Hi,
I am glad they came in! When you said they hadn't arrived I was holding my breath a bit, hoping they didn't get lost in the mail.
I am so happy you like them!
And Becky, sorry to hear you got the flu, we all made the rounds with one over here recently too. Happy you liked them as well!

<<What are your plans for the original paintings of the cards? Do you plan on showing them in a gallery, or selling them? Or do you plan to keep them?>>
What I have been planning on doing with them was hopefully to show them in galleries for a time, maybe take them to some of the tarot conferences and such and then to sell them. I am starting to reconsider though, I wonder if it would be a bad idea to break them up in case they ever need to be re-scanned or photographed? Maybe a better idea would be to keep them together in a safe place, put them on ice.
I don't know. I suppose it is something I should discuss with any potential publisher and will be affected by who owns what rights.
I can see why they might need to be rephotographed one day. I was looking over some of the older originals yesterday as I was packing them up for LATS when I realized the colors on my scans were quite a bit different for some of the cards. I tried to match them as closely as possible when I first scanned them, but over time a little tweak here, a little tweak there, changes in computer software and hardware, and the image shifts. Who knows what new technology will be coming in the future which can make better images from the originals?
Of course this all assumes anyone will be interested in subsequent printings one day LOL.
Too much info???
