Marseilles anyone?

Post by sKenn »

I'm new here and loving this program and forum.

Does anyone know where i could download all the Marseilles deck or have put together a Marseilles deck already that they could share?

Deos anyone know of a site that has the graphics for several tarot decks that i could download and put into Orphalese?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hey and welcome Kenn:)

I don't know about Marseille deck, but we haven't much decks to share for the moment. We was hit by the copyright spook and Richard had to close down the deck exchange.
They are working on bringing it back up with decks who haven't copyright or where the copyright owner say ok.
You are still able to scan you images and put them into orphalese, but Richard as an company can not offer to be a central for it.
good hunt:)

Aloha, Kenn!

There are several Marseilles decks, some of which (samples only) are depicted here: http://www.aeclectic.net/tarot/cards/marseilles.shtml

I'm hoping that when the Deck Exchange returns, at least one of the Marseilles decks will be available for download. All depends on copyright permission: some decks will be available for download, some won't. We're all eager to see which decks pass muster!

Meantime, below is the link to a site that contains entire decks. I didn't see Marseilles there, but you might find something else there worth Orphalising. Orphalising a deck is a lot of work, though, so you might also want to wait until the Deck Exchange returns to see if the deck(s) you want are already there. Here's that link: http://www.tarotforum.net/showthread.php?t=17948

Speaking of Orphalising, there is no set rule on the order of cards, but the standard here for Tarot decks is Wands, Cups, Swords, Pentacles. For playing cards it's Clubs, Hearts, Spades, Diamonds.

All the best,
