In the background would be barely visible human forms. But you really have to be looking to see them, or turning the book in just the right way to catch a glimpse. <BR/><BR/>Fun!<BR/><BR/>oh, and the title would be in dripping letters.<BR/><BR/>christyC.R.

Instead of people asking about it, I made a collage of symbols that represented the book along with its title and (maybe) release date.Anne Spollenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12915171740680350711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8464201653179922615.post-15530858280026921092008-10-06T20:31:00.000-04:002008-10-06T20:31:00.000-04:00Amber, do!Thorp, that is a sweet ride and a sweet ...Amber, do!<BR/>Thorp, that is a sweet ride and a sweet cover.Jacquihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08277260387578439327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8464201653179922615.post-8528776172746724192008-10-06T19:57:00.000-04:002008-10-06T19:57:00.000-04:00This really is a terrific idea, Jacqui -- and tell...This really is a terrific idea, Jacqui -- and tell Thor I agree that dripping letters RULE! In my case, the image that comes to mind is my dad's <A HREF="http://classic-motorcycles.com/norton_commando.html" REL="nofollow">1974 Norton Commando 850</A> -- a roarin' old British motorcycle. His was black, and "Norton" appeared in gold, in the classic Norton script pictured, but dripping <EM>just enough</EM> to suggest "monster inside."J.

Spaced haphazardly and somewhat precariously on the edges are a series of objects: an old Chinese compass, a pair of french opera glasses, a set of old playing cards. A girl with dark hair can only be seen from behind, reaching toward the shelf. The title: The Falcon Society (which, BTW, is NOT the working title). And no, I didn't draw it. But I did collect the real objects and photograph them.Elise Murphyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14205799699628024211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8464201653179922615.post-9189952720505393562008-10-06T11:37:00.000-04:002008-10-06T11:37:00.000-04:00This is a great idea!
