Any chance you can make them slighly bigger than a regular card?
They would really stand out against all of the other cards that will be given out that day.


Nah, we want them to be standard card size.

They will already stand out vs any of the cards I have seen.

Plus, they will be the only cards of Matt Wieters there.

They are free cards used to show off the site. The amount of ******** on here with complaints about any and everything seems to expand daily. This isn't a complaint, just a statement of what I see.

These arnt FREE cards for us.... they are for advertisment for the message board... hoping to draw more traffic to this board. The National is a nice event to really make this place grow.... I agree with all the others.... the FCB logo should be changed.

Who gives a crap who they are for?................ Did you read what the hell I wrote?........... The first sentence? .... .... .... ....

Justin,
Same philosophy towards those that are commenting on the "I like it" side too then?
Is it wrong if I give thumbs up to a design or an idea involving a free card?
I agree that it's just a card but it was put out there so people can give opinions and give feedback before the final product was made.
I don't see a whole lot wrong with some of the constructive criticism and it seems like Mike is actually fine with people being specific with their suggestions/complaints.
Why is someone an a-hole for making recommendations?

nyc3 and nikateen are the ******** to which I refer. If they would drop the agenda and help it's one thing but they won't.

Wow, I'm very impressed. I appreciate the fact razor is willing to team up with you guys and get something like this done. I think it will be great advertising for both parties. Excellent work guys. Sure wish I could make it to the national even more now.

Awesomeness.

No, it is just typical Justin. Act hard behind a computer. All I said was I don't like the design. I don't think it looks good. It looks like I am in the minority, but thats fine.

The point is you continued to talk about how much you don't like the design without offering why you don't like it. Unless you're willing to be a little more constructive with your criticism you're going to continue to look like you're trolling in this thread.

I think you continue to be oversensitive because I am assuming you had a say in the design. I told you why I don't like the design or razor. If you don't like my reasoning, thats fine, but I gave it.

It lacks "visual appeal" is not constructive criticism. I'll continue to believe you're holding a Razor bias against the cards and are doing nothing more than trolling in this thread until you're willing to add something to the thread.

People hate Razor just to hate Razor. They act like Razor is forcing them to buy their products or attempting to enslave the masses.

Or worse.. drive down the prices of their *gasp* investments! OOHNOES!!!!!

I am not a card designer. It isn't my job to come up with a good design, it is the designers. It seems like a lot of people on this site like the design, I don't. I think it looks cheap, which it probably is. They're free so in the end it doesn't really matter, but if I was running this site I would want to "wow" collectors by giving them great looking cards if I could.

No one is asking you to design the cards. We're asking what elements of the card you don't like (besides the logo which is ugly and hard to read). You claim I'm being oversensitive but I honestly want to know what it is that you don't like. Simply saying "it's ugly" doesn't help anybody.

If I ever met you, I'd have no problem telling you that you are an ******* to your face.

The cards do look great. You can't please everyone with a design, if you are the only one who hates it on this forum then I am not too worried about it. You can hate it, that is fine, just don't pretend like you vs everyone else = majority.



:-) scuba had nothing to do with the design though.

Like I said earlier in the thread, I am only 1 person and in the end my like or dislike of the design doesn't really matter, especially considering a lot of people on this site seem to like the design. They're free anyways.

So help wow instead of complaining. If it's not your job and you can't help why say anything?

I guess my biggest beef about the design is that they look like the 2008 cards that tristar gave away at the national which I ended up throwing away. They also remind me of cards team best used to make.
