@pcbranding That is something I have been debating for some time actually. A nice A4 box with prints in archive sleeves would still work nicely wouldnt it?

The more I think about it the more i like the idea. I really dont have the space to construct an A3 portfolio right now and im not sure what other options I have available to me. If anyone has any thoughts on that one I would be thrilled to hear them. Thanks for all the replies. g

Good to know I am not the only one who thinks so. I have considered the cost though when you take into consideration printing costs, paper, ink etc it does become more cost effective. Coupled with the convenience I think it might just be a winner.

Hey guys, I have recently moved to London in search of green graphics pastures and find myself living out of a box (god bless London rent prices). This means that I have next to no space for mounting, printing, etc so constructing a full sized A3 portfolio is going to be tricky. I do in...

Hiya, yeah the card looks sweet! Im now totally torn between something in that style or glossy black foil on black or dark grey card lol. the place I am using is auroraprint.co.uk. There seems to be a problem with the site at the moment but the chap you need to speak to is Phil, a great guy who...

i have just received a sample card in metalic bronze foil on grey GF Smith card if anyone wants to see. i think this would work real well for the orange / grey design. Any thoughts? bronze foil card on Flickr - Photo Sharing!

I have just received a sample of bronze foil on GF Smith card if anyone would like to see. I am seriusly considering using this process for the orange / grey idea. Any thoughts? bronze foil card on Flickr - Photo Sharing!

The orange is starting to seem a little hit or miss to me, and the black / grey idea is sounding better and better all the time. I think it would be striking, reasonably original (i havent seem many like it) and it would be easy to carry across in the design f my portfolio and website as well...

Thanks for the advice. I dont want to make teh text TOO small since i thought that might detract from the design but I have shrunk it slightly in batch 2 of the proofs. Take a look. flikr biz card proofs on Flickr - Photo Sharing!

I have actually been sitting on the Grey / black design for ages but suddenly came up with the Grey / orange a couple of days ago. I am totally on the fence between the two and cant decide lol. Thanks for the tip with about letterpress that is really helpful. So far i havent seem any orange...

Ill try and get some pics of the designs up tomorrow. Ill put some jpegs up and some photos of some print proofs as well, though they will only be photos of some epson print outs at this time. I havent been here long but I assume that a link to a flikr gallery would be a good way to go? Thanks...

Hi guys, This is my first real post on these forums so im rather excited. I have recently become a victim of the recession so I am redoing my portfolio, business cards etc. I am slightly torn between my various ideas. The design itself is almost finalised and I will post it as soon as its...

Thanks for the tip dave. i am currently weighing between a card exactly like you just described and one that would be a very light grey, probably around 25% with orange lettering. I think either would look really good though the grey and orange one I would get down in either letterpress or litho...
