I Ching of Love Displays Incorrectly

I have no idea what's going on with this one

The images are 341 x 691 pixels. I open them up in IrfanView and they display correctly, but they won't display correctly in Orphalese 7. It looks like the program is only using the width for both dimensions as the cards are displaying as squashed squares.

I don't know if it did this in previous versions of Orphalese because I didn't install it until I installed the new V. 7 or Orphalese.

I opened up the various XML files and didn't see anything that was only specifying one dimension, so I'm baffled. My other decks are fine.

Can someone help please? Thanks--

You are right. I downloaded them, and they are squares instead of the 341 X 691. Thats strange too.
But I haven't a clue as to why. I open them up in IrfanView thumbnails and see the correct size. Humm, how odd.

I open this deck up in IrfanView and even reduced the size to 243 X 434 and they still show square in a spread. Now I'm completly baffled. Sorry I couldn't help!

The problem with this deck is that it is missing a zero card. The program uses the dimensions of the zero card to apply to the rest of the deck (the program doesn't support decks with cards of different sizes). Because this card is missing the program simply represents the deck as being square. You could renumber the cards, or add in a dummy zero card with the right proportions.

Ah hah! The one thing I didn't even look at!

Kinda like that Sherlock Holmes joke where he is trying to get his side kick to look up and tell him what he see. There was only sky that was visible. What was missing was the tent! I guess our tent is the missing 0 card! LOL!

Thanks Richard, you're a doll!

Ahhhhhh, no problem, I will do that right away.

I always wondered what would happen if there wasn't a zero card.....

Thank you Richard.
