5/15/08 It's Thursday!

John Gall's video was very interesting. His company publishes 200 books per year and they are all the same size.
To design a cover, there are some rules.
1. Read the book.
2. Inspirartion is everywhere.
3. Be thrifty with fonts.
4. Practice sound time management.
5. RULES ARE MEANT TO BE BROKEN.

Final product is a book. Quote from John Gall, " Books are wonderful things".

My favorite cover is the first printing of "The World is Flat". The title of the painting of sailing ships going over the edge of the world is "I told you so".
