Artpoker

[SimonH]

Has anyone (Nemesis springs to mind) tried (or even heard of) Artpoker?

You can download skins to jazz up the poker tables on most major cardrooms.

Saw it in a magazine and a rather fetching stars table done up like the Union Jack caught my eye.

I'm a bit paranoid to download any external products that will alter the software.

Is it safe?

I've heard of them and, as far as I know its safe (its actually quite easy to do these mods to some of the sites yourself).

The only problem I have with them is that they are doing the exact opposite with the mods to what I want them to do.  Plain, simple, easy on the eye mods are what's needed for multi-tabling rather than a load of gimmicky pictures.

Each to their own though.

Some are easier than others

ive used one from a different site - went back to the normal one though

have you all tried out testpokerstars.com

its a pokerstars website with resizeable tables and completely modded tables backgrounds etc

unfortunately it is only play money but it shows how good the new pokerstars software will be

[TheJagster]

Ive got it on my machine....good for a giggle for a few mins but I end up with the usual after a bit cos there easer to play.

If you fancy playing stars with the US Army Iraqi playing cards for a bit then give it a go!

They make money through affiliate schemes .... if you try and use a card set for a site not on your machine it allows you to download through their affiliate scheme.

If you like that sort of stuff give it a go......seems harmless to me!

I use ArtPoker on full tilt as i dont like their cartoon backgrounds, instead I have the one of Chris Ferguson and some chip stacks. The site just does what it says on the tin.
