FlyerTalk Cards
This may have been brought up in the past but.... (sound of beating dead horse with regard to search).
I often meet fellow travellers who could both benefit from and contribute to the FlyerTalk community. I often tell them about it, but get the impression that the information is soon lost in the sea of other, more important, things that they are dealing with.
Recently while talking to a couple of people in an airport lounge I thought that it would be great to have a FlyerTalk business card that I could hand out which would include the URL for the site as well as a brief description of what it's all about.
Has this ever been proposed in the past? If not I'm curious to see if anyone has any feedback on the idea.

At my synagogue recently, after a meeting, some referred to institutional memory.
A few of us have been around these boards long enough to remember this very topic. Someone even suggested that these cards be personalized with our names. That was in the days when FT had 7000 members. Ah, the good old days.
Anyway, nothing became of it. If I recall correctly, Punki's institutional memory may be better than mine on this topic.

Like many here I have ordered lots of bunches of those $4.99 Vista Print cards in the past for boxes of 250 in gloss finish.
I did a set for my folks with a non existent website, email address, fax number etc at Xmas.
I just use existing templates there, but you can download any other image you like when designing cards AFAIK.
I've had a few Vista Print cards given to me at doos with folks FT handle on them etc.
