Hey there . . .

My name is Paul Michael Kane and I am new to the forum . . . I've launched a Kickstarter Campaign last week - very proud to say that before the first 24 passed, I managed to achieve my goal! The name of the Campaign is Foto Grafis and is a custom deck of playing cards featuring my photography!

Have a look: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/pmk ... ards-phase

Joined the forum to get tips on where to promote the campaign . . .

Thanks for having a look - and Happy New Year!

Awesome! Congrats! The photography is really cool!

I haven't done any interviews of play card game creators, but I've done one of a card game creator that might help: http://www.crowdcrux.com/card-games-thr ... ckstarter/

Awesome! If you'd like to do an interview around the 12 day mark to maintain momentum, would be happy to do some Q&A and see what you have learned in that timespan. I could post it on the forum or CrowdCrux.

I did . . . I created a Facebook page for the cards . . . . https://www.facebook.com/groups/678409555506228/ . . . and kept everyone up to date on the progress of both the campaign and the production of the cards themselves . . . . think it really worked out well!

Excellent photographic work, and this is coming from another photographer. If your campaign was still live, I would back it for sure, and I hope you do another one in time. I am an older guy, 71, and I lost a lot of my work in a fire so I re-created some for a new book. My campaign is http://kck.st/1kTt1qF. I have to tell you, this is invigorating to an old guy like me. Not only the whole raising of money, but the cameraderie too. It's a new culture to me. Congratulations again on fine work and a successful campaign.
