Fedora business cards, take three

Ian Weller — Thu, 03 Jul 2008 17:07:52 +0000

Máirín and I were talking about using the Fedora business card design, and how it should theoretically match whatever visual identity we do have right now, instead of creating a new one.

She and I agreed on this design.

What are everybody’s thoughts on this?

Here goes the next design I came up with after all the wonderful feedback I got.

List of changes:

Added “infinity | freedom | voice” to front
Added “fedoraproject.org” to front
Removed GPG key fingerprint
Moved Fedora logo to top and inverse on blue bar
Created blue bars at top and bottom
Removed back

Once again: all feedback is required! Please comment :)

Fedora business cards

I decided that we need a new business card design. Our current one just isn’t cutting it. Plus, I don’t think you need to be an ambassador to be allowed to have one.

I’ve printed a sheet off and I’ve taken pictures. Here they are:

I’m going to fix the templates slightly and make them available soon, along with a Python script that’ll make it even easier to make your own.

Edit: There was a concern that allowing anyone to have a Fedora business card could cause trademark dilution. I didn’t make it clear enough that by “anyone”, I meant anyone who has cla_done in FAS.

Thanks again for all the comments. :)
