What I think David lacks is someone standing over his shoulder to tell him, "I wouldn't do that".

That is where you are wrong.  I consulted him on the newer design and worked with him to produce a professional trailer and tell him how to lay it all out.  Then when I went on vacation he tore it all down and put up the old design.  I know from personal experience that his weakness is consistency and just being willing to see anything through until the end.

hmmm.

Thank you Alex, As robert said, he did consult me on the last deck of diamond cut. However just because he consulted me doesnt mean that it was correct. The campaign was already at a big failing point when i had changed the design. I did not go crazy how ever and change the whole thing. I just made a small adjustment to the box. That was not why i didnt fund. I had a week left and 3k. Wasnt gonna fund at that point no matter what. A lot of people on united cardists were bashing me because i worked with robert. I dont know why but they did. I still think robert is a good consultant. I just think that some things could of been different. Either way im not giving up on my deck. I put a lot of work into it and i want people to have the deck. MPC is not a bad company but hopfully next time i can get funded through the uspcc on my upcoming designs. Thank you Alex for the respectful criticism most people just talk trash and you didnt. Maybe you can help me on my next coming decks. cheers

Hello everyone,

New Diamond Cut coming soon. stay tuned

thank you very much. if you have an opinion please share it. im open minded

hey man you pretty much read our minds lol. I will make a couple more designs and run them by everyone. so far all my current backers like the original one but i am still open to change 

oh yes, I already did. i even lowered the shipping and sent everyone a post update.

Ok everyone i took a lot of consideration to everyones comments. I spent all night trying to figure out a way i can do it without being too plain. I had to get some help from an artist friend of mine who is much better with hand drawing detail. I took it and put it in PS and illustrator. It isnt even close to done yet but what do you think of my new direction for the court cards for the diamond deck?

  Your honesty is much appreciated sir, I am always able to update design changes from your feedback which I will do so.  My concept is based after diamonds/jewels/gold.  I focused on keeping it simple yet elegant , that way it's easy to read.   I also made a test print on my own computer to see how they look in pairs and what not.  From all the feedback I asked before launch pretty much all of it was very positive.  The design limits are endless and I always like stand out a bit

Hi guys i am the creator of the Diamond Deck. I guess i can say thank you for the feedback. I am not someone to get mad over constructive criticism so i appreciate it anyways. If you guys truly have suggested changes for my deck, i would be happy to hear them if you sent me a message on kickstarter as well. i did make adjustments on the shipping costs for the ones that i was allowed to still do. i was just basing my shipping prices from the usps website. i then did some other number crunching and i saw that i can lower it a bit, so i did. I basicly just got the idea from a an idea of my own. I am not opposed to making some changes though. let me know what you guys think i should do to make it better. thanks.

Dave

p.s any thoughts?
