Hi,
In the spirit of sharing I took the liberty of recording a clip from our meeting this past weekend on how we use TicketDrum:

You definitely want to check out the excitement at 3:30 :)
Enjoy!

>> I think you are working to hard. Get a copy of Avery Labels design software (it is free) and design a set of business cards. You can add a logo (one color would be best) and put what ever text and lines for what ever you need to write in. If you need lots of these tickets print out one group of 10 and take it to a print shop that does offset printing. Have them put the tickets on what ever card stock they may have open and what ever ink the press is running. Let them dry over night and have them cut them. The difference in printing 1000 and 4000 is just ink and paper cost. Go for the gusto, get as many as you expect to use in a year. There is no need to get fancy. No stamped number required. You only need one side. Talk to the people at the print shop. It is not unusual that they run business card on special, one day a week or two. They will look nice and be very functional. You should be able to get 1000 for less than $10 and 3000 for less than $20. You are giving the printer lots of options (card stock, color ink, time to stick it on the schedule. That should get your group kudos from the printer. If you have security concerns, put a stamp on the back. All you need is a pencil with a rubber eraser. With a raiser blade, cut a small piece out of the top so you can identify it as yours and smash it into an ink pad with your choice of color ink and imprint the back.
