Here's an A4 page containing eight business card size adverts for eBid. When printing, make sure you set it to Fit To Page as there is very little margin at the sides (should print OK to US Letter using Fit To Page as well). The black lines are for easy cutting either with a knife or guillotine, there is some bleed with the red bar at the bottom of each card, use the top left card as a guide.

Here's some technical info:
I have put this together using Inkscape, using the font Alte Haas Grotesk (which can be downloaded from this website: http://www.dafont.com/). If you wish to edit the text or layout you can, but should be aware that all text is cloned from the top left card - if you edit one you edit them all (except positioning); if you wish to move an item and have the movement repeated for all cards, simply select all of the elements desired and move them as one selection; the clones can be unlinked so individual editing of each card should be possible. More information about Inkscape can be found at the Inkscape Wiki: http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/FAQ
I'm not about to start telling people how to use Inkscape, there's plenty of information out there on that subject already. If you create a masterpiece using this as a starting point then myself and I'm sure the rest of the forum readers would be grateful if you could make them available here too.

I will be adding this and my other eBid promoting graphics to a new web page linked to my eBid adverts page, I'll be working on it and uploading soon, watch this space.
