Playing Cards: What's Needed

First off, thank you so much for putting playing cards into this site. For playing cards to be useful for gaming I think a few options need to be present. Decks need to have editable options. 1. Names display option. 2. Who can shuffle, view or draw the Deck. 3. If the Deck is; Stacked w/ Faces Hidden, Fanned out (options; distance between cards, who can view revealed faces) with Faces Revealed. 4. Ability to move and lock Deck positions. 5. Cards need to have ability to be assigned numerical values. I would suggest at least ###.### places and allow negative values (999.999 to -999.999). This could be in up to 3 Fields to complement the 3 fields already used in Tokens this would allow options such as attack and defense. Also allow an option to toggle the numerical values off and instead have these special cards placed to the side when cards are matched. 6. Ability to give similar numerical values to Card combinations in the deck. 7. The option to Define which numerical fields are used when comparing two cards (again attack and defense for example). 8. Allow the moving of both single cards and the entire deck of cards to a field. Card Fields need to be implemented where deck cards can be dealt. These Card Fields would have many options allowing them to act as temporary holding places for cards to dealt to and played from or to link them to playing fields so that any cards within the linked Card Field will count toward all linked Playing Fields. 1. Names display option. 2. Allow the moving of both single cards and the entire field of cards to another field. 3. Ability to link cards to Playing Fields (singular or the entire group), any card within a Card Field would be counted towards the linked Playing Fields on adjudication. 4. Ability to move and lock field positions. Playing Fields need to be implemented where cards can be shifted from playing fields or dealt from decks, these fields would have many options. 1. Names display option. 2. The ability to link multiple playing fields. 3. An adjudicate button for all linked Playing Fields. This would when pressed calculate the cards numerical values against each other. 4. The option to designate a Playing Field as "Dealer," this would add a toggle able button that would switch the playing filed between normal and "dealer" modes. In "dealer" mode other playing fields would only be measured against the "dealer" to adjudicate the card outcome. 5. Ability to move and lock field positions. If these options are added into your site I believe it should handle most card games which should allow those who use cards for RPG's for what ever reason the ability to do so easily.
