  • http://marioawad.com Mario Awad

    I’m in. Good luck to all. Cheers :-)

  • http://identi.ca/safetycopy Daniel

    The overall diversity is what makes UPrinting.com so great and convenient, but as I have to pick one category I’ll go with the business cards – a great amount of stock options and the ability to customize if needed.

  • http://www.franboud.com Francis Boudreau

    The poster calendars of course! They look so nice.

  • Tanguy Antoine

    Posters. i Love to customize my toilets. it’s true

    I have actually been looking at getting some Die-Cut business cards from them for a while. There are two things that have held me back- finishing the branding of my company and the usability of the uprinting.com website. I feel that it could be a lot less cluttered. Made it difficult to figure out exactly what I was getting.

    Also, maybe I am judging a book by its cover, but because their website isn’t super organized and clean, I have a fear that it will be reflected in the quality of their service and products.

    Thanks for this contest, I hope that the feedback from users helps you guys out! Looking forward to using your services!

  • Kyle

    I think the business cards are the most useful, every professional in every profession needs a business card.

    Hope I win!

  • bastien

    Thanks Uprinting!

    This is a very good opportunity and like @Kyle did say, the business cards are the best!

  • Nico

    Business cards of course, that’s the simplest answer to give. Never heard of UPrinting.com before. Brochures might a be service to rely upon sometime in the future.

    UPrinting, URock!

    Been wanting to get a magnet printed for my car…because magnets are awesome!

  • Cody Girdlestone

    The stretched canvas’ of course. They are the perfect gift to give someone, all you need is a decent photo to go on it :)

  • http://www.github.com/dotink/inkwell Matthew J. Sahagian

    I have never heard of UPrinting.com — so to be quite honest, I’m not sure what is the most useful of their services, as I have not had the opportunity to try them. However, after fairly extensive browsing of their site, I think I would actually very much like the Canvas Printing. I can imagine that I’d be able to fit quite a bit of quick reference material on a canvas and frame it above my monitors on the wall. This seems like it would actually be the most USEFUL thing. Of course, I’d probably take the time to design my own custom quick reference guide.

    I’m thinking of things along these lines:

    http://www.addedbytes.com/cheat-sheets/php-cheat-sheet/

    http://www.xhtml-lab.com/html5poster/

    I’d actually imagine, assuming they do bulk/wholesale type costs, that you’d probably be able to get some decent margin if you had a well designed poster and a good frame to sell to other developers.

    I’d pay $30 easily for something that combined the most useful information in a large and highly visible format such as what their canvas printing offers and according to the site, the print itself only starts at $14.

    I liked the Car Magnet… I had never heard of it, maybe it’s widely known in the US, but for me it was unknown… I find it useful and creativity-ready for cool stuff.

  • kisin

    Business Cards!!

    UPrinting offers a variety of great resources! I think my favorite overall part of UPrinting is how many different advertisement displays they offer. UPrinting offers business card,catalog,flyer,sales sheet, sticker and even gift certificate printing and that’s not even half of the things they can print for you or your business. All of their offers are very useful and easily customizable with the help of their website and i don’t know why anyone would choose anybody else for printing.

    Thanks for the competition UPrinting i would love to win the macbook, Im graduating this year from high school and i just started freelancing in the beginning of the year and have a strong passion for web development and programming I’ve been working with computer since i was 15. I’ve acquired a lot of jobs recently where having a mac would be very helpful because of it’s true color screen and the mobility. I would recommend your printing services to any client for the rest of my life and tell them about my experience if i won this competition.

  • Cristian Garner

    I like the marketing support such as design services and direct mailing to help the small or medium-sized business grow, because some business needs some help and that says of UPrinting that they have a great customer service

  • http://tutorialsave.com/ Court

    I love the fact that they offer recycled paper types along with sustainably harvested papers. With that said I think the business cards would be most useful in my line of work but the Vinyl Banners could also come in handy for big promotions.

  • Adrian

    The business cards they provide are good quality and is the best choice :)

  • http://www.vmgearts.com VMGEarts

    Wow, really great give away.
    Thanks UPrinting!!!

  • Ryan I

    I have been most impressed with the custom folders that I have seen from Uprinting, that’s the need for our company on my mind right now and what I’ll be ordering soon. We use these folders quite a bit and end up giving away a lot to clients and potential clients.

  • http://www.berneman.com teebee

    I love the business cards. I’ve actually gotten their business cards and they are excellent! I love the quality and thickness of the paper. Also, the colors on the cards are exactly what I had in my source file I sent them. I highly recommend UPrinting!

  • Saad

    Nice business card designs that they made .

  • Matt Rose

    The business cards, good quality and excellent service
