Thanks for the invitation Mike! Glad to be here! -E

Welcome (back?), Eric! I'm not certain, but it's possible that you were here in the January timeframe when we have a system database crash, and we had to rebuild things from a backup created on January 20th, as I recall, but I could have that off by a month in which case it was a December 20th backup which was used to recover things. I remember that I lost 250+ posts myself, so it wouldn't be surprising if you were around during that timeframe if you just disappeared completely.
In either case, welcome, welcome to our corner of the playing card world. We've recently done some fun things, see my signature for some leads, as well as the graphics bar in the "New & Custom Decks" sub-forum of the "Playing Cards" forum. Enjoy your stay, Eric - and come often, we're always here ready to help and we have a proven track-record of successfully funding decks that take our collective advice, likely going out on a limb here and stating about 95-100% correct - and also if you ignore the advice given here, which is almost always constructive unless you truly show us crap (and that's not happening with you!) that we're right when we call it pooh. I'm assuming that my Indigo and Zinfandel decks are somewhere between yourself and my mailbox? I do recall that we did a little sell of a couple (few? - don't remember specifics) Brown Wynn (Bee) decks as well, and everything was 100% as it should have been on your shipping, which as I recall was from a period when you were in your Filipino location, I think? In any case, so glad to have you and welcome to the club! Feel free to ask questions of the membership, create your own thread in the "Official Company Threads" subsection for your products past, present and future, etc. "Something Wicked This Way Comes part 3" in the "New & Custom Decks" details my new "CardLauncher" KS clone currently being built from my specifications, which are basically to correct every single flaw that I found in the KS paradigms for doing business and tossed a few corrective actions in on top of things, including escrow of funds for production and fulfillment (someone like you - unlike 90% of people - would be able to fulfill your own projects - if you are a masochist) and beyond that just read up on the latest directions we have taken (see my signature for a starting point or type "CardLauncher.com" into your browser's address bar and you'll be warped back here to that "SWTWCpart3" thread for details. UC is totally free and independent of anything CL, although obviously there is some synergy between the management teams.
