TLDR VERSION

Would you like 10 free Business Cards that are Pinny Pal themed?
If yes, send me an avatar picture and words for the back of the card (or choose from below pictures).
I will make a custom template, and pass that to you.
You then follow the steps outlined, which will take about 5 min, and wait to receive your cards in the mail.

Firstly special thanks to @maywest for inspiring me to do this, @fishfishmonkeyhat for creating and supplying the avatars, the creator/s of the Pinny Pals logo, and @aleph0 and @fishfishmonkeyhat again for trying it out and suggesting improvements!

Ok I've been mucking around, and had a bit of fun with some business card designs (I get bored sometimes!)

Of course we probably don't want to get 250 minimum or spend a lot of money. To that end, Moo (us.moo.com) will do a sample pack of 10 cards, with a design of your choosing (albeit with a black line on the bottom of the back with their name on it) for FREE!

If anyone is interested, I can do up some templates for business cards for you (at least 10 free ones anyway).


A few examples of cards already printed by willing Pinny Pal guinea pigs. Thanks for your help!

To make your custom template, I will need a few things though:
  • An avatar of reasonable pixel size. (The larger avatars which are approx 900 x 900 Pixels that fishfishmonkeyhat have done for us work really well.200 x 200 is definitely too small.)
    *In aleph0's case I managed to find a good sized example in google images
  • Your PinnyPal Profile Link.
  • Words you would like on the back.

After receiving these things I'll make up a custom template that works well with Moo. (This may take a little time)

Once you have received your Front and Back Templates from me, you need to follow these steps:


YOU CAN STOP READING NOW IF YOU LIKE UNTIL YOU HAVE YOUR TEMPLATES READY TO GO.
