I really like the idea of different backgrounds for different crafts.

2d Barcode anyone?

Is it possible to get double sided business cards?
When I make cards, I try to make one side contact/about/advertisement and
the other side a reference of sorts...
Color codes for resistors
Different screw/screw head types
Ruler
Sewing needle gauge
Portable sundial
First Aid!
Hazard Symbol
List of web links (suppliers, blogs, etc.)
