The people have spoken!!!!
MAJORS ONLY DECK FOR 2012
I have a new sigup list below, anyone who had a major before, still has that major. All minors are gone. New deadline, see below.
I'll leave it as one major per person until June 15, then it'll be open for multiple cards
2012 Collaborative deck. No theme.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Da Rools:
Card size and ratio. (Same as last year.)
See Below
The deadline is August 31th. We mean it. Any cards not with us – in their high resolution format - by then will be reassigned to fast workers – we know who they are.
WE MUST have a card of the right dimensions – see below - in jpg or tiff format, at a resolution of AT LEAST 300 dpi by that date. If you can’t do that yourself – find someone who can help you, and do it NOW. It really isn’t that hard.
There will be a LWB! May as well send your bios in now, and do prepare to write card descriptions too. No title or card number, that will be in the border that someone else does. see last years as an example

Card size and ratio. (Same as last year.)
This diagram is the actual card size and dimensions. The dashed area is the border which will be done by someone else, your design area is 2 1/2 by 3 3/4 inches. To make the final design look as good as possible, it is always recommended to work at a larger scale. Then when the final design is scaled down at the end, it minimizes any little imperfections. It just looks better. The second diagram is the the card sized up twice size, just to give you good working dimensions. You can work any scale you want, as long as the final ratio is 1:1.5. In other words, 1 inch in the horizontal equals 1 1/2 inch in the vertical.
All dimensions are in inchesAttached Image (viewed 630 times):

What do you think of this for border design? It's kinda rocky, but cool
Your design will replace the center section. remember this is a ver low res versiion of the final border
(the picture to the right is a blow up of the upper right corner)
Actually, I agree, too busy, too dominate in color. check back later for something different.
Probably quite similar ti last years.

I actually think that border is too busy for me. I more like simple borders that don't distract too much from the images. Sorry  .
Ok, about the deck, I would like to do the Tower this time and the 6 of pentacles. There may be one more card to follow.. but I need to think about it.

Devil, 6 Swords and Queen Pentacles, please.
And I think that border's a bit limiting on design, in a way...

I'd like to do Hermit, 4 of Swords, 9 of Pentacles, please.
ETA: I think that border is a bit too strong in itself, might clash with many designs.Last edited on Mon Mar 19th, 2012 09:55 am by Morwenna

Second attempt at a border. I put some of 2011 cards in it so you could see what they'd look like. I lightened the border background alittle, so the the 3 cards are a little darker.
What ' cha think?
Where is everyone? There haven't been any new takers on the cards. Have I pissed everyone off?

I pop in sometimes, but notifications are unreliable and I have something I must finish before I commit myself this year.
Not keen on the faux chrome banners - less is more, methinks.

skad1 has put me on the list for the emperor, Thanks very much!
Here comes the card. It was meant to go into a little deck I made recently but in the end didn't fit in (more details here: http://www.tarotcollectors.com/view_topic.php?id=2280&forum_id=6 )

I dunno, since we're only doing a 22 card deck, should we just leave it here?
a quick 'n dirty look at what the cards may look like. trzes, you may need to refer to card sizes in the second post, your card doesn't quite fit.

Sorry, I didn't realize the upload should also have the correct measures. This one should be ok. I might photoshop the image a bit though before I send the final version.

I am really wondering why we can't even find 22 people this year. The other years, people basically jumped in so fast, the list filled up in no time. And the first cards were also already on the forum very quick. Even for the challenge deck. But this year it just seems different. I wonder why?
For myself, I know this year my energy and attention has really been absorbed by all kinds of real life things. But I still do want to make at least one card. I got this great idea, but I don't know how to realize it yet. Yesterday evening though, I kinda made a backup card for the Tower already, low res. It is a more traditional one. If I am gonna use that, I will have to make it in high res of course. But I am still hoping I can manage to do my other idea before the end of august. I don't have access to all my own photographs right now to work on it seriously...

I think there was a lot of ill feeling last year. I got PMs. Which is why I will not organise anything to do with it again. But it is a shame we cannot even manage 22 people. I will DO a Strength - but not post in the hope that someone else does.

Then again, I guess the Tower makes up for that... lol!
