The Rather Difficult Font Game

Friday, May 9th, 2008

I scored 31/34 first try … out of an average 23/34. At the time I entered the Hall of Fame, I was ranked number 29. Not bad at all. I knew more of ‘em then I thought!

Shameless Self Promotion

Sunday, May 4th, 2008

I’ve been meaning to share a little bit of my own recent branding design—beginning with my business card—and I just received the push I needed.

Brian Yerkes, Owner/Creative Director of Brian Joseph Studios, posted a clever blog asking for the Business Cards of Bloggers.

Plus, it will be fun to visit and revisit Brian’s post as the cards start showing up. Great idea, Brian, and thanks to Jacob Cass for spreading the word!

Do you have a blog and a business card? Head over to the site and follow Brian’s rules to participate. If you don’t have a business card but need one designed, give me a shout.

And now, without further introduction, I present the card … (relatively) hot off the press:
