At the end of 2007, my bank offered free personalized bank cards, meaning that you can put a photo on it. Only hours before the deadline passed (after this deadline, you’d have to pay, bah!), I thought about it. So I quickly started looking for something cool I could put on my bank card.
You’ve guessed it: I chose our beloved Druplicon! :)
Update
I did the impossible. I got chx to envy me:
kkaefer: WimLeers: that bank card is awesome!
WimLeers: kkaefer: :)
kkaefer: WimLeers: chx envies you ;)
WimLeers: kkaefer: really? :D
WimLeers: kkaefer: WOOT :P
chx: WimLeers: a DRUPLICON bank card!!!!!!
chx: my life is incomplete without a druplicon bank card.
Sweet card! (Don't wanna
Sweet card!

It's not a credit card :)
drewish warned me for the same thing. But no need to worry, because it’s a bank card. In Europe, or at least in Belgium, nobody uses credit cards for this exact reason: if you’ve got the number, then anybody can use it. Not so with bank cards: you have to enter a 4-digit pin code before you can do payments with it.
The first number is a unique bank card number. You can’t do anything with that. The second is my account number. The only thing you can do with that, is sending money to it :P
Brute forcing a 4 digit
Brute forcing a 4 digit number is a lot easier than guessing a credit card number out of thin air, though.
Only manually and only 3 tries allowed…
Aww man!
Wim, you’re threatening to one-up my socks! My collection is incomplete :-)
Drupal socks are still cool! :)
Your socks still rock ;) I haven’t managed to see them in real life yet, so you better be wearing them at the next European Drupalcon!
By the way, I bet somebody could make a living just from selling Drupal gadgetry…
That is one sweet looking
That is one sweet looking card. A great conversation starter (at the checkout) too :P
Where's the TV commercial?
I get this reminder of the Capital One credit card commercials here in the states. Upload your own photo, yadda, yadda.
Very fun card.

3 ears ago i asked the same from the postbank in the netherlands and uploaded my drupal bank card. however, it was turned down… it might have somthing to do with the text I added “drupal kicks ***” :-)
