I just received my Icehouse pieces today (along with a wide variety of RPG and other dice), so Ill be starting my studies soon.  As for decks, I have just over 20 of them now, so I have plenty of motifs to choose from in that regard,  In fact, one of the things I want to test is the use of various themed decks.  I specialize in medieval and Arthurian themed decks.  Here is a list of them all:
 
ARTHURIAN (Hallowquest)
ARTHURIAN (Legend)
HOLY GRAIL (Lo Scarabeo)
CELTIC (Lo Scarabeo)
GRAIL TEMPLAR
MERLIN
COSMIC
AQUARIAN
ZODIAC
VAMPIRE
LORD OF THE RINGS (I also want to study this combination tarot/card game)
NAVIGATORS OF THE MYSTIC SEA
ARCUS ARCANUM
WORLD SPIRIT
CELESTIAL
VOYAGER (huge cards, larger than most, very detailed)
TAROT CLASSIC
RIDER WAITE (Radiant)
RIDER WAITE (Pocket Sized)
GIGANY KARTYA (Romanian - Gypsy)
GYPSY WITCH
ZERNER/FARBER
BLANK DECK (Im going to create some of my own, probably a set like "flash cards" with divinatory meanings for each card written on them and then Ill illustrate around it, one of my art projects for this year, heheh)
 
That should be a good variety of decks that will fit into the game, dont ya think?  :)
 
Oh, I also do virtual art in Second Life, and Im gonna experiment around with a virtual version of the games too (I have a Tarot shoppe there and can create working decks of anything if I have the scans, and tons of them are available at the taroteca site).  My name is "Alexander Howl" there, get in touch if you're into that too.  :)
