I sorta like the blue velvet but that card design leaves me cold -

you have ads and ask for donations on your site - this may be construed as spamming, but good luck.

Wierd question/thread hijack:

I much prefer the simpler designs such as pokermod. But call me a fish, but I actually *like* the avatars in place. This is because some part of my subconcious mind keeps track of the visual images much easier when multi-tabling. So when I have some recent history with, say, seat 4 on table 3, I will remember how we tangled in the past much better with an image, than without.

Is this just one of my idiosyncrasaties, or do other people have this? Furthermore, are there any "clean" skins which can have the avatars but not look stupid? Would it be possible to replace the avatars with simpler, cleaner avatars? Perhaps just even a skin with some sort of visual symbol/represntation placed in the position of each seat.

FWIW: It's a free service and many people find this site useful, I don't think the accusations of spamming are fair in this case.

Yeah I know what your saying, but the visual co-ordination thing def. helps, believe me. E.g. some part of my brain remembers it is that particular image at that particular table. I did try and adapt to playing without avatars and i found it harder remembering who had done what.

I have this exact same experience. I just thought I was some sort of freak.

ok, i think im an idiot, but im having a problem with these waffle card mods:

when i dl'd the card mods for party that waffle did, all of the clubs and diamonds dont work. i see that the original party files are called 2c, 2d, 3c, 3d, etc. whereas on the waffle files they are called 2cg, 2db, 3cg, 4db, etc. note that this is only a problem with the clubs and diamonds.

the other (hearts and spades) card files from waffle work fine because they seemed to be named correctly. and the waffle files wont let me change their names, so i cant get this to work.

i end up havnig 1/2 normal party cards (the clubs and diamonds) and 1/2 cool waffle cards (the spades and hearts), which, as you can imagine, is worse than before.

any idea? thanks!

That isn't true, but if the 4 seat gets up and a new guy sits down before you notice it, you'll be incorrectly adjusted to the new guy.

Thats why I stopped using the avatars myself.

That has been a problem in the past, but I only max 4-table and do tend to notice when a person changes. Even when I miss it I generally notice the stats are different.

I'm seriously thinking about mocking up a quick table with some simple symbols over each chair. Good/bad idea? Any suggestions?

It'd be cool if the mod could read off poker tracker and put an avatar of a fish, rock, what have you, at each seat.
