Couple of things:

I had to quickly put together a business card before I attended a
conference several months ago.  I used Overnightprints.com to design it,
even though I am NOT an artist.  :-)

I had wanted to use our font instead of what I used at Overnight, but
the freely-available font currently in design by jimmac still is in
development and we can't freely use the Cholla one.  (is that right?
Cholla?)  So we need to get that finished first before we start coming
up with a standard business card for everyone to use.

This is the template as copied from Overnight.
http://www.bryen.com/images/buscard.jpg.  I had it printed on high-gloss
heavy grade paper with the corners rounded off.  It actually came out
nicely and if I had wanted to, I could have printed content on the
reverse as well.

If I remember from VistaPrints years ago, VistaPrints put their logo on
the back of every card.  I didn't like that.
