This is a page for possible/impossible covers for the book.
I am currently unaware of the size of the book, so full cover measurements including bleed area would be a handy addition to this page.
Currently can't upload files to the wiki! --Rev. St. Syn, KSC 08:23, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
Forget it, I'll link to photobucket, duh. ;) --Rev. St. Syn, KSC 08:29, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
- I like the first one. The second one, not so much. Do you think you could perhaps work in the ampersand-ligature idea I had, because I think that would work better with your design than with my drawing/sketch.

- Nice. I agree that the third one along is the most interesting one. Can you find out what the font is?
- Rev. St. Syn, KSC 11:23, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
The pages are 11 x 8.5 inches folded in half. So each page is 5.5 x 8.5 inches.
I like all of them, btw.

Hi, Net

Hey Syn,
I'll stop manhandling your colors and just leave some roadside dings on it.
