OK guys, we revamped the way the card images work and added the option to use small suit images. You can use the big cards as before, or the number with suit, or both, it's entirely up to you. The main reason this was done is to make hand converters more compatible with our forum since the TightPoker converter does not support very many sites.

We decided to make our forum compatible with formats used by popular converters, namely LeggoPoker as it is compatible with PokerStars, Full Tilt (including tournament hands,) Party Poker, and Ultimate Bet, and they are steadily adding support for other sites. Leggo is my preferred converter because they offer the most options, but here is a list of popular converters (in order of personal preference) if you don't care for it:

• LeggoPoker HH Converter
• FTR HH Converter
• TightPoker HH Converter
• neildewhurst HH Converter (must log in to use)

To convert your hand, first open up your preferred converter, I recommend the LeggoPoker Hand History Converter. BEFORE pasting in your raw hand history, you will need to select which format to use. If you want to use the big cards, select "Internet Texas Holdem (ITH)." If you want to use the inline suits (for example, 4 A etc) select "Flop Turn River Forums (FTR)." Then make SURE to click "Save Settings." Paste the Raw HH in and click "Convert Hand." Copy the output, paste it into your post here, preview it and post it! No more clunky picking around to fix the output.

If you have a live hand to post, or are curious what the new codes are, read on.


The new code for the big card images will work as follows. (Also note that the old tag with a colon on either side will continue to work for the time being):
will yield the card images


To get a suit image, just wrap the suit you want to display with colons, like so:
and you will get an output like this -- 4 J 2 7

Good luck at the tables all. If you need more info or if you start getting erros, PM Mewsiclovr or Randy, or just make a post about it in Forum Suggestions/Complaints. Thanks!
