Just click the green flag and realise that this uses ONE sprite and NO cloning.
A deck of cards using small images for use in projects where larger cards fill the screen too much. The whole deck can be seen as separate cards all at once. Feel free to use in your own projects - a credit would be nice ;-) The main script displays the cards and then clears them which may help show how to do this. I've set up a couple of reverse sides as costume 55; just decide which you want or create your own using the blank and copy to costume 53 replacing the one that's there and setting the costume centre to the lower left corner after deleting everything but the card image you want. (Previously loaded under a different username but changed to deck26 to match my web site.)
