i think a creative director should be able to direct the look of his new business cards without this much input ....... my advice - keep it nice and simple & work on your typography
- forcetwelve0
it's horrible. i'm sorry - it just is.
a business card needs to be a simple clear way of communicating/passing on some mandatory info. it's not a place where you should but some crappy image on the fron just because you're excited about printing something. save that fr your website.
remove image and let the thing breathe.

This one was designed by my colleague Nick, partly inspired by this thread's advice:
Thoughts?
- Find a new career.MarleyMarl
- HUGE gap between your two names. why? what's with the phone number being all weird?doesnotexist
- why is it 2 sided? there no point of that.akrokdesign
- kerning on the tel number is.. ?!dyspl
- is this a joke???jeveritt

why such a boring font? says no character to me.

the redundancy by repeating your name is awkward. I'd almost just have a nice white stock, letter press your URL, phone # and email. that's it. small right in the center.

I'm having a hard time seeing your aesthetic in any of these. The photo eye version seems more fitting for a photographer. The illustrated eye more fitting for an illustrator. Your work seems to marry the two. Utilize YOUR skills. Pull some of what YOU bring to the table into your OWN design.
We can offer advice, but if you're going to spend most of your time here trying to validate your position, you won't learn or garner anything from the sagely wisdom some of these very talented people have.

Remove the eyeballs from this one and adjust the margins and you've got something.

Is the company you are a director for an actual company?
I mean has the company taken all relivant steps to be recognised as a company where you live (tax, registered...etc)? Or is it just you working from your bedroom?
If its the first, then feel free to call yourself a CD.
If its the second, then just see freelancer.......................
With all due respect, what could possibly made you think that you can tell him/her (or anyone for that matter) what title he can and cannot use?
- noRBG0
God.
Seriously.
Drop the fucking Creative Director title.
You are not a creative director.
I can tell by your work ALONE.
Drop the eye. It's stupid.
Stop faking the funk.
You're 22 years old.
You WISH you were a CD.

lose the eye - very cliche. sorry

^ SEE THAT?

How can one person possibly ignore all this great feedback, and proceed to do whatever the fuck they want?
Seriously.
Stop posting, or start listening.
