I love the concept. I love that it's smart enough to use a regex to figure out the card type.

As others have said, some minor instructional text would help people get started. Also, making the name and expiration fields more obvious from the start (more obvious that they're fields and more obvious that they will need to be filled out) would also be helpful.

Having to click to flip the card is probably the biggest problem (though fixable). Typically when filling out a form, I suspect most people use the tab key to go from field to field. Having to go back to the trackpad/mouse and click on a spot slows things down. Maybe have the card automatically flip if you hit tab after the expiration field?

Definitely a good idea! I've got a ticket in on it, and will spend some time thinking about a well-designed solution: https://github.com/kenkeiter/skeuocard/issues/25
