Business cards

[jeremy860]

Anybody ever make any? What is the best software for them? I am planning on experimenting with them lol. just not sure what software I should use.

You can actually draft them up in Adobe illustator or photoshop. The best place to get them made is actually FedEx Kinkos. Just google around and find the best size to make them in adobe. Also, sync up with Kinko's to find what format they need it in.

I've printed color ones in any custom order (50 cards - 500 - 5000 cards) fairly cheap like $20-$40 and you get them within 24 hours. High quality gloss etc. Hope that helps. :)

I used to be an MaryKay rep, and I used VistaPrint (http://www.vistaprint.com/vp/ns/default.aspx?GP=3%2F9%2F2007+1%3A28%3A16+PM) You can get free versions that have a small 'Vista Print' logo on the back, or you can pay a small fee, and get whatever you want on the back.

I always loved their quality, as well. Very fast shipping - too. I think the most I waited was 6 days. That was receieving at my house, from time of my order. :)

Vistaprint is good as well. However if it's a company it's a bit tacky. Just my IMHO. So if it's personal (as it seems this is) then I'd go with vistaprint. However your limited to their templates (I think). Let us know!

Mrbuy; No, you don't have to use their templates. You have the option of creating your own template, or uploading your own logos, etc. :)

I have used MS publisher in the past with great success. I just buy the thicker paper and cut them with a large straight blade. It's the less expensive solution.

My experiences with Kinkos in the past have never been good, so if you go that route, you might consider OfficeMax or elsewhere.

Can't you just make them yourself in Photoshop, there's a "business card" option there.
Then print it out on card, get one of them straight-line card cutter things :P
That's how we do it.
But there's a business card PRINTERS down the road from me so you can just design it then email it to them then they do the printing and cutting to make it more neat and proffessional! :biggrin:

I've made some with PrintMaster (CD)

It gives you a template and you can choose the size etc.. it also has some fabulous clipart on it.
