Awesome. Get a photo of him so I can make a card and get it signed. By the way, I use the Halls P.O. on Maynardville Pike.

Do you remember a UK baseball player who's first name is Russ? I don't know his last name, but he played (and roomed) with Joe Blanton, and played with John Shelby.

Great work!!

Re: OPINION POLL: Fantastic or Fail #2 Original Design

These are extremely nice! Look like the sell sheets on the Topps Websites!

I would encourage you to alter the placement of the names, and maybe make a little more color in the background on the jersey card.

Overall I think this is amazing material, that Topps, UD and Donruss don't have a clue about. Nice work!

Love the auto/patch. The base autos look like a more vibrant 2000 Bowman.

Well, like all of your other work...... I love them! When I finish the few I am working on and get them printed (by your method) and signed, I'll post them. Thanks again for the advice!

Not to toot your horn but, you should send these to Topps or Upper Deck. They need card designers with imagination.

100% AGREED. I'm not really sure what else there is to say anymore.

Would definately buy!

Very cool, I use that one too when I send stuff because it is right down Emory from where I go to school (Gibbs) and work. He actually lives in a neighborhood off McCloud Rd, if you know where that is. Right behind Halls Elementary.

I love it. I think the set looks great. I think a College set like his is a great idea and would jump all over it.

Re: OPINION POLL: Fantastic or Fail #2 Original Design

Well, this one's doing pretty well. :D Like to have a total of 100 opinions though.
Thanks for the input so far.

I think the darker border ones would be better as the base cards...

But then what about the base cards? If you think the black bordered alumni one of one cards look more appealing than the base cards, that is the whole idea! ;) :D

I think the white border ones would be better suited as the inserts (and maybe a deep maroon instead of white?)... JMO

Those are blue? They look black to me... oh well.

I mean obviously the inline part could not be blue if they were maroon.
