Throwing my hat in the Customs ring

[jmcraven]

I've dabbled with making some cards in the past, mostly of the local minor league hockey team so my son could use them to get autographs; I only used Windows Publisher. I never got too technical. But after seeing some of the amazing custom work that some of the guys on here create, I wanted to try to do something a little better. I am using Gimp now, and there's been a real learning curve. Below is my first effort. I know, I know, Hambone's an Angel now, but I'm a Rangers fan that can't quite let go...

I will continue to try to get better, but I had pretty much come to the end of the road with my first design. BTW, this card is 3" x 4.5". I wanted something a little bigger for TTM autos, and Ultra makes a 3.5 x 5 toploader that these will ship in nicely.

I welcome any and feedback and suggestions. Thanks.

i like it very much! have you ever thought about changing to a landscape view card onstead of a portrait view card?

Thanks! I do like landscape aspect a lot- I'll see if I can work something up in that format. Thanks for the suggestion.
