available for download in FreeStuff....... (1)it is, isn't it??? i had no idea this would happen..... (2)somewhere along the middle is a link to a zip file.... (3)i personally like the variety of fonts....it furthers the individuality of each card and artist....... dawulf.....that's a far sight better than the stuff i churned out when i first started ;)

I'll try to come up with the 6 of diamonds..we'll see how it goes...:)

they'll be available for download in FreeStuff But then how to get them printed onto proper playing card blanks?

Gee, I find this a great project, and a lot of fun! I love the format and how all the cards look so far- they are the perfect size and presentation for mini pinups,I think. Anyway, let me make a couple of suggestions: Everybody stay with TheWolfwithins original size of 442 x 620 pixels high for the one they put in the gallery. If you still are working on a card, do it double size (884 wide x 1240 high) and keep a full size version. It could be we could get somebody intrested in printing these when we finished (especially if maybe we all donated the profits to Renderosity), and we are going to need rouph 300 dpi for the printing (how big is a playing card anyway, about 4" high?) Anyway, I see I already duplicated some of the numbers, oh well! I've got two more to do, maybe I'll even di more if things die down and some numbers aren't taken. I wonder if we got enough of these we could have a Gallery for them?

Jim....the question of a gallery has been brought up previously via instant message....i've wondered about that myself......perhaps if a pin-up gallery begins, then that'll be the place for them..... Anthony....that's a good question also....i'd planned on buying some coated card stock, using Paint Shop to set the cards up, then print them out......insofar as making actual playing cards.....that i don't really know about.....i don't know of any place on or offline that does that sort of thing, but as Jim has stated....it's a possibility.......you never really know what sort of people are eyeballing these galleries.......someone who works for Bicycle or Hoyle might well stumble onto R'osity and just wig out over these.......hmmmmmm.........Hoyle.....maybe we could scrape up a programmer from our ranks to write a poker/blackjack game using our cards......now THAT's something we can definitely shoot for......and it's also another 30 minutes worth of typing, so i'll leave it at that ;)

i just posted 6 of clubs but if that's taken i can just swap the number for another... http://www.renderosity.com/photos/GalleryImage53780.jpg

Herewith, as I suggested above. Ref. the well-known short poem and the book "Alice in Wonderland".

Somebody assign me one! I want to do one! Which one isn't taken? :) Tara

I might like to try a king or a seven of something. Diamonds maybe? Where are the blank cards?

Awww, darn. I found the link to the blank ones, duh! Okay, I'll make up one or two and if they're not taken, I'll post. :)

Here is my contribution. I decided on the King of Clubs. Posted in the gallery. Hope he hasn't been done already :)

Can someone please post or email me an updated list of what cards have already been done? After looking over the fantastic work so far, I've decided that my first major foray into the art galleries will be a contribution to what looks to be a really fun project. Thanks in advance...I look forward to getting in on this! ChromeTiger

Well I made mine and it can be found in my gallery:)...question though, is anyone or has anyone done the Jack of Spades or Clubs yet? I had an idea for it but didnt' want to do it if those were already taken:)...anyway, let me know, if not I may try later tonight and see..:)

hugs to all lynde

I am doing the Jack of Clubs S

I just went through all the messages, here is the list of all the cards people have asked for: All 4 Aces, Kings, Queens, Jacks, 7s, 5s, and 3s. 8 of spades, 6 and 4 of Diamonds, 2 of Hearts, Black and Red Jokers. In addition, there are already a bunch of duplicates in the Gallery, Wolfwithin has said that doesn't matter, after all, but my metholodical mind says you aught to reserve your card(s) with a message, before you start on the card. There are also a bunch that don't exist in any cards I've seen, like the 1 and 11! Let me make another suggestion though - put the words "card project" in your upload so a search will turn up this marvelous work! And if you already have one up without that you can edit it to include it. Incidently, also above there are a set of full size backgrounds, and my double-size alternate set (which should be half-sized for your Gallery upload), which also has numbers you can use, if you wish. This is a lot of fun, though!

Thanks for listing them all out;)...I was having trouble determining what was left and must have missed the message about those 2 cards...anyway, if it's okay with everybody else I guess I could just make the card a 6 of spades although if that is taken by the time I'm done it could be used for any other number...:)
