birdhead| Nau mai, haere mai, welcome to my design-scrapbook-blog-project. What is this? It's a scrapbook blog. I photocopy and scan and crop and upload pieces of book design that I like and dislike and am just kind of meh about. Then I talk about them a little bit. I am interested in design from a usability perspective; I like design to reflect and be respectful of content and audience; and I like variety. I also think jacket design should be commercial. Sometimes that just means beautiful; other times it means positioning a book clearly within its genre. How do I get around? There are lots of ways to read me. You can start at the top and scroll down, working backwards through time. Alternatively, you could start at my first post and go through the posts one by one - you can use the forward and backward arrows at the bottom left of each post to do this. You can also use tags, either by checking out the sidebar on the left of each page, or from the tags page. My tags are organised by kind of book and by the type of page I'm discussing. OMG! How do I contact the maintainer? My telepathy reception is spotty so I recommend email: tui.head(at)gmail(dot)com. You can also leave a comment on any entry. Why is this a community and not a personal journal? Because I wanted to be able to manage it easily. To all intents and purposes this Dreamwidth community functions as a personal journal. Membership will remain closed indefinitely. |
