Valentine's Day Card Set
-----------------------
<http://www.goodsol.com/pgs/cardsets.html>

Our latest new card set, the Valentine's Day Card Set, is now available. This card set features card face and back designs for Valentine's Day. This card set is for registered users of Pretty Good Solitaire (or FreeCell Wizard or Spider Wizard) only. You can download the Valentine's Day Card Set from <http://www.goodsol.com/pgs/cardsets.html>.


New Version of Spider Wizard
----------------------------
<http://www.spiderwizard.net>

A new version 2.0 of Spider Wizard is now available! It can be downloaded from <http://www.spiderwizard.net>. This is the first of what will be many new releases of our games in 2003.

Spider Wizard is a collection of 16 Spider type games, including Spider, Spider One Suit, Spider Two Suits, and more.

Spider Wizard is essentially a small version of Pretty Good Solitaire with just Spider type games and is intended for people who just like Spider and not other types of games.

Version 2.0 brings Spider Wizard up to our latest technology. You can now use Pretty Good Solitaire card sets in Spider Wizard (by default it uses the traditional card set).

Two games in Spider Wizard have changed. The Black Widow and Tarantula games have been replaced with the games Spider One Suit and Spider Two Suits. These are actually the same games, except that Spider One Suit has all spades cards and Spider Two Suits is all Spades and Hearts. Otherwise they play exactly the same as Black Widow and Tarantula and are easier versions of Spider.

Spider fans can download the trial version of Spider Wizard from <http://www.spiderwizard.net>.


We Do Euros
------------
<http://www.goodsol.com/orderonline.html>

We take orders by credit card on our web site in five different currencies: US dollars, Euros, British Pounds, Canadian Dollars, and Australian Dollars. Recently the US Dollar-Euro exchange rate has made buying Pretty Good Solitaire the cheapest it is has ever been in Euros. At last check the price was 22.38 Euros, a nice discount to the regular US$24 price. The exchange rate changes every day and there is no telling whether it will go up or down, but there is no question that this is a great time for Europeans to buy Pretty Good Solitaire. Our order pages will normally detect your locale and price in the appropriate currency automatically, but if not you can just go to <http://www.goodsol.com/orderonline.html>, and click on Euros in the non-USA section on the right side of the page.

Happy New Year!

Goodsol Forum
--------------
<http://www.goodsol.net/forum>

We have a new web discussion forum on our web site. The Goodsol Discussion Forum at <http://www.goodsol.net/forum> is where you can post questions about Pretty Good Solitaire or any of our other games, and also post questions and discuss solitaire in general.

To start things out we have a topic for questions about Pretty Good Solitaire, a topic for questions about Pretty Good MahJongg, and others. There is a topic for asking whether a particular solitaire game is in Pretty Good Solitaire (since some games are known by many different names, you might not be able to find it in the list of games even if you know its name). There is a topic for asking whether a specific game number of a specific game can be won. For example, you could post whether anybody has been able to win FreeCell game #11983. Someone who has played it and won it can respond.

The forum is intended not only for users to ask questions to us, but also for players to discuss with each other. The current topics are only a starter list, if people are interested in something we can add a topic for it to the forum. The forum is brand new, so just jump right in. You can create a login and password if you like, but it isn't required to post or to read the forum in the public topics.

During our most recent beta test we had a similar group for our beta testers and it was a big success. The testers enjoyed being able to have discussions with each other. So we decided to create a community site for solitaire players!

Discuss solitaire at the Goodsol Forum at <http://www.goodsol.net/forum>, or go to our home page at <http://www.goodsol.com> and click on the Discussion forum link at the top of the page.
