Spunky.Fresh.Designs 11 Posted August 19, 2014 So not only am I start on my own endeavors...my boyfriend is too. So I've been working on his card. Just wondering what you guys think before it goes to print Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spunky.Fresh.Designs 11 Posted August 19, 2014 woah! Should have changed that to rgb before printing. oops. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spunky.Fresh.Designs 11 Posted August 19, 2014 Both sides of the business name bleed off the card Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
101LEDs 100 Posted August 19, 2014 If it was mine... Capitalize Second line, change boat to Watercraft. Boat/PWC design in lower left corner, Phone number should be larger and standout more. And if possible a more professional sounding email. Gmail and Yahoo scream here today, gone tomorrow. Just what I would change, it took us 2 months and 3 orders to get a good layout/design. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spunky.Fresh.Designs 11 Posted August 19, 2014 watercraft isn't a term used in yachting though. good idea on the caps I'll give that a shot. When he's ready to move into me building a website for him we'll give him a more professional email unless you have some email companies that are better suited? thanks for the input Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
101LEDs 100 Posted August 19, 2014 Ok, I did not think yacht at all from looking at the card. Boat made me think of any vessel under 39' in length and vinyl made me think bimini or convertible top and seating. Design a logo for the corner that fits in a nautical flag shape, that would catch peoples attention. For email, the best is your site name. Some places let you access the mailboxes once you buy the domain and don't require hosting and a working site to use them. We use Ipage for all of that, never had a problem ever. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FrznFire07 217 Posted August 19, 2014 Yea I'm going to have to disagree with 101Led, I like the design, it's definitely a more modern look, the name of your business is what catches your eye. I personally like lowercase text, the only thing I would change is the colors. I saw you mentioned you should've uploaded in RGB so maybe that's all I'm seeing, but the colors are way too "neon" 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slice&dice 2,450 Posted August 19, 2014 Yeah, a nautical logo would be nice. That tag-line is somewhat 'blotchy' (it's the IMPACT font that does that, and the all-lower-Case type) I can imagine it will be hard to read on a smaller scale of the card. Get rid of Impact for that descriptive text. Orange and blue? Are you a Gainesville fan? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spunky.Fresh.Designs 11 Posted August 19, 2014 The colors are actually aqua and a toned down orange. I printed actual size and all fonts are readable. here's t he back. the logos are in the bottom right corner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
