Do we have a business card for Carcassonne-Central?
« on: October 20, 2013, 06:41:46 AM »
We will have our members meeting at Essen this year, and
I don't know if anyone ever created a business card for CarcassonneCentral.

Joff, Novelty and the others do you have any ideas?

At CarcF we are creating a business card for that forum.
Here is the link to the thread at CarcF in the workshop (only for members at CarcF):

At CarcF we have finshed the business card.

Perhaps someone at CarcC is able to create such card.

Here is the business card for the CarcF as an example.

I did think about this kettlefish...when we went to GenCon. Several occasions came up where I wished I had such a card for CarcC. I made a mental note that I would develop one but I haven't had time to dedicate to it yet. And there seem to be other projects in the que with priority now since GenCon isn't till next August again.

What you've got there for CarcF is very nice and along the same lines I was thinking. Well done you guys at CarcF!!
I just drew the perfect tile for my MonKnighThieFarmer!

If I would have a card for CarcC, than I can put some pieces to the booth of HiG, ZMG and so on.
The Spiel in Essen in the world wide greatest boardgame exhibition...

But now I have "only" CarcF cards.

I know that CarcC has also great graphic artists...

The members at CarcF are creating a CarcC business card, because we need a card at Spiel 2013 in Essen.

I've thought about business cards once or twice in the past, but never got around to doing anything about it. What I had thought about was a personalized type of card; what you've shown here is more of a promotional thing, which is probably more important. It would be good to have something that we can give to people to help them remember when telling them about the site. I've referred a few people here in the past, but none of them have shown up yet.

Yes this promotion card is very important.
HiG is celebrating their 30th jubilee and our members meeting is a part of their party...
Many people will be there at the tournament booth...
So many people can have now a card.

I hope you like it, because we are already producing it (self printing pieces). We have to be finished on Wednesday....

Better to have something than nothing.

Very nice job with the CarcC card - to the talented guys at CarcF!!

It was surprising to me the number of Carcassonne fans at GenCon this year who did not know about CarcC. I bet I introduced at least 20 people to the site but since I had nothing to give them in the way of a rememberance I doubt that any of them actually visited the site.

And some more promotion:

This are the stickers for the small bags at Spiel 2013 in Essen - an example:

HiG was working hard for the community...
They have to pack many small bags...

Even HiG makes promotion for our forums (CarcC + CarcF + CarcL)

They have published at their homepage the plans of the hall 1 and hall 3:

http://www.hans-im-glueck.de/fileadmin/data_archive/Messefotos/Spiel_13/Halle_3_-_Spiel_2013_in_Essen_-1.pdf

Wow! Just Wow!
I've created the design of these hall plans...
Maik took a photo from the CC South Sea at Leipzig and I was working hard for the details of the plan and the boxes included a description of some booths.
