One Of A Kind.

I've spoken about it on Pinside, but for those coming to the site from elsewhere I thought I'd share that for many titles, I'll be making several different versions of cards. Off the top of my head, here's the list I have planned that will have different featured versions:

  • Monster Bash (one for each Monster)
  • The Star Wars Trilogy (one for each original trilogy film)
  • KISS (one for each band member)
  • The Walking Dead (one for each popular character - plus a comic book version)

It'll take time for me to get different versions of a set up, because I'd like to grow my title list mainly first... But eventually I plan to have literally several different awesome versions for each title for you to choose from.

And I know I've said this in each post so far, but thanks to those of you visiting the site. Working on the site/designs each day has instantaneously become one of my favorite parts of my day. Feels so good to be finally giving back to the pinball community!

Until next time,
Chad

Old School.

A few people on Pinside mentioned that they liked how I was posting cards for newer pins as well as older ones. Just wanted to say that I'm so glad to finally be filling in the gaps that seemed to be vacant for so long! Seriously, I don't understand how some of these classic titles / characters don't have a ton of custom cards yet?? It's actually pretty astonishing to me. The thing is, the newer pins are always fun to design for, but the older ones are turning out to always be a challenge (and that's a good thing!).

Also, as you can see, I'm still updating daily... And don't plan on stopping anytime soon. So keep those requests coming! (My request list is pretty long, but there literally isn't a title I'm not excited to make for you all.) And in case you're keeping count, I'm pretty proud of how much I've been able to grow the card collection so far - I've added 18 new rule card sets since the site's launch just 4 days ago (WOOHOO!)! And this isn't even for the official launch! I'm still working on the official launch that will feature even more custom goods for your home arcade (or your business arcade)!

Lastly, thanks to those of you who have donated so far! Like I've said, this site isn't here to let me quit my day job, but eventually having the costs of the site covered would be a really great thing. And if you haven't donated and don't want to, don't worry about it! I'm 100% glad to offer all these 100% free :)

Until next time,
Chad

Night Owls

Well, I'm wrapping up another day of being totally surprised by the amount of you stopping by the site so far - thanks! Today I got a few more requests finished, Metallica (Pro), and Robocop (two versions), and things are still rolling along. I'm pretty glad to see the VIEW ALL CARDS page looking less pitiful in the numbers game now.

Anyway, the real point of this post is to let any who care know that I do have a day job (and a two year old), so I stay pretty busy during the day... So, if you're wondering when I'll usually update with new designs during weekdays, it'll usually be in the evenings. And I plan on adding new designs daily for the foreseeable future. So if you're a night owl, like me, feel free to stop by during the wee small hours of the morning (Hey! I'm listening to Frank Sinatra right now - see what I did there!?)... or if you're a morning coffee and surf the web kinda person, there's a good bet there'll be new designs waiting for ya. Oh, and weekends are free rein - I'll hopefully update a lot throughout the entire day then.

Lastly, like I've mentioned, this site will eventually be more than just rule/instruction cards. Those are the main purpose, but I do have some cool stuff planned for down the road that I haven't seen anyone else doing... I mean, come on, I am a designer and I work for a merch/screen-printing company - how could I not try and make some cool stuff happen??

Anyway, I'll set you all free into the night now. I'm off to turn into a proverbial potato whilst I watch some MST3K!

Until next time,
Chad
