New Deck Exchange Idea's and Thoughts

[purple_scorp]

Hey all, I agree that it may not be a high priority but really believe that the deck exchange needs a bit of a tidy up.

It's mainly the deck titles that I'm talking about. I agree that it makes it difficult to find decks if there are spellling errors in the title and some of the cards in the actual decks are out of sequence (numbering) or missing all together. And, I'm not sure if they have all been recategorised into Tarot/Cartomancy/Oracle yet?

I think the CardData.xml files could do with a tidy up too. I know that some Card Notes were uploaded after the decks (and sometimes by totally different people) and that's why they sit in the CardData.xml Files section. But it would make more sense if they were actually added to the deck zip file, or if there was some way of knowing (a link or something) that Notes do actually exist for that deck. So that once you've downloaded the deck, it asks if you would like to download the CardData.xml file too.

While we're writing our Christmas Lists, I would like to be able to sort by which decks have Card Notes. So say for example, just view the Oracle decks with Card Notes. (I know I've talked about this elsewhere on the zone - because I wanted an easy way of identifying those decks in my own Deck List that have notes and as a temporary measure, I add - N to the end of the relevant deck name to denote that).

I would also like to see the Major Arcana only decks differentiated from the Full Tarot Decks (perhaps add it in as a deck type/radio button).

Not trying to put pressure on you Richard, because I am very happy with what you've done. So just add it to your evergrowing list of things to do....

Just thought I'd post my two cents worth. What do others think?
