Ranger-Forums business cards

I see a lot of rangers where i live, so i thought i'd make up some business cards to place on their drivers door. the cards would read:


welcome to Ranger-Forums!

~serving ford Ranger owners~
all models from 1983 +
"get all of your ranger answers here"

Yea I remember seeing this idea about a year ago. I thing the saying could use a little work though, more along the lines of a place for ford ranger enthusiasts.

I can do a photoshop design. All you really need to do is print them out. windows has a printing option to do it business card sized. Than you just cut them out.


You should put your username on there so that they will use you as their reference.

thanks.

as for user names, i've seen members on here put their user name on their trucks underneath the R-F banner. as for user names on the business cards, they ranger owner would also know who was checking out their truck.

I think if we took the graphic off of the back of the t-shirts and put that on the upper half and then had what terrance said on the bottom half that would look good. Or if we had the graphic on the front and the info on the back, that would probably be more expensive though.

I see what your saying, but how many people ever turn a business card over?

You guys need to get permission from Christian. Its his site and his name, I know other issues like this have arose. Just bring it up with him before you go printing.

I have seen stuff like this go bad in the past. Just an fyi, i think its a cool idea to promote more members, but you need permission first. Ranger-Forums is copyrighted to Christian.

Oh of course, do you think he would have a problem with it?

the idea looks good but maybe you should Instead of just sayin "A Premier site for the Ranger Enthusiast" maybe something like "A Premier site for the Ranger and Mazda Enthusiast"...or something like that so that you don't leave the mazda truck owners feelin like there not gonna find anything helpful here for them
