   Dover Publications has had Children's books that use this technique for years. They have an alphabet book here. http://store.doverpublications.com/0486235939.html

   Only "art" people fail to realize that business cards are nothing more then a SIMPLE means of conveying contact info. I love tossing all the non-OCR-scannable (and expensive) biz cards I receive in the bin, never to be thought of again.

   It's far better if you annoy people by writing your information on things they need like their wallets or permanent marker their arm. I wouldn't do it...anymore...ha ha!

   What's even more annoying are those crazy church people who leave bumper stickers of their religion on the back of your car...man that gets a lot of angry visitors on Sunday...

   VonSkippy, I beg to differ. Of course they're a simple way of conveying your info, but at the same time they can act like a mini-portfolio if done correctly, something to awaken interest in going to a perticular site for instance.

   If you have cards which you hand out at social or business gatherings then obviously you can speak for yourself and the card shouldn't have to, the simplest of cards work quite well. If you send out cards with applications, demos, leave them in various places (etc) it's far more important to have an eye catcher that draws people in.

   So in the end, it all depends on what you're going to use them for.

   Hopefully, that "perticular" site will have a spellchecker.

   Cute, but is it a business card or a toy?

   I had a hard time paying attention because my wife noted the music sounds like prOn music.

    "Hopefully, that “perticular” site will have a spellchecker."

    Yes, because being a grammar nazi is more important than reading the actually message. Oh no, whatever will I do? I put an 'e' where an 'a' was supposed to be, ritual suicide is the only logical outcome!

    Being in business myself, it is clear to me that the cards I remember the most are the creative and clever ones. Therefore I remember the people who gave them to me more vividly. Good idea in my opinion.

    hehehe. Grammar nazi... sounds cool.

    Is hypersensitivity worse than being a grammar nazi? I've lost track of the hierarchy...

    Flash animated greeting cards can include interactivity, for example, asking the viewer to choose a picture to animate, however, most Flash e-cards are designed to convey the sentiment of the sender through simple observation.
