I have a printer and would be willing to print them out I just am not very good with photoshop ect.. remember when creating an image to print it has to be much higher resolution than for viewing on a screen.  I even have the cards I'd have to buy a slot puncher for a few $ not a big deal.

So you're saying AsherO's design won't work b/c its too pixelated?

yes I could try it to see how it looks, also what about the other side? leave it blank? add lines to put in your name and address?

May be too difficult to personalize but what about DDF handle and/or status?

If you can personalize it:
Name
Address
Phone number
Email address
(DDF Username? Status?)

I know it's completely last-minute, but I may be interested in giving a short award booking/credit card seminar Sunday sometime around noon in NYC.

If anyone is involved with a tzedoka with a projector and a place to do it then PM me to possibly arrange it as a fundraiser opportunity...

Are we talking about luggage tags? I always thought it's not a good idea to put such details on prominent display while traveling. Am I wrong?

Do you not put that info on your bags when you check them in?

I do, but not so conspicuously. You're way more seasoned then me in this. I'm just asking.


EDIT: I'm also not sure it's a good idea to have our real names connected to our DD usernames... (Is it just me that's paranoid?)

I have luggage tags from airlines on my bags that have my name and address on them.
Never worried too much about it.  Nobody really sees it unless it gets lost-which is the point of them.

Looks like there different opinions on what to put on the tag, but this is really another whole discussion.

I'll definitely take the luggage tags. It's a great DO souvenir in any case :)

Looks good, here's a slightly higher res image, want to try it with that?

who made the banner in the first place back during your site banner contest? I am sure that the "creator" has an adobe illustrator file or similar with much higher resolution than your 36k jpg

That particular banner was made by Laibel Berkowitz designerlaibel.com. (don't ask me who made any of the other ones, I have no idea)

I actually emailed him on Tuesday.  He said that he no longer has the files.

Headed to NYC at 4:30am-can't wait to meet up with everyone!
Drinks at Clubhouse Cafe at 3:30pm and dinner at Le Marais at 4:30pm. 

For the  DDF NYC DO attendees, make a post here and number it, starting from 1, and we'll make a drawing tomorrow using random.org for a couple of small door prizes. 

So the first poster should write that he is #1, and second that he is #2, etc...
