Hey, Gang!
While preparing for the NAMM Show (see related link), I decided to update my business cards and I'm interested in whatever business card layouts you folks use (if at all). Why not show 'em off, here?
 
Here's mine.

Wow, Rusty! That's beautiful, especially with your spectacular bass front and center. And thanks. The font I used is called Space Age.

Sam - that is a great picture of you and your bass.
Rusty - that is a real smart idea to include the equipment that you have. I should get some cards made up like that, its a great way to promote yourself for any and all gigs!

Thanks Pauldo! Glad you like it! I just downloaded the logos from the Internet & made the card in Photoshop.

Nice quote.
Luther used to play around the Milwaukee area alot - and he did exactly as the quote said - his shows were epic!
 
RIP- L.A.

Great cards Harry and Jazzyvee. Thanks, Pauldo. Rusty, did you find logos with already transparent backgrounds or did you have to render the backgrounds transparent in PS?
 
For what it's worth, I create cards in Avery DesignPro (a free download) and print them myself. And there's no doubt in my mind that QR codes are the thing of the future. Several biz cards I picked up at NAMM had them and I usually got comments on mine, which link to sound clips on Fandalism.
