Business Cards

Not sure if I like this one or not. It's still a work in progress but I'm trying. Originally the background was orange and red but that was to conflicting with the animals. This one seems more soothing????

You should use a bolder font for the title of the company so that the Crestie looks more natural hanging there. At least for the first letters of the 2 words. The leo looks a bit thin, is that how you cropped it?

I like the background.

Stephanie, thanks for the thoughts on the font. The leo is a juvi and still growing. I really liked the background also, Unfortunately I made it in photo shop and only saved the whole design as a jpeg. I forgot to save the background seperately. oops.

Me too, Me too!! I've tried quite a few different designs for business cards and nothing looks exceptionally great. Any ideas? My website looks like crap too, so when I get that redone I'll probably get some business cards made up. I was just wondering what you guys could come up with. BTW, all these cards look great!

Here's my PICTURES.

Just wondering what y'all think of the card I made for myself... (this isn't the actual file of the card...I shrunk, decreased resolution, and saved as a jpeg just to post it here...)

That looks great! Got any ideas for a Peach State Geckos card?

Here's one I just made up.

Here Katie... real quickly threw this together for you (What else is there to do on a Friday night? lol). Obviously the pictures need more touching up... but as a few general ideas... I still have the larger source as well if you wanted any of them tweaked (color, font, size, background, ect). They are the same basic layout but that can be rearranged as well. The rectangle in each picture shows the "safe" printable area if you were to actually submit it for printing.

Edit: Also, your website was down for a little while so I wasn't able to get your slogan (Specializing in some peachy keen designer Leos) from the site, so I just made these "personal" business cards more for you than for the business as a whole.

I was toying around with a card. I was going to use the same photo that hypogecko used, but didn't like the shedding leg, which hypogecko solved that problem by setting it on the bottom like that. I was going to use the "motto" also. Hypogecko and Milwaukee Reptiles put plenty up though, which is good, because it takes me to long to edit the geckos from the background.

Me too! Luckily Macromedia Fireworks has a tool for selecting like colors and you can set the sensitivity... I'd be so lost without that tool. It's not perfect but it cuts out quite a bit of it.
