I am fairly sure I saw some discussion hereabouts regarding a template for a PC business-sized card to leave on other Prii one encounters in carparks and in other stationary (ery?) positions, to introduce them to HERE. Of course, I could be hallucinating.... :blink: But searching for PriusChat card template does NOT get very far at all...since PC and Card appear in just about every post....HELP PLEASE!
I'm interested in this, also. I raised the question some months ago about the desirability of giving these to dealers who indicate willingness to pass them on to Prius buyers.
Something like this?: (The "For cutting out by hand" one should be printed duplex so that the back has the lines to show you where to cut)
THANKS! I made a few changes for myself. Hope I did not break any copyright stuff TonyPSchaefer. I think it would fall under fair use. I wanted more of the information cards so I copied and pasted the 4 designs into an avery template. Then made another template for the back that reads. <div align="center">TheForce Invites you to join PriusChat.com Already a member? Then just say HI : ) My current lifetime mileage is _____ MPG What's yours?</div> I left the lifetime mileage blank so I could fill it in later. I did that because my lifetime keeps going up a lot with every tank. Now if I could just get that priuschat.com sticker for the back of my car.
I actually used to have my name and email on the backs of the cards. Then I got jittery about that much information so I stopped. These days, though, if I'm talking with someone and I give them a card, I'll write that stuff on it. I really like the "just say HI" part because it's always good to get feedback. Also the second paragraph is catchy.
That artwork would make good t-shirts, if they could be reproduced a little larger. The small one might work on the front. I may try one and se how it prints. Thanks.

(Please don't tell the DMV or they'll take back my HOV stickers.... ) Now, to make up for your attitude, TF, please post YOUR template as well. AND THANKS TO THE GREAT TONYPSCHAEFER for 1) (re)posting these, and 2) convincing me that, on this subject at least, I have NOT lost what passes for my mind! (PS...just to push my luck...how about posting links to the graphics so I can do up my own on a different template? Please? I am STILL having trouble w/ my pdf editors...)
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Rufaro @ Aug 8 2006, 06:16 PM) [snapback]299819[/snapback]</div> Yes my queen! <_< I have made mine in the avery 10 card format. There are 2 file types. The front cards are all info cards with some different images. This is in PDF format. I use OpenOffice.org and it wont save to a MS word doc format correctly so I had to export to PDF. The back of the cards are in MS word doc format and should show up correctly. If not I will try to correct. But everyone should be using OOo anyway. It does everything MS office does but better, quicker, smaller and cheaper. Cheaper because its free! Prius Chat Cards !!!WARNING SMUG BELOW!!! B) || || || \/
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(theforce @ Aug 8 2006, 04:19 PM) [snapback]299862[/snapback]</div> Ok. I take back the smug for the attitude correction! :lol:
I've slowed down a lot with regard to depositing printouts of http://techno-fandom.org/~hobbit/cars/prius-flyer.gif around the local area, because I've probably papered every prius in sight once already. The "linkfarm" points to Priuschat and many of the other forums. Gotta be fair and all, even if I've personally settled on a small subset. . _H*
This [LINK] is my version of a PriusChat business card. I just ordered 500 cards for about $14 at VistaPrint.com (they let you upload artwork). I'll let you all know when they arrive.

Such as it is. Shut up all of you gutterminds...You know to whom I am speaking.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(hdrygas @ Aug 12 2006, 08:44 PM) [snapback]302413[/snapback]</div> The problem, such as it is, is that anklebiter is ENTIRELY unaware that he is not the size of Godzilla (note size of car! Maybe he is RIGHT!), and would no doubt go happily on what he BELIEVES is attack in/defense of my honor, and end up as lunch. Or at least an appetizer....
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Rufaro @ Aug 10 2006, 11:59 PM) [snapback]301301[/snapback]</div> I just uploaded a black version to my album - or click here. - enjoy!

My albums and my avatar have been hacked and I guess are gone. I do have cards though and I'm willing to share a few here and there.
