Elettra

Unread post by Elettra »

Hello everybody :)

I'm Elettra. I have never signed up to a forum or used one before, so I'm warning you that I'm kinda noob (and I hope I won't mess up this thing).

I live in Italy and I'm a playing cards enthusiast. I love the historical details and the repurposing curiosities, but also keeping up with modern design projects and observing the designer's approach to this (very) special kind of product.

It is to say that I'm a graphic designer and illustrator dealing with playing card design too. I'm also trying to learn some cardistry tricks on Youtube, occasionally, but I'm quite terrible.

Anyway I'm very interested in conversations about playing cards and I love your being active and exchanging views about this topic. :)

Welcome, Elettra!

I took the liberty of putting your post in its own thread, it'll get more visibility that way :)

If you're unsure of anything related to using the forum, just ask here or send me a PM!

Hello Elettra,

welcome to the board! Are you the designer of the Florentia Playing Cards by PassioneTeam? Or is it just a coincidence that her name is also Elettra?

Welcome at UC Elettra.

@CPPCC I would bet money on it. Would be a huge coincedence.
You want to reclaim your mind and get it out of the hands of the cultural engineers who want to turn you into a half-baked moron consuming all this trash that’s being manufactured out of the bones of a dying world.

Can I answer to each single comment or is it an annoying practice? :oops:

You can, but it's possible to do so inside the same post :) While at the "Post reply" screen, you can scroll down to see replies to the thread (sorted by most recent), and from there you can click the quote button to make them appear in the text box above. You can even mark parts of a post before clicking the button, and it'll quote only that part :D
