I want funky business cards. Help!

[BusinessCardFilter] I know that a lot of people have asked for recommendations of business cards printers online, but I want really funky geeky techy cards. Ideas?

CocoPink.com is okay, but I want something with like a big scribble on it.

Just a suggestion - I'm not connected to it in any way.

Response by poster: And I realized that it is because I know Hugh and a lot of people that know Hugh that they all have Hugh's cards. Thank you.

I want new cards, too, dadblabbit. My free (read: $5) cards from VistaPrint are boring me.

You can print your business card as a little, playable CD.

COD had a great suggestion, but also check out the other cards you can get via http://www.streetcards.com/

You can get metal ones. < - not a recommendation - never have ordered any myself.br>
I got a cool one from a designer and still remember him to this day.

For inspiration/ideas, try searching "holographic business cards", "lenticular business cards", "foil business cards", "transparent business cards", and "business cards made of cheese".

I haven't tried any, but I lust after them. Just kidding about the cheese one.

Does anyone know of anything similar to streetcards.com based in the U.S.?

4by6.com ...they have great business cards with a satin finish. They look great and stand out in a stack of plain paper cards. They'll even do the design work if you can't provide artwork.

The coolest card I've received recently was a matt black card with a gloss black (perhaps a laminate?) print. You need to hold the card at a certain angle to see the details but if you're looking for style over substance...
