After a lot of fiddling and LOADS of help from the very help and knowledgeable people here, I've finally finished the new design for or office business cards. I want to especially thank Wallace for his design of our logo. What do you think?

Looks cool, but IMHO the top of the G and A of "Guardian Associates" are too close to the horizontal line. The block of text could be centered vertically in the strip, or at least moved down a bit.

you got a point there, it would look a little better centered vertically.

Looking closer: The Guardian Associates line seems a bit offset on the left (a bit more than what compensating for the curvature of the G would explain). And the line spacing of the two lines below it is inconsistent, the "Bookkeeping..." line is a bit high (21px from the baseline of the line above, and 24px to the baseline of the line below).

Also wondering why the margin around the helmet logo is 2x wider on the left.

Thank you everyone for your nice comments! This was my first time using Gimp, so i was nervous about trying it out. But all the help i got was very greatly appreciated. And after the comments about the centering and such, I absolutely agree! I am going to fix that so that when we order cards again, It will be ready to go!
