Themed roulette sheets
Making myself ready for running Fastlane (and I hope to get down to it this week) I've put together some themed roulette sheets, to "soften" the impact of casino imagery if we decide on a genre in which that wouldn't be appropriate (and most probably we will). Nothing fancy, as I worked with what I could find in the depths of my hard drive and an artist I'm not - but I think such sheets should mostly solve the problem of "roulette barrier" Alex has been talking about. Well, soon I'll find out how they work in AP. For now, here they are:

Filip,
These are really pretty! I like them a lot. Thanks for making these. I might steal these and link them (with credit) from my website if you're okay with that idea.
And when you get some Fastlane play in, please, post about it here or on rpg.net or somewhere. :)

Thanks, Alex!

Better not. I'm not able to find the authors of the wallpapers I used as background pictures now, so crediting and stuff would be complicated. Actually, the links above shouldn't work right now, as I intended to make these sheets available only for some days, and I deleted the old blog which I've been using to store files few days ago (somehow, deleting the blog didn't remove the files from the server, it seems).
Anyway, my point was to demonstrate what can be done in this area. I think it would be great if you could find an actual artist who'd create some themed sheets for the game.
(Of course, if someone is willing to donate art, I can improve the template a bit, add those pictures and make them available. Aside from background pictures, it would be good to have some symbols for black and red bids, cause I don't think using font symbols makes for the best effect.)

Sure, it's high on my "to play" list. As soon as I manage to gather my regular group (this month we experienced awful scheduling problems) and convince them to play a game, I'll post some AP ;)

I made six new roulette sheets, this time using non-Anime public domain images for backgrounds. Also, I improved the layout. They can be downloaded from my blog:
