That being said, I will put together the very little we have done with this and send it through on and email entitled The Wilberean Deck so those who are not interested will know to avoid it. Personally, I don't have much time to consult the tarot, (I don't check the stock market either) but i cannot help but love the imagery. There is only one gpl'ed tarot deck that I know of, it would be nice to have a second one and Wilber just might be dynamic enough to fill a 72 card deck with images and symbols. > Are there any other such ideas that have been floating around? > There is enough talent in the dusty halls of GIMP development for a brass band ... > -- > branko collin > collin@xxxxxxxxx carol
