Design a BRL-CAD business card #7BRL-CAD
Status: ClosedTime to complete: 72 hrs Mentors: HarmanpreetTags: design, graphics, 2D, 3D, business card

Design a business card for BRL-CAD. These will be cards that community members who got selected in GSOC or in GCI or even for core contributors can give out to others at conferences, meetings, interviews, etc. The design will get filled in with personal information like name, title, phone number, email, maybe a mailing address too.

Submit a one-sided or two-sided design that can be filled in with personal information and sent to a business card printer (or even printed at home).

Designing of BRL-CAD membership cards can be done in LaTeX, GIMP, Photoshop or any other editing software. Please submit your raw working files (e.g., a PSD or XCF with layers) as well as a "preview" example png.

Search the web or other GCI tasks for inspiration, but make sure you only incorporate artwork that we'd have the ability to redistribute without any restriction (look for CC-BY or BSD/MIT license or public domain content), or keep it simple and fully design the card yourself.

Please DO use any of our formal (the three rings) or informal (the moose antlers) logos, include a link to our website in your design, and be sure to put a "dash" in BRL-CAD. Please do NOT create a military-looking theme, use our old eagle logo, or simply copy someone else's design.

Be awesome, be creative, be inspired, be original. ;)

The work on this task is ready to be reviewed.

Anita Leungon December 20 2013 20:19 UTCHope you don't mind

I gave some gust and made six different designs. Provided png files for you to preview each one, and all of the designs included in layers in the ai file. I also made sure the cards have "cushion" margins, and everything in the adobe illustrator file is already outlined to prevent font issues when printing them out. 

Sean on December 21 2013 11:01 UTClooks good

Other than the nasty color on card2, these are nice.  Thank you very much for all your effort thinking up interesting designs (back and front).

I just realized you guys might want the ai file before it was outlined to edit the words. You can download it here at dropbox:

And the font, League Gothic, I used:

If you do want to use it to print though, make sure you click from the menu Type Create Outlines.
