I. AM NOT. A DESIGNER.
I repeat.
I. AM NOT. A DESIGNER.
And lord knows that if I could hire one right now, I totally would, because outsourcing sounds like a DREAM right now... but that's literally all it is in this stage of the game. A dream.
SO. As a result, I'm surrounded by 25,000 copies of Vogue, Bazaar, and Marie Claire, trying to gain inspiration for my Senior Pricing Guide "Magazine".
The inside pages and spreads, while not yet refined, are coming along okay.
The COVER, however... different story.
I had a totally different image than this one, as a place holder so I could start designing a few months ago, and once I dropped the actual image in all hell broke loose.
I spent a long while tweaking things, and thinking back to the "Design for photographers" book (or whatever it's called) that I read a while back, but I'm officially stuck.
This is what I got.
It's not quite there yet.
What suggestions would you make (about the design, not the image)???
I don't want to tell you specifically what I think yet, because I want to see what ya'll say... but I appreciate your input, in advance.
:salute:
