Re: OPINION POLL: Fail or Fantastic? Original Design

I'm counting "eh, it's ok" as fail. When I see a card and say, "eh, it's ok" chances are I won't buy them..... just look for singles.

:?: Um, no way are these a failure. Maybe your poll shouldn't have had "fail" in it... maybe "not my cup of tea" ;)

Let me ask you, how do you feel about the design? If you like it, then there ya go.

"eh,its ok" could mean I really like them,not fantastic but they look good.Since they look really good isnt an option someone may choose eh,its ok.

Re: OPINION POLL: Fail or Fantastic? Original Design

Thank you for the bolster man. :)

I like the design, but that's not what really matters to me... what matters most to me is that it appeals to other collectors.

You're right though! Screw the haters! :twisted: ;)

Need about 100 votes. :)

I have an idea... on the top line of the white oval, put the red baseball stitching lines to go along with the overall baseball shape of the player photo.
And change the backround, it blends in to the wood look on the cards and looks strange.

Re: OPINION POLL: Fail or Fantastic? Original Design

I put fantastic. It is a little colorful for my tastes and the fonts also add to it looking a little kid-like. With some small tweaks it could be even better.

That's one of the first things I ever tried to do. You may be right though... see subpop77's signature and you'll see my love for using threads. :D Can't use it everytime I do something though.

Re: OPINION POLL: Fail or Fantastic? Original Design

The amount of talent it took to make those is immense.

I'm VERY impressed with the quality of work that you have put into that 'sell sheet'.

That said, it looks very Bowman's Best-esque. (That is, if I saw the sell sheet without any branding, I'd say to myself 'Oh, a new Bowman's Best set came out.')

I can't say that I either like or dislike the card design, I guess I'm indifferent. But like I said, I'm very impressed with the quality of work that went into your sell sheet.

Cool design, just kind of reminds me of like a Nabisco card, or cards inserted in a bag of chips. Auto and GU are pretty cool though.

Well, if they're going into bags of chips, it better be some dang good chips, Grippo's, Snyders of Berlin, Utz ...or Uncle Ray's BBQ.... something like that. :lol:

Nice work Ron! You sure have improved your skills. You should post some of your older designs.
