Design my business card for $10

[tlogank]

I would offer more, but I pretty much have all the graphics that I want to use here for you. This will be a 2-sided card. A business card's specs are 2.0in x 3.5in. One the front, I would like to have the picture of me (shrunk, ofcourse), my logo, and the contact information. On the back, I would like to list the services I offer, as well as the contact information again. I have shown you my current business cards below so you know the information I want to put on there, as well as my picture. I welcome any extra creativity you might want to throw in or implement into the design if you feel it would make it better. Also, if someone could come up with a cool-computer-ish background for the card, that would be great, too. I am hoping to get a design sent off this week to be used. Thanks for all your help!

PS: I prefer to pay through PayPal, but if you need it some other method, then I suppose to can try to do that.

Me:

Current Card (the name Computer Helper and Mouse are my logo)

thanks...

Like I said, it is really just a matter of placing what where and resizing it. Everything you need to put in is already there.

tell me if there is anything that needs changing

It looks good what you have done...question though...

Is there a way you could take the main logo (Computer Helper-Making Your PC Friendly) and make it larger above my head?

Also, on the back of the card - is there perhaps some way we can make it look less empty on the right side, like maybe somehow even the left and right up...perhaps split it 5 and 5, or something...I don't know. Just throwing ideas out, but the front looks great, other than wanting to have the logo a little larger and higher up.

i can make your logo bigger but the back of the card i tried to put them side by side but there is so much information there and the only way they fitted was a REALLY small font size

Edit: Here is the front bigger

Edit 2: Instead of changing the total size i quished it sideways but im not sure if you will like it

Couple more things...

Perhaps on the front, could we put toward the bottom "(Services listed on back)" so that they will know for sure to turn the card over? I, myself do not typically look @ both sides of a card, but if this will look tacky, then we could avoid it, but I thought that it would be sure to draw their attention to both sides of the card.

Also, here is the original logo without my name in it if you want to use to to make the logo bigger above my head:

In Adobe Illustrator

In JPEG format (you have to do a right-click, and Save As on the link)

[tlogank]

You are getting there, I will get with you on the back of the card in a few...

But on the front, I don't consider my name to be a part of the logo...so if you want, you can move my name out beside my face more, and leave the logo up top a little bigger. But it is coming along great...thanks!

those are the best so far, but can we still include my name next to my face? Thanks!

Ok, I definetely like it with the "services listed on back"

Now, can we take my name and move it down a little and to the left of my face, more centered with my face...

Also, on the back, I am still getting a few other opinions, but can we change the "Virus Detection and Removal" to "Virus & Spyware Removal"?

EDIT: Can we move my head up a little bit how you had it on the original job so that my chin is not cut off?

Ok, I think we are almost there...

Now, is there anyway my head might be a little smaller on the front so that you can see a little bit of my neck. I like it on the left, but I feel like it is cut off just a little too close to my chin.

Also, can we make the "Services Listed on the Back" font smaller, like almost as if it were a small footnote?

The back I think is pretty much solid and ready to go...it's just a little bit on the front. Btw, I am getting feedback from about 10 people on what I should do, so that is why I am being kind of particular.

You're the man, just make the "Services Listed on Back" a little smaller still. The head looks 100% better.

Ok, I really really like this one...and everyone else that I have shown it to agrees as well. I am going to give it a couple of hours to get a few more opinions, then decided this evening...but judging by the fact that no one else has put in any effort, you will probably get the money. I will be back on between 9-10PM EST to see if there were any other attempts, but yours will be hard to top. Thanks!

PS: Did you do these in Adobe PS to where I can get the files if I choose yours? Thanks!

Ah, I got bored half way through.

I prefer Kaneso's. I say, go with that.. don't wait.

[fuBar.]

It's better off, if your face is animated. A more vector/sketch affect.

y0sh, it look's good though...thanks for the effort...

Kaneso...one last request. Is there anyway you might be able to show my whole head like y0sh did my pic with a little shoulder's in it? I understand that you might have to resize the logo, but I am just interested in seeing how/if you could do it. I like how you can see my whole head, but if you cannot do that, I understand. Either way, it looks like you will be the winner...let me know if you can give it a try...thanks!
