Do you think your credit/debit card looks cool? Post a picture.

Why is it so hard to find a card that actually looks cool and STAYS looking cool after abuse in your wallet?



Personally, I loved the look of this one when it was new, but the silver print on the numbers rubbed off super quick:

The clear + RFID Amex Blue Sky card:

looks OK but after a year or two it doesn't look so hot either.




I think Citi got it right with that black one, if they could just fix the print, I would use it more often.

These are examples of ugly boring cards that I do not feel like using:

If you're converting people over from Wachovia, don't you want them excited? They sent me ^this boring thing.

One of mine looks boring and one looks ugly. Good thing they spend 99.999% of their life in my wallet.

Why does it matter what the card looks like?

And i love your attempt to get every one to post pics of the credit card hoping you get some poor schmuck who forgot to blurr his shit out,so you can go buy a new video card. +1 for you.

I was too lazy to do that, I may get motivated to, my USAA debit card is thoroughly boring.
Just black out the number/name/exp.

I once had a gold card reminiscent of the Maxell XLIIS cassette tape. It was my favorite.

Seems silly to say you won't use a card because of the way it looks, I happen to care more about the rewards I get for using it. As long as it's not like goatse on it, I would use it.

that's a good idea if you have a credit co that will let you design your own credit card.

I thought it was cool when it first came out but the charm wore off. I liked the prior design better: it was like this:

It's shiny on front and silver on the back with silver magnetic stripe (yeah I know the black version has it too). Also, I liked that it flipped over top-bottom. Most cards flip left-right (the back would be "upside down" if you flipped them top-bottom).

My favorite "pick-the-design" card was my Capital One credit card. I can't find a pic and don't have a camera...but was a Sun+Moon tarot-style color drawing.
Kind of like this:

.
I freaking loved that card. Still have it saved. It was replaced with a vanilla grey+teal design. Interestingly enough, it's also another top-bottom flipper.
Ugly:

My favorite as-is card is probably the Victoria's Secret "Angel V.I.P" card. (it's the white one in the back of this pic)

White design with silver lettering, also the stripe was silver. I guess I like silver stripes!

 

[TridenT]

No, but some people do. I've gotten a few compliments on it.

[MotF Bane]

Sure, it's the Discover card with the wolf design on the front of it.

 

[herm0016]
