2019 Net 54 Card Set Post #4 - Card front layouts! Share your opinions!

Leon, can you be more specific? Are you thinking team name and player name, or do you have some sort of design that was already made that you would emulate?

No, I was just commenting that having words at the bottom of the front and the top looked better than one or the other. If I had to pick a design to emulate it might be T205.

How are these defined for the purpose of the cards?

Statistics will be post counts, posts per day, Monster Number & years on the forum, I presume?

Is everyone on the Net54 team wearing a Net54 t-shirt?
Or will there be a card team, a memorabilia team and an autograph team?

Positions are a bit more problematic, but there are possibilities

Frank, my initial thoughts in my first post on this were to be designing a set of cards using actual athletes not members of the Net 54 board.

But, if we are creating our own set, I guess we can do whatever, Sounds like it is time for another poll 

i also assumed you meant cards of actual members...perhaps I misunderstood? Seeing as this is a baseball set...I think a baseball set(not golf...sorry!) should be used as a template!

Pete, thanks for the input!

I used these two examples and a template for something new and different in terms of a card design style on the fronts and I am familiar with these styles - - I have collected more than my share of golf cards in the past. I figured if I was designing a new card set, I would try and throw out an idea or design that had not been used on another baseball card set, hence why I used these two examples.

Leon mentioned T205 fronts as a possibility.

What would you like to see used if you were choosing a front design?

I think Pete agrees with me. If I get a Gem Mint Sloate, I will trade it for a Luckey in any condition, as his Gem Mint pop is zero.

Well...it seems that someone versed in graphic design or atleast a good photoshopper(and I'm neither)will be cutting and pasting heads on bodies, etc for such a set. So in this regard...maybe using an existing set that already does this may be a good idea...like the 19th c cards of presidental candidates with their heads pasted on female bodies or the 38 goudeys.

I realize the consensus decided T/E/D size is desired...and I agree...just thinking about the creation aspect. And personally I like Obak backs better than t205 as the brand is more prominent than t205 while still having some room for stats.
