"Credit card look stupid stupid.."??

(warning: boobie)

Love it.

Credit cards make Alan Greenspan cry. :`(

Tips for people with too much free time...

"Credit card look stupid..."

Please guys, if you fix a typo, fix the whole typo.

this looks really cool. I'm skeptical about doing the back side o the card, with the magnetic strip and what not.

On the site, the guy cuts his card down to look more like flames, would that work in a credit card reader (the kind that takes in your card..)?

"THIS CARD WILL TURN BLUE IF STOLEN" = best design ever

@Jaysyn: I think the orig. Credit card look stupid stupid was actually funnier...but then again I am off kilter for the most part..

@rublind: It's magnetic, so I assume that so long as the layer of paint isn't really thick or metallic, it should be fine.

@TVarmy: My concern is that the mechanism that slides the card in and out might not work properly because it can't grip part of the card or something.

Some credit card companies let you customize your card with an image that you send them. No boobie images of course.

this isnt the greatest idea. i used to work at sears and they now instruct all the cashiers to view each credit or debit card under the ultraviolet light thats by the registers. the revamping of the cards may cover up the markings that card companies place and what caashiers are instucted to look for, therefore not accepting your card.

@rublind: The directions specifically tell you to cover the magnetic strip with masking tape.

What I can't figure out is how he got such a clean cut around the numbers and his name.

Possibly the coolest thing I have ever seen. I'm going to pimp out my mom's cards with some really crazy images so she'll have a shocker next time she reaches for one in a store. :D I'm thinking something that says "Aging homemaker with a passion for guns, liquor, and dangerous men." ;) (She's really a sweet, gentle little old lady). :D

Okay no one wants porn on their credit card more than I do. But what happens when i hand that credit card that looks like its been home made with an exacto knife and hot iron to a cashier? Do you figure she'll call the cops? Or will i get lucky and she'll laugh me out of the store?

Porn on your credit card? Now that would be funny as hell at the store...

Zug is one of my favorite sites, and some of the pranks are excellent. (The fake credit card signature prank is classic.)

But a word of warning. The application of the thin layer of plastic may cause some small problems.

Although they are less common these days, some stores still use card imprinters, especially if the mag-stripe has been compromised. The additional layer may reduce the ability of the imprinter to print the numbers clearly.

This is not the end-of-the-world. If the numbers are legible the clerk can hand-print or enter the number into the computer, but it may slow down the transaction and make for a less pleasant transaction.

That being said, often a card that has been used a lot will no longer register in a card reader. This is due to the mag-stripe being badly worn, the card having come in contact with a magnet, or, most often, the plastic of the card having become compressed in the users wallet (this happens a lot to guys with overstuffed wallets).

In this last instance, the card becomes so thin that it does not activate the card reader. A quick fix that some clerks use is to wrap a thin plastic bag around the card to increase its thickness.

So the mod suggested might resurrect one of these thin cards.

Porn on your credit card... now what will I do when I pay the Geek Squad to install iTunes??

...or you could just use a credit card company like mine that lets you use an uploaded image. Of course, I don't think they'll let you upload nudie pics.

I love boobies. That is all.
