So I'm going to get some buisness cards made up for myself. They arent really for buisness, but to give to people so they can have my phone number. Mainly women. But I still need them to double as a real buisness card, just incase I need to give them to a suit or otherwise. I'm going to have my title as "Computer Consultant" but I'm not sure what a good picture on it would be. Or layout, for that matter. I know a guy who owns a print shop, so I can get them done on the cheap. But I need to go in there with a design, but first I need a small tasteful graphic to put on them. Any suggestions?

I wouldnt put anything too detailed. On business cards I would keep it fairly simple and to the point.

Example:

----------------------------------------------------------
| Billy Bob Computer Analyst |
|---------------------------------------------------------
|Phone |
|email |
|etc LOGO |
| LOGO |
| LOGO |
-----------------------------------------------------------

If it gets too cluttered people will have a sensory overload and probably go into seizures and fall over.

Like I say, just keep it simple.

EDIT:That didnt turn out anything like how I typed it....Oh well, Im sure you get the idea.

Actually, I'm sorry, but I didnt. My buddy made some cards, and he had a nice small tasteful logo on the upper left hand corner. I want something like that, that is how most buisness cards are laid out that I've seen.

Ya, sorry, my little design didnt work out so good.

Thats kinda the effect I was going for as well.

[bla!!]

I would try and make one using your initials or some other text based graphic.

Then spiff it up in photoshop. Take a peek on www.good-tutorials.com for some nice text effects.


There's usually a company logo in the upper left or lower right, then the comany name/address/phone/e-mail on the right, then the website across the bottom.
