BOINC Promotional Cards Design Contest

[makeasnek]

BOINC needs help with advertising, do you have the graphics chops to help? Our first bounty is for business cards. These business cards should make some brief, generic points about a specific BOINC project, and should be easily adaptable for other BOINC projects. For example, the card you make may be about Rosetta@home, but it should be easy with a simple logo swap and changing a word or two for it to be about World Community Grid. We will setup an online store to sell these cards at cost to anybody who would like to promote BOINC projects. The idea being that these cards can be left out at coffee shops, put on flyer boards, or distributed at conferences.

This bounty is open until Nov 20, the winning design will be selected by our board. If there are multiple designs submitted, the winner will receive the full bounty, and the 2nd and 3rd place winners will receive $25 each.
