When you say “Can’t see the new one” – do you mean you literally can’t see it, or, you don’t like it? Unfortunately, it’s white on white background, so you have to kinda use your imagination to see the outline of the card. |

Both cards are good looking. Print is too small on the new card for my old eyes. My only other comment is a business card has never generated a sales lead for me. -- DaveH - Boise, Idaho - “How hard can it be? It's only wood!” |

Love the saying ” give your heirs something to fight about” Thats perfect. Only thing I would change is the size of the font on your contact info, I would make a little larger otherwise my vote is for the new one. -- AzChiefFan "Measure Once, Curse Twice" |

I agree about the font. Although the resoulution on a monitor is only 72 dpi, and the printed card would be 300 dpi – about 4X sharper. Still, I think it could be a bit bigger. I don’t really intend to make a sale on a business card; it’s just a business necessity, a standard. However, I think a good looking card does say something positive about your business. |

I’m not a graphic designer, but you shoud start at the top left and run your message to the lower right. so at eth very least, I would put your name and contact info on the other side at the bottom. Get rid of three the four corners and move a big one to the top left or design a logo to go there. -- Debt is nothing more than the 21st Century's form of slavery. |

OOps, forgot, with your name, email and phone in the lower right as primary contact, put your adress in the lower left. -- Debt is nothing more than the 21st Century's form of slavery. |

The newer card has a warmer feeling to me. I would make the Font darker and larger if possible. -- Whether You Think You Can or You Think You Can't, YOU ARE RIGHT!!! |
