I'm looking for a place to do some business cards, didn't like the templaets that Millers offered. Any good recommendations? My cards will be all black with white logo.

Like so:

I find the best place for business cards is in the hands of clients.

Why use a template? You have camera ready art- upload it!

VistaPrints.com Very inexpensive and after your first order, they give you lots of free stuff. $4.50 to upload your artwork, but they'll print it on anything.

ugh, avoid the SPAMMERS at Vista Print. Sure, they are cheap, but they print on crappy stock and I have even seen their logo on people's card that they hand me - so tacky.

try Overnightprints.com - very heavy cardstock and good prices too

I use Overnight prints as well. Good printing and on thick stock. The only bad thng is that they are a little expensive on post and packing but the print charges are a little less. Overall they were the best deal apart from the super cheap deals.

Please don't take this the wrong way........but I don't understand why business card vendors are such a huge topic on photography forums. I've seen threads go on for pages.

I go through ten to fifteen thousand cards per year, which represents about a five hundred dollar investment. My business card process consists of walking into a local print shop, telling them what I want, asking the price and turn around time for an order, placing the order and getting on with the rest of my life. So, seriously, am I missing something?

To answer the OP's question. The closest print shop is a logical place to start.

I personally use PaperBouquet: http://www.paperbouquet.com

Granted, I share my home studio with the owner... I'd recommend contacting her for a quote - very high quality cards at a good price.
