New Business Cards

Please help me decide...

#1 - Should I go plain and simple?

#2 - Different design ... color doesn't match anything else but kinda fits

#3 - Same design with a matching color

Please give me your honest opinions and/or anyother suggestions...

#3 looks best, but I would right-justify all the text.

I'd pick #1 because the trendwhore boxes are distracting.

Not sure about font choice although -- wave concept is good but needs work, too busy in part but too plain in other areas. Text over the squares is distracting. I'd go with number 1 and change it around a bit. I think the wave could be really improved; it's angular in part -- nice idea though.

#1 - Clean is always best for business cards.

I don't like the owner/project manager. Don't like the slash. Can you make seperte cards for each title?

Maybe right justify the website and email address? Maybe??? for balance. I'd have to see it.

#1 .... The boxes on the other two have a "make your own cards" template look to me.

I know that there is one point on the lower inside of the wave where it "almost" comes to a point, but that is actually pretty symbolic to a true pipe.

JayM is liked by many
Everyone will probably shoot me down here and tell me to shut up.

But I don't think any of them gives a true representation of a project manager and the status they are supposed to hold.[

Just me 2cents tho - i don't know much.
