Animate decks are nothing new, and Grotesk Macabre is already having one, but based on that quote from Lotrek above it sure sounds like black stock on black core paper.

Granted I'd rather just see ICONS be finished and delivered than some supposed game changer.

Me too. And this day isn't far. ICONS turned out to be an incredibly painful project but it seems to be at last very close to completion without problems this time.

Thanks for being animate and quirky Bruno!

Lotrek, have you tested a prototype deck with the animation? I haven't really seen an animated deck that was actually cool. Hopefully Macabre changes that!

Yeah, Bruno definitely has style and is a literate person. Nothing can hold him! I love his posts too.

If you flip the deck at the right speed (not too fast) the animation will be cool. Guaranteed. 8-)

Finally black stock!!

Once again something that "couldn't" be done is done by Mr. Lotrek. Great work as always.

On a side note this is all great but I would like to see some ICONS first!

I purposefully kept quiet, but this is awesome stuff!

I am thinking Lotrek will tell us more soon, but I am certain that it is not Expert PCC stock.

Yeah, I won't be torn.

The cellophane wrapping around the tuck will be torn.

Black stock decks were meant to be played, and I'm just the playa to play 'em.

Oh, yeah.

I'll go with $30. Sounds about right for the first black stock deck, and I am thinking around 5-600 made.

I feel the same way. Almost... I have been working a lot of overtime lately. $30 is pushing it but I think it's reasonable considering the accomplishment. 'Bout time we merge threads?

Well either you pay a little more than $20 now or pay double/triple than that later on if you change your mind. ;)
