I got a lot of good feedback from the first custom card video. I decided I wanted a Red Auerbach signed card and took matters into my own hands! I hope some of you that are real creative can take this method and move on to bigger and better projects!

Have you thought about adding the square punch lines to your base template so you can avoid waste on printing more photos and then be more likely to line it up right the first time?

@waxmuseumpodcast Жыл бұрын

I have, but sometimes the punch moves a little when I use it, so I figure it's about the same either way. Not a bad idea though!

This is cool. I'm thinking about ideas for memorabilia customs. Thinking maybe multiple pieces of cardboard to build up to a 180 point or so with some of the inside cardboard cuts being bigger to avoid the late-90s/early-00s huge indent in the card. Have you tried something like that?

@waxmuseumpodcast Жыл бұрын

I had plans made up to do that with a piece of Wilt Chamberlain 100-pt floor, but I couldn't get the pieces cut small enough. I've since thought about doing it with a jersey relic. I've seen other people do it and it seems to work well. Good luck!

Would a grading company authentic the autograph after you made a custom card out of it?

Yeah, they just slab it as a custom cut with autograph authentication

If I wanted to create my own cards and sell them on eBay or Amazon, what are the rules or legal guidelines for artwork or photos that I use from online?

@waxmuseumpodcast Жыл бұрын

I'm guessing that's not legal. You'd probably have to license the photos, but I don't know the details for sure.

Can you post a video on how to use Paint 3d. All my stuff turns out blurry

@waxmuseumpodcast Жыл бұрын

I've had a lot of trouble with that, too. A lot of it depends on your source image. I've found if you build it within the template using a high resolution image, it works better. If you copy and paste it in later, it loses some of the image quality (especially if it's getting resized).

Hello, your videos are super helpful! However I keep running into the same issue over and over, so I design my card online and all looks good and great quality etc. I then have tried to print them out at home using glossy paper and I think my printer isn't a good enough quality as the cards look blurry and low quality when they come out. I then tried to have them printed at staples on their gloss paper since they have better printers, that didn't work while it looked better than my printer still bad quality compared to the cards online. I then tried Walgreens and have them printed on or as a actual picture and that again slightly better but still not good quality. I tried using the paint 3d and didn't get on with it, so I use adobe express and it works really well. I am not sure what the issue is on why the cards are coming out looking way worse than the ones made online. I apologize this is such a long winded question, but any help you can provide if you have any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Hey Alex, mine come out a little blurry as well. I'm not sure if there's any way around that unfortunately.

Image quality/pixels. If you have to stretch an image to fit your template then it will print this way. Always better to find a bigger image and shrink it.
