Business cards

I made up some simple cards to hand out at renfaires and other such events if we run into other knights. Check this out:

OK, what I can do is print up a couple more sheets and mail you some. I'd say hand them out to anyone with a nice armor kit.

I keep a metal business-card holder in one of my pouches, and almost never remember that I have cards in it... but they've been personal cards until I made these up. Handing out info for the forum would be useful. :)

I've nearly used up the cards I've been carrying, so I'll print some more. Any folks want some cards to hand out?

I gave one to Sir Barchan last weekend (one of the jousters, also a founding member of Markland, etc). I don't know if he'll ever pop in and take a peek though :)

I shall spread the word of this sight to those I encounter at PaRF, if you would not mind, I would certainly hand out cards to those I encounter there.

Sorry, I've been busy with other things and have neglegted checking in here.  I would certainly still distribute some, should you wish to send me any.  I think I may have sent you address once, but I you still need it let me know and I'll get it to you.

If anyone wants to print their own business cards, I've placed some PNG files here:

I have a set for the forum, and a set for the Order. They're made to fit the standard printer-sheet business cards you can buy, at 300 pixels per inch.

I really like the Order ones...I mean the MC ones are nice too, but the Order ones, nicely done with imagery on both, the colors of the Order really pop.

Great! I should print out a few for my travels. Maybe if I meet Barchon of Dinkleberry again I'll give him one. I would love to help spread the word for the for forum, because it is a very public thing. But how do we know who to give the Order card to? Should I give it to the person along with the MC card? I mean, people some who join the forum usually will apply for the Order after being on the forum for awhile. So wouldn't handing out Order cards cause people to apply for the Order before spending time on the forum? I mean, I could give the Order cards to those with nice kits after talking to them for a bit if deemed worthy of a man who seeks chivalry.

Yes, it's probably best to start with the Modern Chivalry cards. In the past I've usually started with those, and only used an Order card if they wanted to know more about the Order specifically.
