Playing Card Designer Brief
Create a modern version of this.
/playing-card-maker/
Potentially with the ability to use in both WordPress but also via creating an app that links to the designer and so customers can download app and create their playing cards too – WordPress most important but app was an afterthought.
FEATURES:
1. I can setup multiple products at various sizes… ie. Standard Poker (88x63mm), or Square cards (65x65mm) and save these in the system. Now they can choose which one or I can direct them specially to “Standard Poker” for eg… and they now have the designer displayed for that particular product. IMPORTANT – Each item must be able to setup a specific BLEED – so if the final artwork size is 88x63mm but I choose a 3mm bleed it would be 91x66mm – Please SHOW BLEED and card outline on preview display and CLEARLY let the customer know their design MUST fill the page – not just go to the outline of the playing card. Each product has the ability to set how many cards… i.e. 56 cards, 54 etc.
2. Responsive and modernised with ability to change button colours and tab colours – Perhaps with future ability of dark mode.
3. Must be embeddable in any website… I mostly use wordpress and elementor so creating shortcodes would be fabulous to display the designer.
4. Quick Preview brings up ajax window showing full preview of all cards with front and back options
5. So an area they can upload an image… and area they can upload text and edit size and font etc, and an additional area which would be Icons where I can upload svg files with specific colour values i.e. playing card pips and these remain the same colour values in adobe illustrator on export. I can setup clipart galleries i.e. (Playing card pips, cars, weddings, etc and I can upload into these… AND the ability for them to upload their own which doesn’t get saved onto our system just their final artwork.
6. Must have a way for each card to choose if they want the FULL STANDARD FACE, SEMI PERSONALISATION (Shows just the pips) or FULLY PERSONALISED (starts off blank)
7. Copy card feature so they can quickly copy one design to another… only thing that wouldn’t change is the value of the card i.e. 7Spades or 6 Diamonds unless it’s fully customised.
8. Backgrounds… They can choose from colours but I want to offer more choices… i.e. mountains, squirrels etc so again categories I can setup – they select one and it displays all possible images.
9. All images must work with a bleed which can be set manually
10. Same back for all 52 cards with a tickbox.. but if they unselect then we have the ability to add a specific back to ANY OF THE CARDS… Not sure best way to make this possible but most importantly want it to be EASY TO UNDERSTAND for the customer.
So to be clear ALL the artwork for the playing cards will be uploaded to this system in advance.. they can choose either full card or pips only or fully blank…. When they output all the pips and card faces will always keep the same svg colour values of the original file.
Admin area
1. For them to save they must fill out a form – similar to but easier than: /quote
2. This form automatically creates a “HOLD” order in woocommerce and uploads the designs to a downloadable zip package which I can download somehow easily. Files must be presented in , , . and , , and so on. This way I can link artboards in Adobe illustrator to automatically place the images for me.
3. Add ability to change the output of all the cards to either Portrait or Landscape for the zip file which will re-generate file for me to download.
4. Ability for customer to go back after submitting the designs and re-edit them (not sure best way to do this)
5. Way for me to clear images / data over x months old etc to save space on server
Hope this all makes sense.
