IUOMA membership Cards

I would also love a membership card.  I remember when I was a kid my siblings and I would create special 'clubs' (i.e. collectors club, outdoor club) and we would make membership cards for each club we created.  We had quite a few at one point.

please send me a card!

promise to photo & post.

Okay, I'll submit two designs.  One is more staid than the other

Ohhhhhhh the blue fish lizard thingie!!!!!!!!!!

Love love love it 

Cool! I would love one too, please and thank you! I like the blue fish lizard too! Awesome design!

Surprise Me!

All right, so the blue fish-thing wins? I guess I print it out and send it to Ruud.  Anybody know if that is the protocol?  Or does anyone else want to design one too?  2019 is soon to happen.

I have no idea.. this group had no activity for 2 years before I posted...who knows...I dont even know if Ruud is active....

I think the idea is "there are no membership cards unless created by the members themselves."  If we want Ruud to sign them for fun, we should try and get in touch with him.  But I don't think it's necessary.  I don't think there IS a protocol which is part of the fun :)

I love the idea of some new cards out there in the world.

IUOMA wouldn't exist or be online without Ruud, so maybe he's on vacation like all good [mail art] therapists in August. :--} The new card thing sounds promising ...

Is this membership card from Ruud in 2011, with the IUOMA stamp upside down, worth extra, like a U.S. postage stamp of the Jenny printed upside down a million years ago? Let me know where the auction is if you find out.

Rudd, I have been and active and passive member of IOMA for a long while and would love it if you would send me a membership card so that I can take a picture and show the world.

Thank you so much

Lynne

please feel free to  make your own membership card....!

replying to RJ - Moderator .............  Cool, I will....Kind of thought that's what I was supposed to do, anyway....and then share it here.

We make our own membership cards? Do we mail them to somewhere after they are finished?

It is your own IUOMA membership card. You keep it and show it of to others. You cn even decide to make membership cards for other you write to a lot. Please do publish the cards here. I've been making cards over 30 years now. Can't afford to make cards now for all members (too many and postage would kill me).

I will look into designing/printing membership cards for the people that want them.  I think it would be fun.  I completely understand the issue of postage being a killer.  I think one possible solution is, "send a SASE (self-addressed stamped envelope" if you want a membership card.  This leaves it up to members to cover the cost of postage.  Heck, there's also Kickstarter.  Depending on how many active members there are still here on IUOMA, crowd-funding is one possible solution to cover the cost.

Again, I will look into it in a few weeks.  I'm in the middle of planning a major fundraising campaign for The Head Project but I like the idea of membership cards so will put it on my to-do list!

a kickstarter fundraser to get out cards would be a great idea!

Count me in for $20 if you start a campaign.  I would love a card!

Yes, a Kickstarter, I'll contribute.

We'll need a design for the 2019 card when we want to start this.

Begrijp de bedoeling niet zo goed?? ;)

step one : we need a design for a membership card 2019

step two : we print it on thick paper and distribute.

step three : we start using our membership cards when visiting official institutions and document the results in this group.

I am a letterpress printer, and happy to print some typeset cards, using metal type.  But it would be very basic, with just the wording on.  Perhaps someone else could take these cards and add some colour borders or frills?

bonjour j'aimerai recevoir une carte de membre de IUOMA

I think I could work on a design... Do you have specs Ruud?

for specs: look at older versions for what is possible.

Haven't sent out any cards for last years (in case some iuoma members wonder).

(I thought Claire meant spectacles - glasses - instead of specifications :-) )

I love that fingerprint-flying-postman card. Is that one still available, Ruud? (even though  I joined in 2010, not in 2009 - but we can change the 2009 into 2019 :-)

Como faço para ter o cartão. Eu já faço parte desde 2010.
Não recordo se faço doações desde essa data.
Por falar em doações, não fiz a de 2018. Posso fazer esta e a de 2019, juntas?

Agradeço desde já o que tiver para me informar.
Mizé

yes

I made a couple on membership cards for myself on the computer.

Here's a fancy colorful one to send via email; and the PDF of a simple b/w one to print out and hand-color -- for use when mailing.

And here are some without my name that folks are welcome to use in making their own membership cards.

If you want a full-size version on any, please let me know (along with your eddress) and I'll send it to you directly.

Here is the original IUOMA card issued by Ruud himself as President of IUOMA when we were only snailmailers. With me looking ridiculously happy. Anybody can download it and alter it adding personal information.

And here is one I made myself.
