Cliche anyone? I dunno, maybe this Jack of Hearts has a new twist... ;)

Done using GIMP, I think I'm starting to get the hang of it. :D

Cool! Could be the first of an SM playing card deck. Hmmm...we know someone who collects playing cards...think seeing his brothre like this might freak him? ;)

HahaHA YES! Another Jack! Gah, I thought I was the only one (If it's not too obvious, I'm bound to the Jack of Diamonds card). It really gets my interest when people who choose to represent themselves with a card are able to push aside the temptation of the overdone Ace of Spades. Excellent image, too. Leaves plenty to the imagination.

Well, if we do decide to work on an entire deck of images, they could come in useful for the pip cards... ;)

You know, I had noticed the card in your latest user icon, but for some reason I hadn't developed the association with it and yourself. I probably will now!

It hadn't necessarilly been my intention to bind myself to the Jack of Hearts, I was just messing with GIMP and just suddenly had the inspiration for this, so I had to follow through. Maybe I have inadvertently bound myself to this card. Now I think about it, I always associated myself with it when I used to play cards as a child, and when learning tarot, I began to associate with the Knight of Cups, (Prince of Cups in the Thoth Deck).

Well.. maybe "bound" isn't the best way to explain my feelings towards the card, but it is one of my personal symbols (like green fire, yellow roses, left femurs..). The friends I used to RP with as my group, the Daydark Posse, each had their own symbolic standard playing card. I was going to take it to the next step and associate myself with a Tarot card, also, but nothing ever clicked with me. That's how I work -- I don't choose symbols; they choose me.

As far as tarot goes, the equivilent to diamonds is coins (or disks) and the equivilent of the Jack is the Page or Knight (Prince or Princess in Crowley based decks, which I personally prefer).

LOL. Like the way the two images merge. Looks like it's from the BDSM playing card deck. ;p
