I got one template from someone. I think DocHudson put it together. I am now thinking that it was not a good design as everybody asks me to explain the address to them.
This is the one with the big X and marks, the, scot, .com on seperate lines on the right. For the non-technical literate it is confusing.
Come up with another GOOD LOOKING and functional one and I will use it.

I have some stuff I played around with a while back for stickers. I'll see if I can dig it up and post it.
I've also thought about business cards. I made some up for CelticRadio to pass out at events...I'll play around with XMarks, too. I have nothing better to do once I get home from work later on. 
Hank, do you have the logo above (the Saltire and Marksthescot.com) available without the gray area around it? If I try to save that image, it's got a gray box around it.

I looked at using that logo, too, but I'm afraid that someone who was not familiar with the site would not realize the Saltire was an "X" and would just type "marksthescot.com."
It's easy enough to change that background color, if you decide to use that logo.

I pulled that text off of the Avery template (2" x 3˝" x 10) I already have made up, but I can't do attachments here. Do you have an email address I can send it to?

This is a very good idea! I will try to come up with something later today!

Oops , I just realized, I included "picture gallery" on the card. Oh well. I assume we WILL have one eventually?
....besides, I already printed up 50 cards.

I can see it now, when someone asks you what you do, you can pull out the card and watch their face. Love the idea!

I didnt try it myself, but since it's a GIF I'd imagine the gray box around it is the transparency part of the image. You'd need to select the gray and fill it to whatever color your background was, or, better yet, just paste it into your document and the transparency should 'go away' and be transparent.

I think the image actually has a grey background, rather than transparent.

Here's my take, just a little something I slapped together...
Face of Xmarksthescot.com business card (3.75 x 2.25 inches):

Back of Xmarksthescot.com business card:

Enlarged face of Xmarksthescot.com business card (a bit blurry):

Enlarged back of Xmarksthescot.com business card:

The card is basic, no frills and 'straight to the point' (appropriate for the majority of business cards). As you can see on the back, I edited the brief 'disclaimer' that appears on the home page for readability.
Admin: Feel free to steal this...that's why its here.
My thanks to the ever-creative Iolaus for inspiring the design.
