    Pretty epic deal, thought i would share

    Essentially you have to sign up for a new account, insert a code on the discounts page in your account, get 5 people to click on a unique link it gives you and after that just sort the picture out on the cards and enter the code again at the checkout to get them for 99 cents, this includes international shipping.

    I got the pack where all the cards have the same picture, not sure whether it works for the one where you can have a different picture on each card.

    I got mine with this on but you can probably come up with something more original:

    No one seems interested but they got here this morning. Very nice quality, feel thick and sturdy, should be good to play with. Excellent buy for 63p :D

    That looks nice indeed!

    Perhaps get some LZ stacks and keep them until we finally get that LAN party organised where we can sell them! :D

    nice, but wouldn't it be nicer if the pictures were vertical placed instead of horizontal? ;D

    Nope, then you'd loose that shadow-ish building on the left side.

    but during playing with em, you would have to tilt your head to see them and then they go like: OMG UR CHEATING! And you're like: No, I'm not i'm just checking out his cards! And they go like: YEAH RIGHT, KILL HIM! and then they stab you to death with a crowbar.

    True, this would be an issue.
    On the other hand, looking at your cards while playing isn't the best thing to do. Since, no matter which way the picture is, you would always have to turn them by 180°, meaning your opponents COULD SEE YOUR CARDS.

    Jer is talking about looking at the picture from the guy in front of you. There is an easy fix. Turn the deck sideways. You can admire the back of the cards properly on the cards not yet drawn, or put your cards on the table in front of you if you don't need them for a second. I think I doesn't really matter either way. Perhaps you can even choose?

    Turning the deck leads to only ~1/4 the people being able to see it the correct way 'round though. :D
    And yes, you might be right that it doesn't really matter. Maybe this whole discussion isn't really serious, come to think of it?

    Depends on with how many players you're playing...

    Even when playing with two people only you won't sit next to each other, but you'll face each other.

    Yeah, so if you put it sideways, it's relatively easy and good to see for both.

    I did consider cropping the picture and having them vertical but i thought it would look slightly better if it is off to one side like that. More understated you could say. :p

    If i got some more i would probably get this:
