I dunno if you were talking about flaming anime blue flames, or ElGreCo's avatar, but if you were talking about the color, it's just that; a color. I hate anime in all shape and forms, but that's the only way I know to describe that color. It's sort of a mix between sky blue and neon blue.

I also suggest that the box has that "07 D14M0ND3" as a barcode, cause that makes for a great way to reveal a forced 7 of diamonds.

Cards, these are gonna rule!


Man, Blue Pips will rule. I can say maybe Black cards, like a black deck of course. I think you should go with a Design that really stands out, for example the Black Tigers. Even though there not the best feeling cards you gotta admit the design is awesome becouse it stands out alot! Exo would look pretty good on the Joker and on the Box... maybe on the Ace o Spades. I've never seen a deck of cards with a Fire-y design on the back. I think it can happen. A theme to the Deck is probably the Key to your design. Blue and Red Pips, hhhm maybe you should think of some other Colors like Blue and Yellow. Since yellow does look nice on Black (that is fi your goin with black deck). I dunno, thats mainly my opinion.

Hmm.... I don't know... but I really can't imagine blue pips yet..... haha, not until I've seen them... cause it sounds tooo odd for me. But who knows, they may be good.

Anyway, I've got a few friend artists in my class, not professionals though, just casual ones... but they've been designing practically everything my class uses, from T-shirts to banners. I'll try ask them whether they could come up with some designs for the back and the Jokers.

Basically, for the deck, I think a lot of people like it simple.... like the vipers and tigers.... their simple yet hard hitting.... (other than the Ace of Spades of course)... can't think of anything right now though...

Will get back to you guys in a couple of days bout the designs though...... kinda busy right now with some stuff.

I took time to illustrate what the pips would look like if dark blue and anime blue, and even if it had a fire gradient thing to it:

Ok, so I did the same. I took Photoshop and tossed on some colors that I though would look cool. Lets get some more feedback going. *Wink*

I think that the one with the orange pips is the best, but i suggest putting a different orange. I also think that this should be great for the joker

Definitely think that Exo's blue is the coolest.

As for jokers, those designs are cool, but we don't have permission to use them.

We could probably ask them for their permission.
I don't think that blue is a very nice colour for playing cards and it isn't nice with black

imo the green pips are by far the best
i think that a darker blue or darker green would be better
it would make them look more sinister and underground if you know what i mean

If you have any ideas, please don't be afraid to submit them.

FM has created a Dark-Blue pip card. And I honestly have to say, it doesn't look that good. Hard to read, and looks odd.

------------- New Idea from Exo -
What if we had the pips all the original colors (Red/Whiet) and had them sort of flaming. Not a really big elaborate, but make it look like they are almost melting away into a flame.

What about that?
