So right now I am working on an Id Card using Derma it's going very well most of it is client side. The idea is that there is a swep that will open the menu up and will show you ID to yourself and then if you click the secondary attack it will give a person the opportunity to click e on the player to trade cards that's the server side bit. After looking Santos's RP way and Arc Bank I think I might be doing it the wrong way. And advise would be appreciated.

derma is ran 100% clientside, unless you're doing some unnecessary things it should have no impact on performance.

For a simple method of creating your 'ID Card', I'd recommend simply using networked variables.
I assume there should be some sort of 'ID Number', in which case I'd use: [img]http://wiki.garrysmod.com/favicon.ico[/img] [url=http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/Entity/SetNWInt]Entity:SetNWInt[/url] server side to set the variable, then use [img]http://wiki.garrysmod.com/favicon.ico[/img] [url=http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/Entity/GetNWInt]Entity:GetNWInt[/url] to get the variable client side.
Make sure you are using the correct functions for your variable type. For example, if you wanted to network some 'text', you'd use [img]http://wiki.garrysmod.com/favicon.ico[/img] [url=http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/Entity/SetNWString]Entity:SetNWString[/url]
