Have you found the font you want in black ? If so the program your using to make the cards should let you change the color of each letter...then just save the work and print .

Hi: What program are you using, if I may ask? I need business cards too.

Here's some good info on the eBay logo:

The eBay logo isn't really just a "font" ... it's more of a modification through various manipulations on the Helvetica bold font. This article helps explain it... as well as gives exact color values for the font and the percentages of transparency where the letters overlap. Hope it helps!

Thanks, eam!!!

Roadsmith ... I'm just fiddling around with a little design your own logo at vistaprint.com ... let me know if you know of something dummy-proof. LOL

If you have the software that you can do it, why not just copy the logo from the web link eauctionmgnt suggested and save it to your photo program. Then just insert as an image into your business card. If you have the software to do that it could be really simple. I use PrintShop Pro Publisher to do all my business cards and have done this quite a bit. Good luck.
