I also like the minimalist approach, with just \"Are you dreaming?\" and then the url. I think it makes it more mysterious, more intriguing.

pretty much everything she said. I wonder why i didnt notice it earlier. Anyway the black and white on each side is nice. for some reason it appeals to me more. more classy and sleek/smooth.

I can't decide if a white on black or black on white is better....
Is it possible to do black on white, on one side, and white on black on the other? Even more intriguing....

It would be, but I don't think seeker wants that for his cards since it'd be more expensive. Personally, if I get some, I'd look into something like that but with the jumbled writing I did on the white side and the regular on the black.

or just do both?

What about something like this?

Hmm... not bad ... something feels like it could be better there, but I like the general idea

What do you mean 'both'? I mean doing black and white on the same card, but black on the back, and white on the front.
Lome's idea should work too - better possibly

Going to get them printed at lunch today. I'll let you know when they arrive.

I decided on the simple black text on white background this time. Maybe when I have more money, I'll spring for something nicer.

I'll probably include my e-mail address as well in one of the lower corners.

Cool - are you gonna scan them for us?

YAY, just picked them up. Already gave one out. Looks like I am going to have to add another option to the "How did you find this place" topic.

woo, exciting stuff! now head to the nearest university/college and pass them out! (i'd uh, like there to be a few more people my age around here. )

get a picture of it to show us seeker!

OK, I'll post one this weekend. Gave out about 5 at work, mailed 50 or so to Montana and even left one at Wal-Mart tonight

how do you mail things to a state?

*sneaks in*

He mailed them to me. I go to the U of MT so I figured I'd try and hand some out there or when I go back home. There are some interesting ppl here in Missoula, so I'm sure it's prime ground for ppl that might be interested in Lucid Dreaming.

omgyay

Thats the card?!? i guess. lol, aren't cards supposed to attract people? I think you should make a poster thingy, like a ad.. and then post them around at stores or places... something to attract people to come and join..... ?!?

I would have preferred a better font, but I think its just fine the way it is
It has some intrigue, with the empty card, with just that

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO i get it, maybe... lol, does the emptiness of the card represent the unknowns and unlimits of the mind and dreaming? lol

yay!

I still think it should have been black with white writing.

Maybe next time. With my home construction and Christmas around the corner, I didn't want to spend a lot of money.

I took a pocketful to the mall this afternoon. Left some scattered around. I did go into the book store though and stick a bunch of them between the books in the dreams section.

That's a good idea, putting them between dreaming books. Did you place any inside the front covers? That could be more successful, as cards between books might get smashed before they're seen.

hmm yeah. I think they'd look better with a different font. BUT, I love the concept, it's simplicity and it's really intriguing all mysterious and simple like that. good job seeker :D
