Thanks for this Jean-Michel. Visual Tarot is indeed a scam. Visual Tarot has spammed tarotpedia repeatedly, on all of our main pages, to the point where we have to check it every day to see if he has been by to spam more Visual Tarot links. Visual Tarot is a thief, and a hacker, may his karma come quickly to him.

Thanks for this useful information. I would like to mention that this Visual Tarot business has also been a problem for Wikipedia! They persist in spamming this product in the External Links of the tarot articles.

The use and supply of images by this program IS illegal, both in Russia (where the perpetrator Lapshkin lives) and in Canada (where the server for the program currently is). The perpetrator claims urban-myth of ‘use of 10% is OK’ but that’s absolute rubbish, as Russia and Canada both apply reciprocal copyright laws – ie, my deck is registered at the US Library of Congress, and use such as Lapshkin’s is clearly in breach of that.
