    Default Business Cards - can you guys give your opinion on mine?

    Hey, just a really quick one.

    Gonna get some new cards done. Always loved the really simple design.. it's always made me want to visit their site and give the card out to other people..

    But what do you think? should there be some more info on there?

    FRONT


    BACK


    EDIT: Fuck I apologise for the images being so big! At least you can see them...

    hey

    Really like the design, only thing I would say is that it doesn't actually say what you do on it. While the club manager or promoter or whatever will remember who you are when you hand him it, once he files it away with the 10's or 100's of others he has and then is looking back through 6 months or a year later he may be a little more cloudy on who you are and what styles/genres you play etc.

    I think you could probably leave out the "myspace/email/tel" line and put instead here maybe a tagline of some sort to say your a DJ and what styles you play. How exactly you wanna word that is up to you.

    But yeah overall like the design, nice and original.

    I'd agree with Kev, the simplicity may be a draw back, definitely add styles you play (the tag line is a good idea).

    Otherwise, the design is great. Very unique logo.

    I like the idea of ur business card, but I would ditch the myspace thing. I would suggest to make a email [djname]@gmail.com it looks cleaner.

    If you want to use myspace as ur main site, use the myspace logo and put ur djname after. For example mine is myspace logo/djjesc

    @V-hoff - bad times man! I couldn't actually work out how to upload photos.. but then again I'm a total spaz when it comes to finding things like that!

    @everyone - cheers for the feedback. I never really thought of it like that actually. I got the idea from a band called twister which just had 'T' and 'twister' on the front and 2 mobile numbers + the myspace on the back. Kept it in my wallet for a coupe of years and always thought it was awesome.

    So you reckon something like "Controllerist.Electro.Dubstep." would do the trick?

    or maybe mimicking a standard business card - like "Head Controllerist, Electro/Dubstep Division" - or maybe not..

    I was thinking more in terms of promoting with fans, and people having it in their wallets to show people etc - but i guess they should serve a far more practical purpose too!

    If you like those suggestions, i'll mock another up and see what you think

    The logo is really nice. But yeah put some info (DJ, styles, etc) on what you do is a plus.

    Also I would give more space around the logo by making it smaller, and maybe make the text on the back smaller. I can't know how big the font is, but anything bigger than 12pts is for your grandpa.

    oh and @JesC myspace is crap, but it's a good hub for other webspace, and they have the simplest URLs. What else would you suggest as an alternative location?

    I use facebook alot - would that be appropriate to put facebook.com/djbelch - which is my personal homepage?

    I might start gearing it towards DJing a bit more..

    oh just remembered - Chris Mercer (Rusko) has "Dubplate Specialist" as his job occupation all over the place.. that's kinda quirky.. along the lines of what might work?
