Default Are there any Business Card gallery sites?

anyone know of sites for getting inspiration for buisness card designs? or even just a list of the top identity/branding design firms out there?

I'm aware of Design Inspiration Gallery - FAVEUP. they actually have a business card gallery, but it's pretty new and does not have too many entries.

i searched the forum but did not find much on this.

what font sizes are typically used on business cards? is 6pt too small, say for the address portion and 8pt okay for the name and/or contact information.

sorry toon, I realize you are not Google, but honestly, sometimes you answer so quickly on here that you're better than google ;)

AND THANKS for that link. just what i was looking for. creative stuff there.

It depends how creative you want to be, I saw a great business card the other day for a Search Engine Optimization guy and the type was so small you need a magnifying glass to read it, the only thing that was readable was, you'll need a magnifying glass to read this.

You put it under the glass and it said something like..

Is your website like this, it looks nice close up but can anyone find you without help
I like things like that a little creative.

Size of type depends on what you're doing with it.
