Sorry Neil, I gave you incorrect info. I had my cards printed at VistaPrint.com, not OvernightPrints. This is the second batch of card I had them print. The first had a grayscale image, and they messed up the colors. What should have been shades of gray came out with a pink'ish cast. I told them about it and they re-printed the order and shipped it overnight for free. Then I decided I wanted a color card, so I ordered another batch with a new design. That's the one I posted earlier. They got the colors right the first time with that card. They gave me the firsttimer's discount on both orders because I called and asked them why my second order cost more than the first one. :D
To get my image ready for printing, I downloaded their business card template for Photoshop, then edited until I had the card looking right. Make sure your image is in CMYK mode.

moo.com allows you to have a different photo on the back of each card - should be fairly easy - just text on front, and a collection of photos for the back - I don't know how long they take to delivery. They also have 1/2 cards, which gives you a bit unusual size...

I use MOO cards, which allow me to upload many different card front designs/images in a single order. I can cover some different targets in a single order, plus I hand people a few, ask them to choose the one(s) they like best: it is like a mini portfolio showing on the spot |

Although I have not printed this out yet because I am still in the process of making the back side of it with my information I am pleased with the look of the one I have here. :) |

I've just created these which are my first attempt and ordered 100 .... I tried moo who quoted a 2 week delivery time. tried vistaprint who, after going through everything including putting my credit card in, added £10 for postage for 100 cards and then added 20% VAT!!! I stopped and cancelled the order, it really annoys me when people hide what the actual price is. Eventually went with beanprint who have a next day delivery for free, and all prices quoted were what it actually cost at the end |
