egypturnashI made a slick little web page for the Tarot deck. Probably broken in Explorer; it was when I looked at it from work. Does fine in Safari and Firefox, though. Requires Javascript.
I was up until 4AM Sunday night hacking on this. Sigh. Looks nice, though. I'm most proud of the fact that I don't have to update any links to add a new card; the JS will detect failing to load an image and substitute the 'Coming Soon' card. I'll have to update the thumbnail image manually, though; it's not worth the time it'd take to make that be automatically generated when I post a new image. The thumbnails are all jammed into one wiiiiiide jpeg to speed up the initial page load - ~100k is hefty, but it's better than 85 seperate http requests.
I'm debating if I want to have any text about the cards pop up when the card appears. Probably not; I like the sparseness.
