Spurred on by a recent blog post by my friend, Scott Bacon, I decided to redesign my business card. I’ll send them off to print in the near term. To date, I’ve printed my cards at home using the flimsy business card paper stock that you buy in stores. They felt cheap, but otherwise looked good. The other problem was that I was always out of them. It should be easier to have a steady supply now. This was the first image that came to mind, not only because it’s my current favorite, but because it’s a clean background design that wouldn’t compete with the text. Thankfully, its lines cooperated. My next choice was this one, but I couldn’t place the text in a well-designed layout. I should probably redesign my site next and give it a facelift, but that seems like an overwhelming job for my complete lack of skills.

Looks great!! The abstract is cool. I especially like the bold MyColorado.org text. It should stand out nicely (I’ll go bolder with the main title on my next card order).
