I think all E-book covers are cheesy looking. (Don’t you?)
So I was contacted about creating an ebook cover for a book coming out on Amazon (Links to follow, it is said to be launching today…) I was given the title a few small details and told “You can do whatever you want” (LOVE THAT)
I was messaged at 1pm, I got home at 3, and this is due TODAY. Boo. Its now 5PM.
That was my first attempt. It was a photo I took in Kingston when I went there in the summer time with Shawn. It is the entrance to Fort Henry. Because of the tight deadline I did not have the time to go out and photograph construction sites, so I had to use what i had… I thought ‘gateway’ and… You can see what happened. I photo-shopped my brains out.
They did not like it….
So onto my second idea. I did some research online for ‘construction ebooks’ and they were all very plain and boring. Something industrial in the background and an Arial fon
t title and secondary title below…
Ta-da.
I took this photo last year at a friends condo downtown. Its one of the only photos I have of buildings. It appears that I have tens of thousands of photos of nature… but not much of anything else.
I guess I am done! I am waiting on an approval email for the last idea.
See-ya
