Quickie
 
I am designing some product promo cards which will include my e-mail address.

Should words read

1) e-mail

2) Email

3) E-Mail

Thanks!!

Fussy of Sussex :)

The third one IMO and it's what all our company literature uses :)

Email

And I'm the head of a large multi billion pound organisation, so it must be right :thumb:

Cheers

I think it's a little known phenomenan known as "posting at the same time."

Plus you didn't put the tel/fax bits on :hjtwofing

Why not use little pictures of a telephone, fax and letter (email) :D

SC008Y_MAD 05 June 2007 11:13 AM

This shows the e-prefix ('denoting the use of electronic data transfer, especially through the Internet') in lower case (Of course it would have a capital letter at the beginning of a sentence).
:wonder: Minefield springs to mind, and they are just guessing if you read what they say in its entirety

Thanks for input. I went for E-Mail in the end against the designer's advice who said it should be EMail. What a brave chap I am :)

SiPie.

Coincidentally the chap who is doing my promo stuff is a guitarist with a band and he liked the "plectrum" idea. Trouble is he would have to get a special die for cutting at £70 which is £69 more than my boy has in his promo budget just at the moment. I might suggest that we let him put his company name on the back of the card which might bring him some business and might encourage a better deal! He also has a battered but reasonable Squire for sale at around £50 which might be useful as a spare for junior.

Cheers David

I know many printers who can do such a thing but theprice means you would want to hang on to the business cards for ever rather than handing them out ;)

Good luck :thumb:
