Useful Link for Playing Card Images

I stumbled across this web-site for anyone who may be looking for a link for useful images of playing cards to make flashcards for learning purposes etc.:

I am not crazy about the Jokers the site uses and I have opted to use these ones instead:

A while back, I posted links to my files containing images of all single cards and also every possible 2-card pair (including with jokers) for this purpose.

How wd you get the image for KD and 8D?

PS: I first see Kaved (K + V =D)

correction: K + V + D

I think you may have replied to the wrong thread…

But anyways, you need a way to encode the suit information for BOTH suits. In this case they’re both diamonds, but you need to be able to differentiate between pairs like [K :spades:][8 :diamonds:] and [K :diamonds:][8 :diamonds:] (and all the other suit combos containing diamonds.)

Usually this is handled by having a sound for each value and a sound for each suit-combo. There are more than 10 card values and more than 10 suit combos. This requires expansion of a normal number system beyond the typical 10 associations (if you want to base your card system on a number system). Using your example pair, if you use typical Major System sounds for the number values, you’d run into conflict with 7 = K sound, and your use of King = K sound. How do you know that “KaVeD” doesn’t represent a 7 first instead of a King? There are many ways to handle that, all pretty thoroughly explained on this forum.

Thank you!
