    I have just been looking at our members map, I seem to be in the middle of this vast open area all alone, why is that?

    Oh know that’s going to open the comments flood gates is it not?

    I need to promote membership around and about my local area if I’m not going to be Billy no mates this summer so let’s get this calling card up and running. This needs to be professional looking so that the local Honda dealers will keep cards on their counters.

    Its simple enough we need the logo uplifting onto a windows application that we can all print off and cut down to size, you can get 12 cards per A4 sheet of card.

    Now the important bit, who knows how to do this,

    I’m not a computer wiz but I’ll have a play

    Looks good and I know this is in the pipe line as it has been discussed with Dan and Rob. But do keep the ideas and suggestions coming. always good to get new fresh ideas on what to do

    I did it the difficult way by taking a screen shot and then opened that on paint and then cropped the screen shot down to the image i wanted. there will be an easier way though

    I'll go photo option!

    These are pretty much business card size, just change your member name on page 2, print double sided on colour in either paper or card... Done!

    obviously this is just an idea of what could be on it... not what it should look like

    To be honest, if i saw one of these cards in a bike shop i would not pick one up. The title is too specific, i haven't got, or am i likely to own, a CBR100RR. I would see this as a site only for 1000RR riders, of which, i am not. The only reason i came to this site was a personal reccomendation from someone on a 'Blade forum, i wouldnt have thought of looking further than the title otherwise. I'm glad i did! Couldnt we have something like "For all Fireblade riders '92 - '12", or summat? Something to say that its not an exclusive 1000RR forum?
