cards arrive

The business cards I spoke about in a previous post have arrived.  Actually they arrived a couple of weeks ago, just after I had posted about the design we were going to use for them.  However, I never had the time to sit down and write about them in detail.  The design is as you can see on the left.  I would recommend clicking on the link and taking a look at them in more detail.  James did a magnificent job on the design, which is very effective at the same time as being uncluttered and easy on the eye. I can’t recommend James’s company enough if you’re looking for some design or web work.

The cards were printed by OvernightPrints.de who also have a presence in a bunch of European countries and the US.  Their rates are very reasonable and the quality is better than I had expected for the cost.  I think I mentioned it before, but I’m going to re-work the design of this site soon to include the new logo.  In addition to that, I’ll be paring back the CSS to make it lighter.  The style sheet alone weighs in at 30Kb for this site, and it isn’t totally compatible with all browsers.  It works, but some sites show it slightly mangled at the top.  So, its time to pare it back and throw out a load of that shit that has been hanging around for a long time.
