GSM is Grams per Square Metre as state above, however "The thicker the paper (high GSM number) the higher the quality" this totally inaccurate, thickness is measured in Microns (one thousandth of a millimetre) not GSM. The quality of paper is another thing all together and has nothing to do with...

If your still looking we have a customer who uses us for their UK customers but she supplies print in Austrailia and is based in Melbourne and might be able to help you out! PM me if you want some more info :)

we have banners on our website and personally as I am our marketing manager i like to go for visual appeal but then again we do struggle on seo vs text heavy home page websites but then look naff compared to ours. We have some HTML text incorporated into our Christmas banner you can see here...

We have a bleed guide on our website as we get asked this all time from new designers, link here http://www.printedeasy.com/help/bleed-and-crop-marks-tutorial/ We have one for creating PDF's too http://www.printedeasy.com/help/press-ready-pdf-tutorial/

Hey Alex, nice site indeed, simple design but it works really well. With you being a perfectionist and all I thought you might like to know that you missed the S off the end of pixels here "such as type kerning or moving an image a few pixel to the right." ;)

We get a few request through twitter as well, just by posting with relavant hashtags really, like #BusinessCards and we might get someone who searched for them on twitter, so i guess you can sign off tweets with #GraphicDesign or something might work for you guys

Just need one for Printer vs Graphic Designer now :D

Yes it was tinkering gone wrong, very wrong...

Thanks for the replies, I guess I'll go with some spoof businesses and maybe some famous figures from the past or something, just swerve the super heroes and any other fictional characters. Balders we get many crap business cards come our way on a daily basis, usually supplied in a word document...

Hi Guys, Its been ages since i've have posted on here but i have just started trying to promote our new product Strata business cards, which are basically business cards on multi coloured card using white ink. So i am putting together some generic designs to photograph and put on our website and...

Hey builder guy, i'm sure there are plenty of designers that will be able to help you out here. Once you have your design sorted feel free to drop message for any prices you need on getting it printed. Alex

WeTransfer is good too, up to 2gb for free, no sign up, really easy to use. https://wetransfer.com/

Well as long as a PDF has bleed, is centred and made using the press quality profile im not sure what you could be doing wrong. Send brochures as individual pages and not spreads works best for us too. I have hundred's of problems with PDF's from various desingers that have no idea what they...
