Screenshots (Opens in separate window, please be patient while pics load.) .
	Custom Card Meanings/ Position Meanings: Create and Save any amount of custom meanings. The default file with card interpretations is very basic as it is intended that users will refine & develope their own meanings, and/or use different meanings for different purposes or Castings, therefore CardMage allows you to Create & Save as many 'meaning' files as you wish - depending on your disk space - and edit / alter card definitions as you see fit. The 'Divination Only' spreads and Tree of Life spread also allow for editing the Position meanings. .
	Print/Save: Print all Spellcasts and Divination Spreads. Printouts of Spellcast and Divination Spreads include all graphics (Cards - Spell motifs etc.) and custom Card meanings and Position meanings. Also, printout of 'card interpretation' files that you have saved to disk so you can keep a record of them. .
	Card Decks: Use alternate Decks. The program includes two (default) Card Decks. Create and Install your own Decks. (NEW ver.3.0). To create your own deck(s), please see downloads for using the TemplateCards.
