Web: gitcoin bot playing cards

[owocki]

https://www.printerstudio.com/personalized/custom-playing-cards-gifts.html is the vendor were using

i'd like to take the gitcoin bots ( https://github.com/gitcoinco/creative/tree/master/Marketing/Art/Robots/robot_kudos ) and make them into playing cards.

scope:

• custom box
• back of cards
• front: we'll need 4 suits x 2 => Kings/Aces

[L-KH]

Great Idea. I will work on it and I'll send prototype to let me know about modifications. THanks

[owocki]

just a light mock to start pls :)

[L-KH]

@owocki Here what I made for now.
front Ace:
Please let me know which one you think looks good. left: all Ace; right: only Ace diamonds

back of cards:

I still try to make the King card.
let me know for any modifications needed. if those design not good I can create other examples

[L-KH]

Ace from printerstudio:

[owocki]

for the backs, i tend towards 2-1 and 2-1, but i think the logo clashes with the green too much. i like these iphone wallpapers did ( https://bits.owocki.com/eDuBvrpO ) , maybe theres an iopportunity to re-use that color pallette?

for the fronts, i like 1 over 2. but for the spades and clubs, the color should be black not red.

before we move forward, can you be sure these are all in a format / size that its easy to upload them to printerstudio? the worst thing is we create a bunch of assets we cant upload to the vendor :)

sorry can't figure out what exactly you mean about palette!! should I make like a rainbow? check the example image in the right and let me know if there is modifications color/shapes.
here are also King card. I made 3 different versions, check which one you think looks good. and for sure let me know about modifications.

done! if the design is good then its ok. colors are easy to modify.

Yeah I check it and I choose the template from the guide of printerstudio, here is the preview:

i like what you've done with the back you posted below.

cool! i like what you've done here (though the red ones on the left seems a bit busy).

looks great!

[owocki]

next, would love to do a mock of the cards

[L-KH]

@owocki you can check this mock, if it's good then what cards should I use on this mock! (you didn't specify which king is good to use, 2 or 3?) and let me know about modifications. else(mock, not good) so I can create another version and send it

[owocki]

@L-KH looks amazing! pls proceed.

[owocki]

@L-KH could we add the gitcoin.co url somewhere in a tactful place ont he card backs?

[L-KH]

Here I want to show my progress:

I am working now on Jack and Joker. let me know for modification about King and Queen.

@L-KH could we add the gitcoin.co url somewhere in a tactful place ont he card backs?

noted.

[owocki]

looks good! (except the line heigh ton the crowdn fo rthe queen is inconsistent)

[L-KH]

this is just a prototype of mock to check how can looks.

looks great; pls proceed.

for now, I made King, Queen, Jack, Joker. so should I create the entire 1 to 9? here what I think
1- I will make them like the usual poker card except the Spades will be like the Ethereum logo.
or
2- change all symbols ( Heart, Spades, Clubs, Diamond) to Gitcoin products. (instead of heart, make bounties logo)

which idea looks good to you.? @owocki

[owocki]

1- I will make them like the usual poker card except the Spades will be
like the Ethereum logo.

I like this idea!

@owocki here is the file containing all cards design with the Mock.
Cards : GitcoinCards.zip
Mock: Mock.zip
ps: the green stroke is from the template and it will not appear in cards. check template pdf in .zip or from printerstudio website.
and here a preview from printerstudio:

I re-check cards with my brother and it seems OK but please if you find any cards that don't look good pls let me know.

[octaviaan]

Hey, fellow designer here.
I have some feedback.

1. I think the Queen is missing
2. I wouldn't use the eth logo for Diamonds, this makes it look like Diamonds is more special than the rest, which is not. You could either integrate the Ethereum logo in some different way on J Q K maybe also A cards or make each of the suites special in their way. For example, if Diamonds has a blank negative space to make it look like the eth logo, each of the other 3 could have some blank negative space too.
3. Usually A is first, it's actually 1. That is why it's always one big symbol in the middle with nothing else. Then it comes 2 with 2 symbols all the way up to 10 with 10 symbols.

Thanks,
O.

[owocki]

thanks @octaviaan ; agree with your feedback (i had not considered the ETH logo note on the diamonds, i could go either way on this -- what do u think @L-KH ?)

[L-KH]

@octaviaan

1- I think the Queen is missing

Its just didn't appear in my screenshot. you can find it if you check the zip file.

2- I wouldn't use .... negative space too.

sorry, I am not sure if I understand well what you mean. here what I understand => I have to change the ETH to the original diamond symbol! Yeah sure I can do it, I just think that ETH logo will be a good idea, to make the cards more oriented to Ethereum.

3-Usually A is first, it's actually 1. That is why it's always one big symbol in the middle with nothing else. Then it comes 2 with 2 symbols all the way up to 10 with 10 symbols.

in the screenshot, I didn't respect cards order because it's just demo. and about the big symbol. I was thinking that the Gitcoin bot with the symbol will make the cards more original to Gitcoin. if I make it only a big symbol it will be like usual poker cards :(

@owocki ,

what do u think @L-KH ?)

in my opinion, I like the ETH logo as Diamonds, but If the community likes the original diamond I will make it and send it asap.
ps: little idea if we can't choose, maybe we can create vote on townsquare ?
btw I will work on original diamonds + original Ace. I'll send the work when it has done ^^

[octaviaan]

This is a quick mockup I did. What I mean is that A and C are consistent but B is not. Version B (your version) makes the Diamond look more special compared to the rest.

[L-KH]

@octaviaan ,THanks I got it now. and yeah I agree, I just have no idea for others that's why I just let it as B.
What do you think @owocki , the C plan looks good to you? or just let is as A ?

[L-KH]

that was B version:

Cards : GitcoinCards.zip
Mock: Mock.zip

and here is the C version:
GitcoinCards2.zip
plz let me know for any modification needed.
THanks

[owocki]

i really like Plan C :)

[owocki]

@octaviaan which of the card backs do u like?

[owocki]

hey @L-KH do you have a printerstudio.com account i can use? id like to not have to reupload all the designs when i order the cards!

[L-KH]

hey @L-KH do you have a printerstudio.com account i can use? id like to not have to reupload all the designs when i order the cards!

I will create an account and add cards there. lets now choose the back of the card first.

[L-KH]

Here is how it look like with the first back (sorry for bad quality)

Here is the second version of the back.

btw I didn't find in website printerstudio where change design of the card box :( , any idea? I want to make it looks like the mock

[owocki]

looks good !

dont worry about the card box if printstudio doesnt allow it

can you send me the printstudio account login to [email protected] pls?

[L-KH]

@owocki done. pls let me know if there any other modifications needed

[octaviaan]

Plain color back I think is better. On the others there's too much gradient with too many colors. Usually for looks but also print quality it's best to have gradients made of closely related colors. The second color should be to the left or right of the first color in the color spectrum.

[L-KH]

I hope the printer will print in good quality. we will try and see if the quality is not good we will make some modification

[octaviaan]

I've noticed something. The gitcoin.co text should be inside the safe area aka the red dashed line.

[L-KH]

I think the safe area line (red) is for where the front symbols will be. here is the preview :

[octaviaan]

Yes but on the back, gitcoin.co text is outside the safe area
