(About the author)
 
     Shows how to make a card game in VB, with API calls only. No card dlls. Customizable background, card designs & multilingual menu captions. You'll probably get bored of the game pretty fast, but it might teach you some graphical techniques. I'll try to come up with a new and even better version as soon as possible. In the meantime, keep voting for it!!!

I've included the type lib temporarily 
in the zip file now, making it about 
1MB in size. I'll modify the project as 
soon as possible & fix this.
Sorry ;)

Yes I agree,
This is an excellent 
example of card game programming in 
Visual Basic.
I wont be surprised if 
this is a Jan 2001 Code Contest Award 
Winner.
Well done! Keep up the good 
work.

I have been following PSC for about 9 
month now, and sorry, but I have never 
voted before.  This app was the first 
exception.  Best app I have seen so 
far.  Unbelievable cool!  Gave you a 5, 
keep it up!

WOW. This seems to be going quite well 
(except for that "1" rating from 
Netscaper). This was just a kind of an 
experiment, to see what fellow VB 
programmers thought of my code. It's my 
first submission to PSC, so I'm pretty 
happy about the feedback I've got. Thx!

Fabulous, I love it.
I only have one 
small suggestion.
You might want to 
make the different face cards use 
different pictures of the 
characters.
For instance.  Use Kai 
for all the king cards, but find four 
different pictures.  Make the Spade and 
Club pictures normal black-clad Kai 
(Two different pics), and make the 
heart and diamond colorful Kai's (From 
the musical episode)
Find four 
pictures of stanley, any will do, but I 
might suggest trying to keep with the 
"One-eyed Jack" theme and find 
sideways-facing pictures for those 
cards.
For Zev/Xev, I would use 
pictures of Xenia for the red cards 
because of her red hair, and use 
pictures of Eva for the black 
cards.
It would just give the prog 
that "Extra push over the cliff".  If I 
could give it more globes, I would.  
Five it will have to be, though.

I thought about using different 
pictures when i made the prog, but 
those i found didn't really fit in.. I 
must admit that I haven't followed the 
series beyond the first episodes (with 
Eva as Xev/Zev), because the local TV 
stations haven't sent much of it. My 
knowledge of the series is thus 
limited.
I've already made some 
improvements to the game(although not 
in the graphical part), and I'm hoping 
to get it free of bugs and upload it as 
soon as I have the chance. But if you 
have some different pictures of the 
characthers, that would really be a 
great help!

I know what the problem with the 
runtime error 6 above is.  If you drag 
and drop the files from the .zip into a 
folder, you will not have the bg folder 
created.  You need to click on the 
extract button so that it creates the 
folder for you properly.

U submitted this already and of course 
i loved it. You are a very talneted 
prgroammer. You program in C++ manner 
doing alot of things from scrath and i 
like that. VB should not be hella easy.

This looks really good, except for one 
little itty bitty thing... when you 
turn your number upside down for the 
bottom of the card, it comes out 
backwards. :)  Not many people would 
see it, I know, but it caught my 
attention. I haven't studied the code 
yet, but I would think all you'd have 
to do it revers the number when you 
turn it upside down. Kudos on the 
project.
