Seems the vertical cards are the latest trend.

Nice card Tony, the front and back has a nice contast.
My brother was round at my house tonight showing me a couple of ideas he is working on (graphic designer).
Thinking about going for a transparent one with round corners with no photos.
Something a bit different.
Looking forward to seeing what the other photo cats have!

Cheers
BK

We worked really hard on these cards, and spent a small fortune on them, but it is worth it. I have never seen any business cards like them, and they fit our branding perfectly. The only warning I have is that I just snapped these images really fast, and didn't do the cards justice.

The whole set. We couldnt decide on just 1 design, so we went for 4.

Detail of the white card, just a simple white to grey gradient.

Detail of the red card, a little flame action.

Detail of the blue card, some water drop-age.

The green card... Its a leaf!

Closer up of the image side, red and white cards.

Closer up of the image side, blue and green cards.

I used to have a picture. I took it out cause I was never satisfied with the print on media that small.

Hoff, Swimr, those rock!

I had to put mine together pretty quickly, and I designed them myself, so they aren't anything amazing. I went for simplicity:

So now everything is blue. Wasn't the original idea, but I'm branding myself at least for this year.

Love the designs, everyone!

dsouzl, does the colour match your blouse?

Only kidding, I like the design in corners of the back better than the design on the top and bottom of the front.

I like the rounded corners, going with 'em this time too.

Cheers
BK

No prob. I used to be a designer too, so I understand your thoughts. I thought about keeping the 'HOFFER' in green, but it would extend out of the live area unless I really slimmed it. Plus I wanted to emphasize the blog since that's my more popular site anyway.

As far as the swirly things go... they're at 10% gray which prints much lighter than it looks on screen.
