The blow in card assignment was time consuming, but no too too difficult. I completed the task in QuarkXpress. I found this program to be really simple to use. I had to view my blow in card in high percentages to be able to fit all the information on it.
What I am most proud of and what I learned to do was create the People logo. The letters are close together, but where they do intersect there are no lines showing that. So what I figured out how to do is start the logo out as a text then create it into a graphic. This caused the lines that appeared when letters intersected to disappear.
The hardest part was to get fonts to match the fonts on the original bb card. It was mostly trial and error. Also, the lines on the back of the card under the indicia and along the bottom were very time consuming, even though I copy and pasted them. It began to make me dizzy after a long time of looking at them.
If I had more time I don't think I would do anything else differently. I think I managed to get my bb card to look pretty much like the original.
