List of decks goes here in three columns and below that is a giant table of decks by individual card (Fool<\/em>) and back of card, with a caption\u00a0of the card deck name, designer, artist (if applicable), and company who made it; oh and also the year of its origin. Make this an HTML table and sort the decks alphabetically (have to do this by hand, so make the list of decks first, alphabetize them, and then make the table. I will probably have to shoot, reshoot, and get reshots of each deck for this. Scans can work as well, as all we need are the card images and backs.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
