This is the forum card poll. Vote for your favourite card. I think you can change your vote later by deselecting your first vote and voting for another choice. This can be used like the AV system if your first choice is out of the running. I'm not totally sure this feature works, so apologies if it doesn't. The winning card will be done on a 500 or 1000 print run to hand out to prospective members. Many thanks to Angie for the Artwork. Card ACard BCard CCard DCard ECard FCard GCard HCard ICard JEdit: Since we did the poll, Neil has done some more designs: freemotorhominguk.boards.net/post/21690freemotorhominguk.boards.net/post/21691If you prefer these to any shown in the poll, please post below. These designs are not included in the poll but can be referred to as Neil1 to Neil6 in the order they are shown. (We can't edit the poll now without reposting it)

Lots of support for J. I can't see it being overtaken
We may be able to the poll early and get the cards ready for the Ham Hill and Ribblehead meets?
What do people think?

As I voted for J, it would be foolish of me to disagree with you

I didn't either, but I think it will work out quite well

I like the new batch, particularly the 'graphics' image without the photo background.
I'm still not sure about the initial letters - a quick glance at 'FMUK' can resemble another word...

If you like any of the new batch better, anyone can always deregister their vote in the poll (click on the green tick/option you already have voted for) and register their vote here in the thread for any of Neil1 to Neil6

Had a reply from Vista Print today to say our order has been shipped So I should have 2000 before this weekend in plenty of time for Ham Hill. We'll then send some up with somebody who is also going to Ribblehead. Which could be Rob, Brewkit, Glen, or even me! So the Northern contingent will get their share too

I like card J but as an ex Repro printer I would drop the fine key lines top bottom and left as the finisher will never get them even when they are cut out,Sorry old habits die hard should I leave

We went for J and got 2000 at Vistaprint - they seemed to manage it all OK. Will let you have some at a meet, or you can PM me your snail mail and I'll stick them in the post

I know you've already had them done 'cos we've got one but next time consider getting a price from Goodprint. I find their quality far better then Vistaprint and they often do a 50% off offer to subscribers.

We can certainly give them a try. I wonder if they could do 2000 for £40 though? I just checked at www.goodprint.co.uk/calculator/price and the price for 2000 was £78 before VAT and delivery (I think... not sure) So even with a discount, they would be struggling to beat Vistaprint. The ones from Vistaprint were pretty good considering we went for bargain basement everything. We could have paid for better quality card and printing but for a Free Forum they are very fit for purpose.
