original message:

Are these cards cheesy? I need to order more, and I'm changing up the membership packages too. Got something else real sweet on the way to add to the packages, gonna keep it a secret for now though :headbang::headbang:




What do you think?

I'm thinking I might take out 'Buy & Sell parts locally'. That's kind of implied in the forum, and there's kind of a lot on the front

Ok here is my take.


  1. yes, get rid of the buy sell mumbo jumbo
  2. change "your local mustang club" ----> "The Official Club of New York State"
Those are all I see for now. The reason I say #2, is because it lets people know that it isn't just a local group, it is the whole state.

Just thinking out loud, sort of. You know what I mean dummy!

Overall I like the design of the card.

If it was my card i would change:
Bump up the NYM logo by 10-15% if you can squeeze it in there.
Remove 'etc.' from top line.
Change line to "Discounts at local shops & online stores" (which in turn might prevent increasing size of logo)
Move Membership Free line to second line between local cruises/discount lines.

But hey, if that card landed under my wiper as-is I would go check it out. Just giving my 2c to help the cause :)

I would make the logo larger, also center the text between the top and bottom info. I would also channge the font to something cleaner like a times new roman, much easier to read. FYI who do yo use to print cards?? I have a couple companies that will print 1000 full color front to back for under $100 if you need them

To add, I'd dump the bullets too. It's only 5 lines and the bullets that tiny will look more like a printer error than intentional. Reduce the card size to the actual size on your screen and if you still think you can read it well, it's the right size.

Actually just saw the updated card, maybe make bullets bigger since there is room.

I just noticed the other graphic is gone. I kinda liked it too but realize your running out of room. Another technique is to take the bottom 1/4" or so of the card and make a colored band across the bottom. The light blue your using for the NY state icon would work and pop well. Then put your web name over it in a thick chunky block lettering so it stands out. If you want when I get back from the bank i'll post up an example of what I mean.

Center the text to match up evenly with th elogo, then center the website address. I don't mind the bullets, just make them bigger. Still hate the font. IMHO
