In an effort to harden up the DJ pet card so it looks more like I'm a stompy angry DJ I give you the following two similar designs:
I would still make the purple card since I tend to do both types of DJing. I'm still looking at the font that I used to spell out DJ pet. Gothic Blackletter could work but I haven't found anything yet that works well.
I like the one without the DJ pet text (2nd). It avoids the problem of busy-ness and hard to read text as well as highlighting the blood splatter.

Fonts: have you looked at Dafont? Free fonts and a nice preview utility.
I also know that blood is more opaque ;) but I wanted to bring the grill texture through and the quickest way was to make it slightly transparent.
The link banners are really working well with the getdjpet.com...for xxxxx yyyy ... It extends really well and I can mess with the colors on each banner to make them all have a different feel.
Dafont is just so ripe for raping and pillaging!
Hrm. You're giving me design itch in my fingers... but I have other things I'm supposed to do first.
The banners looked really neat. ^_^
