Starting to feel at home now, what with all the visitors! Thanks everyone for the numerous watches/comments/faves, so encouraging for my first couple of weeks!

Glad everyone's liking the Playing Cards, obviously my style is a bit schizo, seems to range from slightly dark to slightly ridiculous, but then who wants to commit to one thing...

One pattern emerges...white backgrounds... blame the graphic designer in me...gotta work on that!

Cheers again,

L


EDIT: Ok point taken, VIVA WHITE SPACE!

(To those of you who commented, my own opinions have been reinforced, thanks!)

Dublin City Council is to introduce a ban on eleven breeds of dog from properties including houses, flats and estates, with immediate effect.

The breeds are: English Bull Terrier, Staffordshire Bull Terrier, American Pit Bull Terrier, Rottweiler, German Shepherd (Alsatian), Doberman, Rhodesian Ridgeback, Japanese Akita, Bull Mastiff, Japanese Tosa and Bandog. Cross-breeds of these dogs or crosses of these dogs with any other breed are also banned.

Owners will be given the opportunity to rehouse the dogs but if alternative accommodation cannot be found for they will be destroyed.

"Citizens against Dog ban "

please take the time to sign the petition and read ANVIL's website for updates. This is discrimination against council tenants as well as any responsible owner of one of these breeds.

Man your cards are awsome I can't wait to see more of the deck!
~asher-s:iconasher-s: May 7, 2007, 7:40:11 PM
The playing card series is really great. I love the whole style and it does the stereotypes with a lot of character. You should finish it off so people could play with it (or start selling decks)
