Any suggestions?
For a very long time I’ve also had the idea of getting some business cards printed for the blog. Then whenever I encounter curiosity about my hair in real life, I could hand over a card with the address and go “Start with the Beginners guide to healthier hair”.
Heh.It actually happens more often than you would think!
Usually I’ve been telling people search for “long hair care” which of course works better if your native language isn’t English. It’s funny though; even with all the information you can find, a lot of people haven’t even thought of that you can find a whole lot of knowledge about growing healthy hair online. I swear, 99% of the time people respond with “Oh, I didn’t know I could find that…” Maybe it’s a sign that there is so much junk out there online that people have stopped using the internet for real information?
Of course now that I have my blog and have collected a lot of information in it that I think could be useful to people no matter how well they take care of their hair already, I have a specific place to point them to.
But now it seems that my internet has started reading my mind, because everywhere I go online I swear I see ads for Vistaprint that makes business cards at a very nice price! Huh.
Should I be very, very scared? Are the terminators taking over the internet? Is my little HP laptop equipped with a brain scan chip?
Of course if I were to get some business cards printed there, I’m back at an old issue I have here on the blog: I really need a nice icon or logo!
I have been playing around with putting some of my pictures up as logo but never felt happy with them. Then I drew the girl with the laptop and even though it was a quick 10 minute thing and I took the picture of it with my phone, I still feel it’s the best logo/header yet. Of course it would be better if I somehow could incorporate a bell or a tower in it, but how?
If I order business cards, what information should be printed on them? Naturally the address, but what else? My email? Some sort of slogan? A description?
So, maybe I should spend a little more time on that tonight. Create a different and better version of the girl with the laptop and get the business cards ordered?
I'd suggest Paint Shop Pro. It's pretty good actually, kinda like Photoshop but WAY simpler and no way nearly as heavy. I've used it for years to play with pictures, it works for simple drawings like you would do in Paint, it works as a photo editor and you can also do photo collage things.
ReplyDeleteOh and you can also make business cards with neat fonts and decorate it.
That sounds great! I will check that out for sure :)
