your back and aces are OK, but not very contiguous. the club design looks much more detailed then the rest. I am actually working on an angular deck design, and I know the clubs are the hardest to design. the courts need some work. it looks like you just traced the standard courts. to make it look n...

yup, the A. the words are a little plain, but I like them. have a look at the Misc. Goods Co. font. something with some big serifs would look great.

also I think you could get a better font. something slightly vintage, to match the rest of the design.

ooh. lurvly.

I like the newest version, but it is kind of even density, if you know what I mean. I think you should make the dots sparser, and make the pips in the dot fields white (or black in the inverted version). still not sure I prefer this layout to the old one, but I cant really think what you would put i...

amazing.

i like them. some thing different, tastefully done.

I am actually working on a new design to enter into the contest. can I enter more then one?

sorry for being so long, here it is. I replaced the upper right dots with ones I prefer. just preference really though.

me too. I might do something with that ace after all… just really scrapping the back design. thanks!

ok, on further inspection the thing in the middle IS semiotical oops. just doesn't look like it. my bad. I am working on a mock up of the dots.

with the suits being where they are, a subtle one way element is not really necessary, and as you said is almost useless in the middle. as for the dots, I think the dots on a rider back (for example) look much cleaner, but that could be partially ink bleeding. I think it is also how they sort of wra...

I agree, put something else in the corners and you have a killer design. one thing, I think your center radial thing with all the lines is not symmetrical. if you just rotate it a smidgen it would be. oh, and also I think that in the dot fields, you should make the dots a little smaller, or further ...

I have been working on this idea for a while, and was planning on posting it once I was a little further along, but I have scrapped the idea so I thought I might as well show y'all. here was the back design: ( yes, I know, the borders are too big.) http://i1110.photobucket.com/albums/h457/zevobh/Scr...
