[Pics] Business Card - For The Busy Geek

[Gatt]

Well done @sysman ! when can we download the PSD?
@john - have to agree that the old Skool style is much better - as much of a lover of Win7 I am - the new UI just doesn't have quite the same effect in this instance..

The notepad icon in the top left corner of the original pic points the wrong way.

Not if Notepad were running on XP:

old skool is better. 16bit ftw!

Ubuntu?

Not if Notepad were running on XP:

But what version of notepad is it in the original pic?

Notepad running in 2000 seems to have the notepad icon opening to the left but also looks to have a small black line on it so it looks like it is probably xp running classic desktop?

Win7 with classic theme:

all too new-skool

Pfft - can't believe you lot falling all over yourselves over such an inaccurate depiction. That's clearly Notepad++ colours running in a Notepad window. Completely unrealistic! And you call yourselves geeks.


Seriously, though - that's pretty awesome...

I must admit i agree with sysman the old skool one looks more cooler.

It's the scale, the old school one it to scale and better framed, the 7 version is not. If they were at the same scale the 7 one would look better.

I must admit that the first thing I thought when seeing the initial one was that 'that business card needs to be upgraded'

I can't open .PSD with GIMP

How about a CMD version?

[Gatt]

How about good ol' BASIC?

10 PRINT "Business Card"
20 PRINT ""
30 PRINT "Name: XXXXXXX"
40 PRINT "Title: XXXXXXXX"
50 PRINT "Phone: XXX XXX XXX"
60 PRINT "Email: XXX.XXX@XXXXX.COM"
70 PRINT "Link: http://www.somewhere.com"

(Sorry dont have access to nice flashy apps like Photoshop or GIMP here....)
