I also dont like their cardstock. Printerstudio is much better.

Oh but it does matter. If the cards were to have - say - a purple tartan border (yes I am being silly to make a point !) that would dramatically affect what I put together to fit in there
I'm OK with gamecrafter stock, by the way. Ly's decks are really nice.

The 79th Card ...
The 79th Card?
BTW -
if this becomes the paper deck it seems to be leaning towards - let's not forget there has to be a design for the backs of the cards!
And also, since annabel seems more than capable in this department - a design for the eventual box!
...already thinking about his Devil card design ....

I am not the greatest artist but wanted to ask about taking a card. Do we get an approx outline of the card size and then can do whatever we want for our chosen card? just wanted to check before agreeing to one!

Dan - check back in post #47 - I think your answer may be 'yes'.

I had to read all posts...
People, you are great!!! Thanks so much for the support!
Flames, thousand thanks to you too!! And Annabel - I really have no words but tears...big hug to you, I'll take your position to the first side.
I noticed, that almost all posters are in agreement re most of the details and so I am.
My suggestions:
- tarot size
- unnumbered majors, titles to be added by Annabel
- fully illustrated minors, titles to be added by Annabel
- uniform borders

- Printed deck?
Yes please.
- Unnumbered Majors
Unnumbered works, it solves the Justice/Strength question. (A choice will still have to be made for the ordering in the LWB, though.)
- Numbered Minors post-production or not?
Post-production for consistency.
- Creator to add title themselves or not?
Either way works for me.
- Traditional names/titles
If added post-production, traditional is good (but which tradition?). If added by the artist, then I think they should be able to use an alternate name if they want (for instance Seer instead of Hierophant). It's going to be an idiosyncratic deck anyway.
- Bordered cards (with a consistent border width) or borderless? (see #47)
I'm leaning toward bordered but I can go either way.
- potential size to work with: 2 - 3/4" x 4 - 3/4" (check tarobear's posts #39, etc.)
That works. I'm flexible though.
- annabel398 is willing to contribute in a huge technical way
Thank you!
- Formatting options: PNGs, PSDs, JPGs...
Prefer a lossless format for obvious reasons, if it will be a print deck.
Yes please.

I'd be willing to be one of the 6 as well if you need.

Yippieh, thank you, starlightexp! 
You are experienced and a deck creator, if I'm right.
Tarotbear, I want to thank you for your high qualified comments at this point!!
