Something to Moo about
I usually don’t post stuff like this, but I love this company and have sung its praises many times over the past two years. I’ve ordered three sets of business cards from them, and I did research paper and presentation on them when I was studying ecommerce.
You’ve probably heard of them, but maybe not. They’re Moo, and they produce amazing customized business cards. You can create an account and do all your designing right on the site. You can even upload photos so all the cards are different. I uploaded some of my Instagram shots for one batch, and they’re really cool-looking.
If you’re a writer, photographer, designer or recovering journalist, this is a great way to produce a business card that leaves an impression.

Editor. Writer. Consultant.
I'm an editor and writer with certifications in public relations and e-Commerce. I also have a background in information technology. (In another life, I was a systems analyst.)
When I'm not editing copy for USA TODAY, I write an occasional short story or poem. My work has appeared in Calliope and the feminist journal So to Speak, and I'm a regular flash-fiction contributor to Paragraph Planet and Doorknobs & Bodypaint. Also on occasion, I interview editors for The Review Review, a comprehensive guide to literary journals and the people who produce them.
My points-of-view are collected on such esteemed outlets as Wordpress, Facebook and Twitter. The views expressed here and elsewhere are mine, not my employers'.
I live in the suburbs of Washington, D.C., with my husband, Trey, our Shetland Sheepdog, and two unhelpful-but-funny cats.
Hear, hear! I got some business cards from them (offer from Klout) and they are very cool (except that they say Klout). But now that I am more settled here CH, I’ll order some proper ones. What resolution-ish do the images have to be so they appear nicely on the cards?
I got mine through an About.Me offer, and I think they’ll say “Moo” on them, which is fine by me. (I was just excited to take advantage of the offer.) The recommended size was 1039 x 697 pixels; the minimum size is 333 x 223 pixels. The max file size of each photo is 50MB, and they can use hi-res GIFs and PNGs. The interface is super-savvy, and the software will tell you if the resolution isn’t optimal. A couple of my Instagram photos I wanted to use would not have reproduced properly, and I got a message telling me so.
Cool thanks for the info. I uploaded a few things on there but I guess it comes out better than the minimal preview you get on their website. Cheers!
