Those of you cool enough to visit the forums will have noticed that recently I made a couple of Destructoid cards. Now most of you old-school Dtoiders likely already have a card, but since I had so much fun doing these things -and because I'm unemployed for another month- I've decided to offer my services to any interested community members.
How it works:
1) Either goto
this thread and make a request, or drop a comment saying that you want one in this c-blog.
2) Our expert card artisans will rigorously research your past to create a customized card that fits your personality using our patented Search FunctionTM and PhotoshopTM technology to ensure accuracy.
3) Your hand crafted card will then be posted on the Destructoid card thread in the forum and sent to you via PM.
4) !!!!
5) Go bankrupt.
Here are some samples of the kind of high quality work that can only be achieved by using small children working for pennies a day in a dangerous factory in China.
Note: I'm certainly not of the mind that I'm the ONLY one out there capable of doing this. If you post a request, I'll do it unless someone else calls dibs, in which case I'll defer to his/her likely superior shooping skills. Also feel free to say if there's anything you would like to appear on the card, giving source images you want used would also be much appreciated.
Random quote... EXECUTE!

Thanks
It should say "lusting" on it somewhere as I was accurately accused of that in one of the forums (probably the pictures threa)
Which is my way of saying that I'd like a card also.
Also add me to your friends. Did all those hours of TF2 and Halo 3 mean nothing :c (ROFL)
you've really got your work cut out for you now! haha
I would also like one of your fine wares should you find the time. I have been playing the race and gender cards so often that they are plum worn out and I have no cards.
Yrs.,

Of course I would like one. Who wouldn't? You sir, are a gentleman and a scholar.
Although no one really knows me here yet, go nuts.
Shoops Ahoy!
i hope you have a LOT of free time now that school is done LOL.
I'll go in chronological order from these comments and I'll post a c-blog every time I do five.
*cracks knuckles*
Time to get to work!
What we SHOULD do is print off the personalized cards with a uniform reverse (or a semi-uniform reverse with the person's avatar and name), print them off, laminate them and sell them for $5.
I'd buy one, just to be a card-carrying dtoid member. Use them as NARP door passes or something. It could be amazing.
With that said, you have more work above than I could possibly imagine ever undertaking (and with some of the nobodies that responded you have serious imagination skills to flex), so I won't add to your list. Until I can pay.
you're a star! I thank you!
Gotta catch 'em all!
I'm under no obligation to do any of this. I've only given myself as much work as I'm willing to do. I also don't mind getting creative with some of the lesser known members that have made requests, just means that I get to do some crazy stuff :D
As for charging for laminated cards; I certainly don't have the ability to do this, and don't particularly have the desire to figure out all of the logistics.
I'll stick to just shooping for now ;)
