Well, my dear RAINERS! I need your help. I have two business card layouts to choose from on my and I would like to see what you all think of my two different pictures to choose from~ Actually, the picture and how it is set up is the difference. Which do you all like best? I kind of know which one I like best, but I thought I would get a little feedback for FUN~ Curious to know what you all think.....

EXHIBIT "A"

EXHIBIT "B"

THERE ARE A FEW MISTAKES THAT THEY ARE CORRECTING... SUCH AS MY 800# IS ACTUALLY #888 AND I need to decid which of the two settings I would prefer.... and I want the font italicized.  And on the backside they forgot my "is" in my quote... which reads the following:

"Success is often achieved by those who don't know that failure is inevitable" CoCo Chanel~

So, which one is your favorite for me? I wanted the other pic to pop out on the card, but the photo was taken with the frame cutting my arm off and there would be a line on the card. NOT GOOD! But then I like the other pic a whole lot better.............AGH! HELP! Please..........

I HAVE A GREAT BUSINESS CARD COMPANY AND THEY ARE NOT FROM CALIFORNIA, BUT ARE COMPLETELY AMAZING... THEY SEND A PROOF RATHER QUICKLY.... LET ME KNOW IF YOU WANT THAT WEBSITE...

THANK YOU FOR HELPING.... ;)

Very nice.  I love the water.  I would go for the 2nd one as it looks more integrated, but they are both nice.

I prefer EXHIBIT "B" as well. IMO the cropped photo looks much more professional. The border on the first one makes the business card seem dated.

I like B, but I'd have them fine-tune the line around your shoulder where it's cropped (am really picky about photoshop though).

Hi Lauren -  I like B a lot better.  Larger photo of you and it looks like you are actually on the beach.

I like the 'B' better, Lauren.  But both are rally good and will be a great addition to your branding.

My vote is for "B" but they are both very nice.  B just looks a little more upscale in my opinion.

Lauren, I really think your "B" card is your A List business card!  I do think that both seem crowded with all the numbers on the left side.

What phone number is on your signs?  Your cell or the office phone number?  You might want to consider having your cell phone as the feature number or even eliminate the office number.  Seems a little congested with all the information on both cards.  Perhaps you can make the final line of the office address in a smaller font?  Good luck with this, Lauren!

I'm on the "B" side Lauren.  It looks more natural (like you are right they at the water.

Both cards caught my eye Lauren, but of the two, Exhibit B would be my choice.

I liked the feel of the picture better in B. I agree with some of the earlier comments as well.

Keep us posted on your final choice!

I vote for Exhibit B...it look more professional.  I agree that the numbers seem to be crowded, perhaps some of it be moved to the back of the card.

Well I like Picture A, but I like the layout of card B.  So how about that  :)

Lauren, Ideally I’d like to see Exhibit A with the photo lined up against the edge of the card. You can’t go wrong with either one of them. The card with the better look and feel for me is Exhibit B. I like the photo in Exhibit A the best as well.

Lauren.. Exhibit B all the way... It makes you look like your on the beach instead of a picture inside a picture.. But both look great!

I think that B looks better, you look wonderful there and it doesn't look just like any business card.

Hello Lauren and both cards are wonderful but I am going with B because the photo blends in better with the rest of the card and colors ... "Wonderful looking card" and your post has been featured at one of my favorite groups at AR ...

OK, You expect a man to look at your photo and think intelligently? I like the lay-out of B and the photo of A because it's a better smile.
