    HF cards

    Mods,
    On almost every camping, hiking and biking trip when I set of my hammock. There is the inevitable questions from the curious about my set up. I always take the time to answer questions and explain things. When someone expresses more than a passing interest. I usually dig around for a scrap of paper to write HF's web address on. This happens with enough frequency. That I would like to print up some business cards that would simply have my name / trail name, phone number and "For more information on hammocks and hammock camping go to "www.hammockforums.net". on them. Is there any problem doing this? I do not want to inadvertently violate any rules. My sole intention for wanting to do this. Is to help people get started the right way in hammocking. And as we all know there is no better place to do that then right here on HF.

    This is "the hammock" information source around the world. I'm always spreading the love when the topic of hammocks is brought up. I think this is also why the forum has seen so many new names, because forum members are spreading the word and example.
    I like big hammocks - I cannot like.

    The HF Card has been mentioned before, but I don't remember what came of that discussion.
    Maybe I or someone else can search & find it.
    I'm not thinking of any reason right off that would keep us from it, but we'll see what happens w/ the idea.
    Personally, I think it would be handy.
    I too will something make and joy in it's making

    Thanks Slowhike! I will wait for this thread to develop some and see where it goes. Before I even think about printing a few up.

    Only mention of "HF Cards" I've found thus far is at the end of this old thread...
    http://www.hammockforums.net/forum/s...light=HF+cards
    Looks like it died right there as best I can tell, but I still think it might be a good idea.

    I was hoping it was playing cards with the HF logo on the back.

    Great idea. Maybe put small drawing of best hang setup on card also and stress use tree huggers.
