[Groop] Groop Membership Cards!!!!!

[Groo]

The card looks great! My only questions is what this card would actually be
used for. Does it have a purpose other than just looking cool? Would we get
some kind of yearly Con reward or Dark Horse discount when purchasing Groo
items?
 
On a side note, I've actually been a member since 1999 but have changed my
e-mail address a couple of times. I hope the "Member since XXXX" goes by the
name and not the e-mail address.

Hi Folks!
 
(Trumpet flourish) 
 
OK, at long last here is a proposed Groop Membership Card.  Take a look.
(This is the first time I have seem them since I sent the "draft" to the
card maker.)  I took a lot of Larry's ideas and ran with them.  
 
The letters and numbers that are in that sort of weird green will be
embossed, just like on a credit card.  They will not be that color or any
color.  You will be able to read them because they are embossed, just like
on a credit card.    
 
The font for those letters and numbers cannot be changed.  
 
Obviously the name, number, and year will be different on each card.  My
intention is to keep the "number" the same except for the last 4 digits
which will start with 0001 and just go up from there.  But frankly I am a
little disappointed that the letters are lower case.  I don't like the small
G.  It's obvious what the SA ME 1982 stand for.  I am certainly open to
other ideas.
 
As for the other stuff, that could all be changed , but I warn you that I
will resist.  I like the block letters announcing what it is, but maybe
something fancier would be nice.  The "Did I Err?"  is using one of Nate's
fonts, as is the "You take me for the fool I am." (That could be a little
bigger, but probably mostly because of my 50 year old eyes)  And the back
has THE Groop related cartoon and everyone's favorite definition (in very
tiny letters, but, hey, what are you going to do?).
 
Let's see.  What am I forgetting?  Ah yes, the cost!  Well, there is a
minimum of 200 cards that must be made.  The cost of 200 cards is $458.00.
If 100 of us actually order them, it will be $4.58 per person.  The more we
order, the lower the cost per person.  
 
So there you have it.  Please send me feedback!!!  Suggestions, questions,
comments on the card and how they have it written up.  (I know nothing about
such things.)  Anything.  
 
Look forward to hearing from you all.
 
Take care -Gary G.
