Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Ryan or Stephanie, or anybody else, maybe you can help me.
I designed my own business card, and it looks good printed on my printer, but I want "real" cards, you know like the old days, rather than ones that look like they were printed on a regular printer (even from a print shop). Hope that makes sense.
Anyway with the programs I have I am able to save it in tiff, jpg, gif, and png (microsoft picture?). I don't have any of those programs you mentioned. So my question is, do you guys know if one of those types of files would work? Would the print shop be able to convert it? Or is it possible to convert it to pdf with the basic adobe? If not I suspect it would be cheaper to have them just make it from scratch than to buy one of those programs.

A lot of places will print business cards from a high resultion jpeg file. I've done that will all of my cards actually. I build all of my documents at 600 dpi and then just save it as a huge jpg to give to them. If you're using a color other than white that runs to the cards edges or past it, they'll probably want the card to be sized 1/8in larger on all sides. Like i said before, that way when they cut these down to size, everything lines up well.
If you don't have the capability of adjusting your dpi/resolution, I or someone else here may be able to recreate the card again for you. This time at a higher resolution for print.

I'll try the jpeg route then. I'll have to play around with my programs, but I'm sure one of them gave me the option of saving at 600dpi or higher if I remember correctly. The background, and edges are white, except for one edge where I have the front half of a snake coming onto the card, so it would be okay if a little is chopped off in the process. Thanks for the help

OK, I got my card from Christina (THANKS CHRISTINA!), I downloaded Photoshop, resized the card to 3.5 x 2.0. But now I don't know how to print it from Photoshow, how do I set it up to print on the business card paper, 10 to a page? I have DesignPro software that I normally use, but it won't open Photoshop files.
Any ideas? I am so bad at this stuff

Jeanne, so you have the perforated sheets of paper. This is a pain in the butt since photoshop doesn't have any sort of setting to line up to the card to the paper. You're going to have to get out your handy dandy ruler, and figure out the dimensions on the perforated sheet. You'll need to create a new document 8.5x11in at 300dpi or more. Then you'll need to lay guides in photoshop according to your measurements. From there you throw the card in and duplicate the card 9 more times. Line them all up with the guides/measurements. Basically you want the photoshop document to mimic the sheet of paper
After that the printing is really hit or miss. Your measurements could be off, and when the printer actually feeds the paper through its not always straight. It's the biggest pain in the butt to lay them out in photoshop perfectly for printing on those sheets.
If you give me measurements and the card, I can try to help. Like I said, it could be hit or miss. I've done this before and maybe half the cards came out okay, the rest were off. It also took like and hour of testing and tweaking. I wont do it anymore, considering i can get 500-1000 cards for $65-85 professionally printed.
Let me know if you need any help.

not sure how to do it on those programs, my migrographx draw has a businuss card feature that you plug in your paper stock number and it does it all for you.

She may be able to find a premade photoshop or pdf template from the net for the stock. If not, she can at least probably find the dimensions off the net. Didn't think of that.
