Short: Make card houses/castles with Imagine

Heres a chance to rediscover those simple pleasures of
childhood. Build card castles or houses even if you have
little manual dexterity or live in an earthquake zone !
All you need is this card house construction kit, a fast Amiga
and nothing better to do.
The kit comes with the basic component (a card).
Actually it comes with several cards, but you can re-jig them
to make more or design your own, Tarot maybe ?
There are 320x512 bit maps in the pics drawer that you can
modify (or shrink) to make new faces.
Use DPaint to edit the pics, but watch out that it doesn't try
to save a 640x512 image when you only want 320x512, otherwise
the pictures will end up compressed sideways, as Imagine
converts the bit map to fit the card object. (If you're short
of ram make the bit maps smaller with AdPro or similar, Imagine
makes the files 24 bit, so you can run out of memory pretty
quickly !)
If you don't like the obverse, design your own, I stuck the
axes on back to front so your image will need to be flipped.
To put a new bit map in place load the card object in the
'Detail' editor and alter the pointer to the bit map using the
attributes requester. You can change the front or the back of
the card very simply, so change what you fancy.
The current stage setting is very basic, just add more cards to
build bigger houses !
Enjoy !!
