If the crown relaunched this program in a different form, would there be interest?  His Majesty has the power to confer awards as a general matter, as well as arms, so perhaps a sort of armorial ID card might be in order?  It would be cool to not only have a photo but also a coat of arms on the card, after all.  And since I'm the one who did it last time, I have high confidence I could do it again.

No matter who is in charge next month, make sure to redo the lettering. The Talossan text employed on the old ID cards is not only out of date since 2007 but also at times ungrammatical.

I have a few months to do something in the Interior portfolio, and ID cards seems to be a very basic thing that I can do. If I get a design, I can make a requisition of funds to get them printed, and liaise with the Chancery to offer them to all citizens.

It would be of interest to have simple ID cards, but with investigation for organizations that develop those may turn up some that can also provide camouflage / fantasy passports such as one I obtained for the time I was working in Saudi Arabia and traveling in the middle east.  This was not intended to be presented at any actual border, but perhaps to hand to the nice man in the balaclava holding an AK-47 representing a non-governmental organization.  These may be useful to Talossans both for personal enjoyment and also potentially for personal security, and are typically accompanied by other club membership cards (Whiskey and Science Fiction?) or peripheral documents (Royal Heavy Opera Benefactor? Maritiimi-Maxhestic Yacht Club slip permit?) and perhaps visa stamps from the various provinces or Péngöpäts.  My estimate that such could be developed for $50-$60 US as I believe the Conch Republic sells theirs for $100 (https://conchrepublic.com/order-passports/) as a fundraiser (which could be another purpose for this activity)

Post by: xpb on January 04, 2022, 11:04:31 AM
An interim step towards funding of IDs or Passports would be to get a custom stamp made (approx. $20) to issue Visas to the Kingdom of Talossa of a duration of 2 to 5 years (to make them reasonably durable) where the holder of one of these other documents could send them with a self addressed stamped envelope for return and charge say ℓ6¤25 or $10USD for processing (taking the stamp out and marking the document and putting it back in the SASE).  Perhaps some kind of coupon book from businesses in the GTA could be included if it is already printed and distributed at UWM or similar organizations.

I still have all the original designs for the ID cards that I made and distributed, back in the day. And there is still a seal stamp for the Secretary of State, somewhere out there. So basically all the assets that we would need still exist, and the funds are in the treasury. These discussions have come up quite a few times, and I have sent these files to your predecessors a few times before. Would it be helpful for me to send them to you, or do you already have them, or do you intend to just start from scratch? Happy to support however I can.

I hope so!  It would be nice if there were some visual continuity between the editions, but also there's a huge amount of room for improvement.  I don't have an amazing design sense.  As I recall, you do -- maybe you want to take a crack at it?  I think we're in a situation right now where we should move forward where we have interest and ability, so it might be a good idea to give it a whirl even if no one important tells you to do it.

[...] I don't have an amazing design sense.  As I recall, you do -- maybe you want to take a crack at it?

Oh, I certainly wasn't born with design genes, but I did some research back in the day, and did again now.

So, there are a bunch of standards for and around ID's. The most popular size for ID cards is defined by ISO/IEC 7810 as ID-1, at 85.6mm x 53.98mm (pretty much credit card size). Another standard (ISO/IEC 7501) picks that up for machine readable identification cards, which encompasses passports, visas, and national ID's. There is an equivalent standard set by ICAO (https://www.icao.int) as Doc 9303. (It's in their best interest as these are travel documents, and it's freely available.)

These standards have a bunch of requirements, and I believe the images I'm attaching here fulfill them all, so this would be a legit/legal/valid/100%correct ID. And when I say legal I actually mean it -- The nationality is stated (as per ISO 3166-1 plus ICAO extensions) as unspecified; IANAL, I wouldn't recommend traveling with it.

Codes and checksums are correct. Translations are likely incorrect.
Title: Re: ID Card out of date
Post by: Danihel Txechescu on January 23, 2022, 09:06:16 AM
Another sample.

The number of ID is comprised by a series (A) + year of emission (22) + citizen ID (292, zero-padded to 4 digits) + a serial/consecutive number for the emission (00).

This is all done in Inkscape (SVG), so it's easier to edit and automate.

Post by: Baron Alexandreu Davinescu on January 23, 2022, 10:12:37 AM
Wow! This looks amazing. Is the numbering / labeling process going to be too much for right now, though? I guess that's up to whoever is going to be doing this.

Also, is there a space we could leave for the king's signature?

Stellar work... you're soft selling your own abilities, but you have serious chops.

I'm not married to the Alfios font (the serif one). OCRB is needed. Roboto available here: https://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/roboto-2014

Let's do both!  It's just digital and it will be cooler.

Actually, my preference would be to have it signed by His Majesty and then have a sort of "stamp" emblem, mimicking a rubber seal stamp (the real one of which is kicking around somewhere) for the SoS.  But that's probably too much hassle and we shouldn't let the perfect be the enemy of the good -- we need to get these things out there!

A couple more ideas.

Front adds years in Talossan format. Back adds arms for the King and the subject; I like this in order to promote the arms of the citizenry. There's a bit more space for signature in both front and back.

I printed these options and feel that the picture is a tad too big at 35x45 mm. The spec says it can be as little as 32x26 mm, so anything between those two is game.

Wow, these just keep getting better and better! Definitely the best one yet!

It feels like to do justice to these, we should really get them printed on cardstock and laminated. In fact, we might want to actually just have them printed out as photo card style, like real IDs.

Feels like the government should be represented very prominently, too, though. Maybe scoot over the king's signature to make room for the signature of the Secretary of State, too? Or would that be too cramped?

Also: one of the things that was suggested fairly strenuously by some of the lawyers we have in the country was the phrase, "Valid for all Talossan purposes." Might be worth including that fine print somewhere on here!

Looks like custom ID badges are something like $4 apiece. So that's probably a little pricey to offer gratis! Printing them on cardstock and laminating them will be only 5 to 10 cents apiece, in contrast.

A couple more ideas.
I love the design, but keep in mind that the text on the back still says "qa" instead of "certifia qe", which I can't explain.
Ah, will fix. I didn't see that mistake in the sentence even though I went through it again when you last posted the text. Thanks!

If you include the SoS signature, I guess I better practice my Talossan signature :-)

Should read as 35x45 mm vs 26x32 mm.

I thought it was "King John" and not "King John I".
it's both, but the latter is more formal. He's the first King John! He would be the third King Robert, if that were his name, or the second King Florence.
In some countries "King xxxx" is just that ... until there is a second "King xxxx", and only then is the first one "King xxxx I".  In the UK there has been only one Queen Anne - so that's what she is called. She will become "Queen Anne I" only when there is a "Queen Anne II", and, of course, thereafter.

I asked elsewhere, but having read through this thread, I am still wondering if there is a purpose to these cards other than having them?

They'll be cool to have, but also a promotional tool to show to others.  And you never know what might happen in the future once we get this sort of thing going :)

I won't get in the way of something that motivates and inspires Talossans. I am worried that it will be just another task that gets waysided by the avalanche of other bureaucratic tasks.

Quote from: xpb on February 04, 2021, 10:07:09 PMMy ID card appears to be seriously out of date!  Who do I need to contact in  the Civil Service?

I started this thread with a photo of my previous ID, but the link does not seem to work - is there a time-out on uploaded files to this forum?  If so there should be a methodology to archive those, or perhaps this was part of the Wittocolypse?

Weird -- doesn't work for me, either.
