Business card critique

[zmeiaspas]

I made a few simple business card designs for my roommate. His company's main activity is the recycling of old / obsolete computer towers.

He's looking to get some feedback so he posted this thread on a couple more forums and this is what he had to add in his threads:

Please vote on your favorite design, and please do give any criticism to help improve my design in any way. My current favorite subtitle is the one on all the designs: "Specializing in computers." Other possibilities are: "A new home for your old computers" or "Helping keep electronics out of landfills." Of course, this is also open for critique. Thanks!

A:




B:




C:





D:




All help, opinions and critiques are more than welcome.

Cheers!

no green is all the rage these days


top card is A by a wide margin. Very classy.

A is win. Please close this thread now.

Card "A" is probably the most popular design, but then people might think you're into Kawasaki - ya know, with all that green. We don't want that!
P.S. I voted for card "C", understated and classy.

Yeah I gotta say the green on white looks a bit insipid, I know you are prob. looking for a "clean", "green" card but it doesn't come across as solid.
I know it starts mucking up the whole design element but even if you had a black band across the centre of the card about the same height as the vertical green line, or reverse it with blk top and bottom
I do like having a bit of white on the front of a card for scribbling "extra" notes etc

I like A as it stands but also agre with Kazza on the other one after changing the background to black.

The wording "Keeping electronics out of landfills." instead of "Helping"

D. is the best. You dont want your card to get lost in a sea of other cards. I think D. speaks best to your mission due to the built in keyboard. It looks cool, clean, and has a purpose. It looks fresh too, the white w/ "any other bright color look" is very "apple" and in right now.

C - Clean and to the point!

I picked A, a green card will stick out amongst all the white ones, and the type is easy to read, and information easy to glance at.

I picked A :thumbup: big green and bold will stand out from the rest

A. It stands out and is easier to read than the others.

I liked B, I thought using the recycle logo as your "A" was a good idea too.

Thanks a lot for the feedback guys and gals - appreciated!

Cheers!

You're missing a very critical piece of information:

Business Address.

I have an idea where he's at with the 508 area code, but an actual business address gives the person or business a bit more legitamacy.

Specializing in computer is a little vauge as it's such a big area.

even so if you want to stick with it I would say "Specializing in computing".

Also note any qualifcations he has "John Smith - MCP"

also get him a domain name so the buisness has some legitimacy - theres no excuse for that and I wouldn't do buisness with a buiness who had a gmail / hotmail account

voted for A, everything on the card "pops" and is noticible. B, C and D fade in and after a glance I dont even feel like reading whats on it.
