ok, i will wait 20 years to have the card made...there are TONS of cards out there that show career stats where the career is not over.

Not trying to be a dick, but what cards are these? I've seen cards with season stats, but besides on the back of the card, I can't recall seeing any with career stats featured in the design of the card of an active player. Just wondering.

Didn't Donruss do a whole Stat Line Career parellel that was serial numbered to a career stat? As well as the Moments and Milestones for ARod's HR total, Hoffman's save total, and many different pitchers (Pettite, Maddux, Smoltz, Glavine, Clemens) wins.

Just looking at card design, the Cobb and Bonds are by far the best IMO, and I gave the edge to Cobb because the patch placement cuts into Bonds' photo, which always has bothered me. They are all really cool, though. The Ichiro is unbelievable!

Cobb looks awesome! I would have never thought of using a grunge font but it works nicely here. I also like the blue ink/blue background. Great photo choice as well, If you ever do customs of the other members of the HOF Class of '36 I would use similar designs and make a mini-set.

I really like the overall design/colors of the Bonds. I know the sizes of the cut and patch are different and hard to align but something about the sig/patch/73/762 elements not being modular bothers me. The numbers are a good size, but I would make the text "Single Season HR Record" a bit smaller so it doesn't stick out on either side of the cut. The back is awesome, I like how the ball he is hitting is the center point of the star you created.

The Musial is really awesome! That is my favorite pic of Musial that you used plus the red/white/blue swatch really works with all the colors.. If it was possible I would have tried to include the complete Cardinals logo behind his sig or used a different cut altogether.

Nice looking combo card of the four guys. Great job blending the four photos, that is something I can never get right myself. I like how you kept the front simple and decided to omit things like team names, logos, years etc. Only thing I can suggest is perhaps using a different photo of Pujols where is is looking to the left so that the focus is into the center of the card.

Overall great jobs with the cards, these are far nicer looking that some of the things UD/Topps puts out.
