Calling cards
« on: 01 January 2011, 02:15:13 am »
There are some old ones here: http://foc-u.co.uk/new/download.php, but how about some updated ones for the FZ6, 1 and 8??? If you're artistic or just a dab hand with PSP then maybe your creation will be seen on thousands and thousands of random Fazers around the world :)

Post below if you're going to have a go and we'll upload the best efforts :thumbup

Still needed! Would be best if incorporating the new logo :)

they were just some vistaprint ones.
fairly basic ones with the old logo across the top and some txt. and then just plain txt on the back
did on an offer that worked out as about £11 delivered for 1000 cards
can do slightly cheaper if you catch the offers right but i wanted the logo and txt on back, both you pay extra for.

Nice. How did you get them to do the logo all the way across? All the formats I saw had just a smallish box for one.

cant remember the way i did it, but i know i had to pay extra to do it as all the pre made set ups wouldnt allow it. also i couldnt get it right up to the edges as it kept saying it wouldnt print. so theres a gap around the logo.

but once started i could just click the edge and stretch it and drag it where ever i wanted.

shouldn't we also mention that the site is/will be available via Facebook and Tapatalk?

What would the wording be for facebook? "Facebook app available"? "foc-u.co.uk or facebook app"?

I'm not up with facebook so advice welcome.

And tapatalk - isn't that simply a format for smart phones?

dunno, I'm not a FB expert so cant help, and have only just found tapatalk, but yes, TT (?) does give a very easy to use format for smartphones if the forum is set up for it - which Andy seems to have done, ...prolly just jinxed that :lol

We're still considering whether to use this or something else so don't buy it yet :)
