I have been reading the various threads/geeklists relating to Arts Cow Card Decks, and thought it may be handy to have a list of all the card sets that people have had done, with direct links to the albums they have made.
So if you have made a deck and would like to share the files with others, add it to the list.
PLEASE NOTE: Some items have been removed from this list as they violate the site policies against posting content which aids in making copies of published games without clear consent from the rights holders. Please do not post items that fall into this category.
It has been suggested that this list might be better in alphabetical order, to assist in finding games. So now it is. 
If you want some good advice on how to successfully make a deck, visit this thread: http://www.boardgamegeek.com/thread/395699
UPDATE: "There has been some confusion about how to create a link to read-to-buy cards, but I think with the help of Wulf Corbett and Grimwald, we've worked it out. To create an album of pre-edited cards with an 'add to cart option', the album creator should click the link in the Silverlight editor that says 'share with friends'. Then, on the next screen where you can email to a friend, you have to click the checkbox that says 'Allow add to cart'. That provides you with a working link that can be posted. I believe (though I'm not certain) that this does not allow you to go through the process of editing the album to combine decks, customize and such, so this method does subtract some utility." - As suggested by Nick L (nicodemus055)

I created a set of RGB color cards to help me pick colors when making game prototypes. I do quite a few card games and I like to color code the suits, among other things. Anyway, being (a) colorblind, and (b) the opposite of artistic, my colors frequently don't come out the way I intend, especially as printers and monitors vary quite a bit.
So, print these cards on YOUR printer to have a handy set of color samples. The list item here links to the the zip file of PNG formatted cards, and I uploaded these to Artscow as well, where I intend to print 2x of each card so I will have a handy reference to how MY homemade cards will turn out on THEIR printers.
Hope this is useful to others.

From http://www.cheapass.com/freegames/12days :
On the 12th day of Christmas, my true love gave to me... a card game completely for free!
This game is so large that it takes up most of two decks, and (unfortunately) the decks can't have mixed back designs, so you'll have to sort the Gift Deck from the Holiday Deck by using the fronts. (It's not that hard). That being said, here are links to the TWO DECKS you'll need to print if you want to make this project at ArtsCow.
12 Days Deck (Odd cards and some of the 12s)
12 Days Deck (Even cards minus some of the 12s)
(please note that the associated image, plus the other two I've just uploaded, are of cards from www.printerstudio.com)

This game could be considered a dungeon crawl but I think I've been able to make it a bit left of center from hat you'd normally expect.

3 new games innovatively using 1 deck of 54 custom cards, all set in the Aether Captains world.
Players supply 5d6 to share and 24 eurocube sized markers per player. All the games are designed to share components and be able to be played quickly by 2 players in a compact space. Deck includes all cards to play each game, cards which are the game boards, and all the rules. Designed for print and play fans and also available as an Artscow order.
These games came about because I had wanted to fill an Artscow order that was short a few cards. In the process I developed these three very different games, all built for 2 players since that has been a request, though Celinian Trader can be played solo as well.
Now available as an Artscow order - http://www.artscow.com/gallery/card/aether-captains-triad-13...

Thanks to James Hebert (jhebert), Airborne in my Pocket is finally available on ArtsCow.
It's a free Print-N-Play game that plays mostly solitaire. Inspired by Zombie in my Pocket, ABimP puts you in the combat boots of an Allied paratrooper sent behind enemy line to prepare the Normandy Landings of D-Day. The ArtsCow deck contains all the necessary cards to play the Basic and Advanced game. The Rulebook and Campaign Book are available on the game page, in the files section.
Join the Airborne! Kick some Nazi ass! And help us win the war!

Having taught this game to my casual-gaming family, I discovered that the Senate (SPQR) tiles are somewhat lacking in their iconography, and an oft-referenced player aid is necessary for players to accurately grasp how each tile scores. This makes this an unnecessarily frustrating part of learning this otherwise great super-filler.
So, these cards replace those tiles, with the necessary information on each card.
I have added text detailing exactly how they score, adapted from the rules. Also, I have added an icon, the flag, as a reminder that the Patricians must be allocated to a Province in order to count.
Here is the Album:

and a deck design
http://www.artscow.com/share/2jppspmbe2iq
I zoomed out 2 clicks, but I'm not sure that's the best.
Yes, there are only 19 cards, so you may want to use a generic back and fill out the deck with other cards.
Here are jpegs of the cards, to use how you like. Consider paste-ups instead of cards, although the dimensions of the tiles are different.
edit: included are some images of the card backs, as placeholders.

Another mousepad game board using an altered picture of glass tiles - requires small chess pieces or homemade pieces to play.

Here are the contract cards and event cards for my Auf Achse USA variant.
All you'll need to do is print out the USA map. It fits perfectly on the back of the original game board.
Our game group enjoys this variant much better because it's a bit easier to visualize where your trucks are going (not many of us are from Germany!)
