Cards that mean business

We have our titles on our business cards to impress our friend's and families with now (just leave out the part that it's a pretend job). Wait but it's not pretend! There's going to be some heavy transactions happening in the next few weeks (more on that in a sec).

So this is round 2 of our business cards. I have a few more for all of you but you can print your own if you need more. This is where you find them: APPSK DRIVE> PUBLIC> ART SERVER SPACE> PETER MILES REGENOLD BERGMAN> ... hold on my hand just cramped up... TYPE III> ZEROMILE> ZEROMILE DOCS> COLLATERAL> ZEROMILE BC's

PRINT INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Inside folder "zeromile bc's" is a folder called "print files". Inside that folder are two files Peter made for us; BC.pdf and ZEROMILEBC.pdf.

2. Also inside the zeromile bc's folder, there is a pdf with everybody's name on it.

THIS IS HOW IT WORKS-
3. To print more copies of your business-cards: create a new folder on your desktop (BECAUSE you don't want to be that person who overwrites the original files in the shared folder. That was so 1999.) Anyway... after you create the new folder (name it after your favorite cereal... trust me) copy the two files in the "print files" folder- BC.pdf and ZEROMILEBC.pdf into your "fruity pebbles" folder.

4. Ok, now open the pdf with your name on it. Save it as "BC.pdf" into your cereal folder NOT in the print files folder on the server.

--The file ZEROMILE.pdf is linked to 8-up (it even makes the 1-up sounds from *super Mario brothers 8 times) the BC.pdf folder. Open the 8-up file, ZEROMILEBC.pdf in illustrator and print them. Peter supplied us with the first round of pretty cool card stock, which I have more sheets for those who need it in the next few weeks (Shane, Brooke, Rebecca, Alyssa, anybody else?).

If it doesn't work right the first time just 'chillax' we'll get through this together. The link may just need to be manually updated or there could be a naming issue- if you need help.... just ask our production manager Matthew Starr for help. His number is on the contacts list in the zeromile>documents folder. Call him any time day or night.

Changes to cards:
Inside the ZEROMILE BC's folder is a folder titled "SOURCE FILES" -- there's a psd in there with everybody's name as a layer... knock yourself out. Also, some people really wanted their nickname and might pee their pants if they don't get it so those of you who can handle it, let me know and we'll use our nickname generator. It's very sophisticated. There are rumors that Hollywood might trade nicknames... I call heresy. We need you Hollywood...

speaking of which, here's the scoop with what's going on at the moment:

-Shane, Brooke & Alyssa are working on what sounds to be really nice press kits to present, And they will be teaming with Rebecca to do this. Shane and Rebecca are going to start pitching add space on Tuesday, so please them any relevant files, materials, info, etc and please try to follow up with Shane a.s.a.p. with the things he needs. Time is money... in this case, it's our money. Also Shane is compiling a series of postcards from a bunch of us to use as promotional collateral. The idea is to have several designs with artistic variety, so please send your zeromile promotional designs to Shane ASAP.

-Lori & Eric got a sweet deal with our website and are working on it, starting with first things first, the e-mail addresses on our cards.

-Jenny & Lori are creating collateral to display in the art building to promote the magazine as well as the cover of the 1st issue.

-Alyssa, she's going to find a cool place to throw our party... here's the criteria:

1. Bar
2. Bar

Ok, I’m out. It's really sad what happened to Mario...
