print business cards, turning out to be a good earner

[TimMc]

Thanks Donna! I appreciate your support immensely!

@Borg - Hopefully you'll be receiving more and more of those payments via Payoneer too! I'll have your most recently submitted templates approved by the end of today I hope. Thanks for continuing to upload new designs! I hope you sell lots of 'em!!!

The business card is still in my list. 

So much to do, so little time!   

[TimMc]

Madelaide...it only takes 25 templates to get your portfolio published (hint hint).

We would be thrilled to have your work on our sites! I just finished perusing your website and you've traveled to some fantastic places.

I hope you'll find the time to go ahead and join our community.

Thanks,

Tim

Yeah, I have been trying to figure out if it is worth the time.  Wasted a lot of effort uploading to a couple of agencies recently.  Would like to avoid that in future!

Hi Eireann,

Yes, please fill out the application so I may review it and process it. I'll follow up with an email shortly after to let you know your account has been reviewed. Judging from the links to your stock portfolios, you shouldn't have any issues in getting your application approved.

Thanks Donna for your help with this too! Much appreciated!!!

At the risk of seeming redundant, I'll say it again. I really enjoy working with this site. My sales haven't been huge, but my portfolio is still small. Some artists have over a thousand cards online. Some who signed up at the beginning may be in the thousands, but there is no minimum for payout. You get what you earn every month. Creative bursts hit me, and I design 20 or 30 cards in a week. I don't think that one has ever been rejected. They are an extremely pleasant and easy site to work with.

[TimMc]

Thanks Pat! I appreciate your kind words. You have a great portfolio and I always enjoy seeing more of your designs when you submit them!

I like PBC!   Will be uploading some more designs soon.

[Eireann]

Hi,
sorry for the late reply. I've been out and about shooting things, and trees and skies. 
Now I'm excited
I love happy threads and definitely this is one.
Thank you all for your replies and Donna for her detailed how-to guide.
I'll be jumping on the wagon in the next few hours.
Sales or no sales, I have a good feeling about this, can't wait to get started and that's all that matters.
Thank you!

I hate that acronym PBC!!!  I have a rare chronic disease that they abbreviate to PBC because it's too much of a mouthful to say. Can't we call them something else?

How about "CCA" for Color Card Administrator the actual company or "TAOBC" for TheArtofBusinessCards where you all call home? PrintBusinessCards is just one of over 500 sites your artwork is sold through.  EasyCardDesigner provides software to large and small companies that all use your business card templates.  Here are a few examples of other sites that offer your artwork:

I wish you all the best and thank you for being apart of our community!  

[TimMc]

Thanks Keith!

Yes, PBC (PrintBusinessCards.com) is our main, 'flagship' website, but we are CCA (Color Card Administrator).

I've had several new people from here sign up and begin uploading some excellent card designs. THANK YOU! I hope that more of you will follow their lead as well. We're growing and we are eager to have great illustrators, designers, artists, and photographers join our community.

Again, thank you!

[TimMc]

Hi Folks. I hope your summer was a great one...can't believe it's over already!

Anyhow, I just wanted to drop in again and say THANK YOU. Over the summer several folks from MicroStockGroup signed up with us and created some fantastic portfolios. Quite a few of you have already started racking up sales too, which is awesome.

So, just wanted to wish everyone a happy fall and pass on my thanks for a good summer.

Take care!

I forgot to re-sign up. 

[TimMc]

Hi Madelaide,

Just "swing by" www.TheArtofBusinessCards.com and fill out the quick little registration form. As soon as you're done, it will notify me and I'll get you set up ASAP. It would be great to have you as part of our community there!

Thanks,

Tim

[Xalanx]

I will give it a try...

[eppic]

I had a few sales over the summer from my meager port.  Reminds me to submit more again there soon.

[TimMc]

Hey Eppic! Upload away! Then that "meager port." will generate even more sales. Seriously, I hope you'll create more templates. Take care!

Xalanx, I'm checking out you application now. Looking through your site and your stock galleries. I'll email soon. Thanks!

Tim, the form says I have to be proficient in PS, but I don't use PS, I use PSP instead.

I'm glad I saw this thread. As a rehabbed designer I have a lot already done that were never chosen by clients  and now photography.  I always loved designing cards, just don't like the customers  cant wait to explore this site more.   

[gill]

Thumbs up from me! The on-site search could do with tweaking, the categories from the customer front-end, don't cover everything, and if you have two single tags (as it's relevant to me) "combine" and "harvester", and someone searches for "combine harvester", it won't find it. The downside is not being able to add tags yourself, but having to let Tim know what tags you want added. Being able to add my own tags would make it perfect, otherwise, it gets a "very good"

[Anita Potter]

Are all files that are uploaded there to be psd files?  If so what version of Photoshop.  I ask because my version is way back to PS 7 and may not be what you're after if you need CS or above.  I couldn't find an FAQ to view answers to my question.

If anyone that's on the site as a contributor could answer or if Tim's around I would really appreciate it
