OK everyone - I need some help. As most of you know, I am concentrating on my TTM collection. However, there are a lot of players that I would like to try and get, but they do not have cards. Therefore, I am looking for some help in making CIC's - Custom Index Cards. Here are the catergories I am looking for:

College (any and all sports)
Minor Leagues (baseball and hockey)
Announcers
Executives
Anything else you guys can think of.

You need to design a card and post it here. Be as creative as you want, but remember, these are for autographs. If you create a design that I like, I will reward you for it with a nice card from my collection. Now - you will have to relinquish all rights to the card design - you can certainly use it in your "portfolio", however all use of said card will be relinquished to me.

Anyway - let's see what you've got! And trust me - these will be good cards!

I actually did it in about an hour. It was the first time i opened photoshop at work. Pretty basic, but that is my personal preference. plain and classy... my wife's tastes have rubbed off on me! It was fun to do, I needed to do some work on photoshop for work, so what better way to practise? :D I wish photoshop wasnt so stinkin expensive so I could take it home!

Cheers,
Ryan

Hello
I would like to join this... I just finished on sunday designing one...
We dont need to write the autograph too, right? Or should we make it an autogrpahed card? or just with the space for the player to sign his auto on it.. like TTM.
If possible, i would like to email the card design to you for entering into this contest... please let me know. thanks. paul

Paul,

You do not need to have an actual autograph on the card, just keep in mind that the card is intended to be sent out for TTM autographs. You can email it or post it - either works.

Ok, So this is one that I know you can get auto'd with 100% success rate. It took me awhile and yes, I am still learning photoshop, so you will see flaws, but here we go!
