Figured I'd finally get some cards printed with my website / flickr / email on them cos I'm always asked for my website while I'm out 'n about...

Anyone got any recommendations for online business card printing companies?



Thanks all smile

I had some done by Moo and was very pleased with them... quality print on a decent matt laminated stock and you can get free sample cards printed first and choose to have a different photo on the back of each card if you want.

Moo for me too, the Vistaprint ones I had went in the bin the day I got them. Colour was off, they said it was me, I said it was them...I checked the file I sent and it was in the right colourspace, I'd set the dpi to their preferences, they were hard to deal with

Moo were a breath of fresh air, was able to construct my own card or use their template, pricing was good, delivered within 3 days I think

Goodprint are excellent (I work for them wink ) owned by another PHer too. Thicker board than Moo, similar price.

Do I read it right that you're printing at 600dpi too?

Another vote for Goodprint here. Just had a load printed and very happy with the quality.

I'll also second that vista print are a pile of sh!te. Rubbish designs and quality sucks

Moo are pretty decent. Just had a batch of their 'Luxe' ones done and they're ace, though their normal ones are certainly a lot higher quality than I expected for the price smile

I was fancying some of the Luxe ones when my current ones run out.

Wasn't there a PHer discount, seem to recall using a few years ago? If it was they were very good quality double sided, might suit you flatplane perhaps cars oneside and a trademark grass shot for arty side?

Many thanks for the opinions and tips smile



'Nother quick revision:

Took the point about the lack of colour, but fancied keeping the front B&W but add colour to the back...





Any thoughts?


Cheers!
