Need ideas/links for creative printing places.

Hey everybody,

I'm just starting out my own web-design shop and i'm looking to get business cards printed. However, I'm not just looking for regular ol' business cards.

I'm looking for thick cardstock and something different. By "different" I mean a unique coating or maybe some spot coating. Definetely don't want that high-UV gloss. I'm trying to have a creative and "stand out" business card but yet classy and professional. I know most places can do rounded corners and stuff, but what about coatings?

So pretty much, are there places online that can and will print creativea and innovative business cards? How about a place that can put a "hole" in the middle of the card(in a custom shape)? How would I go about getting something like this done? I don't mind paying a fair amount for these "stand out" business cards... Thanks!

I don't know if they're out of style now, but those business card shaped CD-ROM/DVDs were pretty unique. Do they still make those?

Yup! Still make those...i know plastic cards are becoming more popular, but i'd rather stay away from those. I'm looking for a shop that can get REAL creative! =)

Steve Wozniak has just got some metal business cards. Worth a Google, they are awesome.
