Vinnie,
I thought that this was a very informative DVD. Mark seems to have thought of everything in discussion how to print your own custom playing cards including how to get them aligned and able to be printied on your printer. And, as a demonstration as to how versatile such specialy printed cards can be, Mark also includes a quick 3-card monte demonstrataion using cards he had printed up specially for a "special occasion" situation. IMHO, a very worthwhile DVD to own-especially for professional performers who wish to tailor an easy card effect to a spceific event (a child's birthday, a Christmas event, a corporate trade show, etc.) Mike
Magic is a vanishing Art.

Go for it man! I suggest you use a laser printer though!

Thanks so much guys!! The only problem is that I have an Ink Jet printer... :-/
Will this be THAT much of a problem? Or is there a solution to this? Well, thanks so much guys! -Vinnie PS... What are ALL the requrements you will need to create/print these cards? Like, everything I will need to buy/have? Thanks! |

Ink Jet is fine.
Get some blank cards, and the rest of the stuff you need will be around the house. (You might need to run to the store for one thing, but I'm not going to mention it here.) It is a very good DVD and a worthwhile purchase. Tony |

Excuse me... If you are planning on doing anything other than crude cartoon like images, then do not bother with this. It WILL NOT make real gimmicked cards... As has been stated in previous reviews it is a very inferior product. Also a good working knowledge of Photoshop is required to do anything of any real use. And then ONLY with high end laser printers with special feed devices. And even then the cards have to be specially treated. So in all... STAY AWAY!
If you ever get to a point where words have no meaning, you're probably talking to a dog.

This is a tough choice for me. Does the fact that it's 10 years old make it dated?
