SOme rough ideas for pips, would this improve the deck. Of course all the fish could be used for the twelve court cards so there's no loss of any detail.

For ease of use, I'd suggest using lighter colors for red suits and darker colors for black suits, in addition to your colored index backgrounds.  Even with a proper index, some can find it confusing if the suits are either monochrome or reversed in terms of dark suits (black) and light suits (red).  For example, playing solitaire with a pack of Artifice Tundra or Bicycle Ghost requires a little more thought than I'd normally apply to the task - they have all-black pips in the center, while the index pips are either all-black for black suits or red with a black border for red suits.  The numbers/letters being all black on all the indices didn't help me at all.

Hey Don thanks - so do you mean use a lighter colour for he entire card face so they are immediately distinguishable or just lighter pips?.... Best wishes.

Thanks, I'm very happy with the design. I wanted to celebrate the rich history of the Ace of Spades - The Ace of Spades is the Fish that was hooked....

The design and theme has grown on me over these past few days... and it's probably grown on many more, because it appears that funding has almost doubled in the last 24 hours -- something like £2000!

Great going! :D

Good job. Hard work & perseverance pays off (sometimes!)

Hoping you reel in the remaining funding...

Less than £800 to go and 3 days remaining. For the love of cod, this is not the time or the plaice to get tight fishted. Even if your not going to use them, buy them for the halibut, because they will leaving you breaming from ear-to-ear. Mullet over

Cheers!  Glad to see you made it.  The deck wasn't to my taste, but my tastes aren't the sole arbiter of what's good.  Your deck is good!
