Sex card
From Witcher Wiki
Sex cards (also called sexcards) within The Witcher are a trophy of sorts which can be collected over the course of the game. Whenever Geralt sleeps with a female character (or NPC) in the game, you collect a sex card.
These cards are reminiscent of early 20th century novelty "naughty" postcards. Each card is initially presented during a "sex cut scene". These cut scenes all open showing a hazy red closeup of Geralt leaning in suggestively to make love to an NPC. The sex card image is then overlaid. Originally, the North American edition of the game has the more prudish versions of the cards, i.e. with covered or lacking nipples and buttocks, but with the release of the Director's Cut patch uncensored cards are now available in North America without the use of modifications.

Once a card has been acquired, it becomes accessible via the journal as a little heart icon superimposed on the character image frame for each time there has been an encounter. Character entries with a more general moniker, like People of the Outskirts, can only be gained by this way.
Depending on which love interest, Shani or Triss, Geralt decides to go with, you'll have two little heart icons on that character journal entry image.
[edit] Notes
As Geralt wanders through Vizima and the area, you'll overhear the townsfolk saying such gems as: "A witcher! Hide your women!", an insight into how the locals view witchers' sexual appetites (although it may be simple racism).
Sex Cards scale with your selected screen or window resolution. While no detail is added during up-scaling, detail is lost during down-scaling. The Sex Cards on this site are roughly the size of those in a game running 1680x1050 resolution.
