my new card?

[eurotrash]

what you think?

im not sure yet. its 3am it seems kind of boring but i guess boring is good?

I'm liking it a lot. Very clean and stylish. Lol, I have been trying to make a card for weeks now and keep going back to the drawing board.

simple, nice and clean ... great idea ... only problem I see is that the second photo slice from the left has nothing to do with sports

I agree

[AjP]

really like it and agree about second slice, nothing fitting overall.

I agree with the second slice, as well... I was just planning out yesterday that I'm going to end up making some 5 different cards so that each card is a little more focused.. I can give out a Sports/PJ card, a portrait card, a wedding card, etc...

i do believe he's trying to show that he doesn't do just sports

OK...I'll be different here. I think all the photos are good on their own but my suggestions are:

1) Use both sides of the card - they ARE double sided! Put your info on one side and use the FULL other side for photos (gives you more real estate for both!)

2) Select just a couple of photos - and emphasize that. The strips are nice and look great in a large view like this. I think when you size it down to a business card size, they're so small that I don't get a feel for what you are capable of.

3) Consider different cards to emphasize different things. I mean, they're cheap enough - do one for sports, one for "people" (you've got some great stuff from the dancers too - USE it!)

Don't mean to imply that what you've got is not good - it is - just that you can do so much better.

I agree with LL. Having a card with that many pictures on it will be way to busy. Also do what he said about double sided.

well i am trying to show i do more than sports which i do. the kid in the tube is actually a funny candid rather than a "sports" photo even though the goggles throw you off. i dont really like the idea of having a trillion different cards for everything. i want to just have one that i can give to everyone. I kind of like the idea of two sides, but then i dont. im on the fence with that one.

thanks jesus and everyone else!

revised front.

changes: bigger slices, tighter, and changed 2nd photo.

working on back now.

[eurotrash]

here's the front.

[brad]

I like everything but the picture for the front... A) because you alread used that image on the back and B) the backward Nike swoosh screams from the photo at me...

[Abel]

very cool... one thing i like to do with web addys is capitalize each word/name....

www.ToddSpoth.com would be much easier to read at first glance for someone that is not familiar with your name etc...

just a suggestion.

yeah but its better than that.

when its printed youll be able to turn it and itll look like one of the images shines through the card to the other side.

that photo was picked on purpose because you can tell its backwards.
