We promised our good friends over at Adam & Eve that we would sneak in a mention here that if you know where to look, you can actually get your own copy of Michael Ninn’s The Four a full couple of months before it officially becomes available. … Not to be TOO sneaky about it, we decided to go with our usual tongue in cheek subtlety, so … um … LOOK HERE to take advantage of that chance. Honestly, this came as no major sacrifice, just so you know, because we like being nice to Adam & Eve. Who knows when we might need a fig leaf, after all?
If It Feels Good …

We’ve mentioned quite a few times here that when it comes to product packaging design, our dear friend Michael Ninn could suffer from what we benevolently call “Artistic Paralysis” to some degree. Many times we have been in a position to look at work in progress on cover art, and it may surprise you to learn that almost that same number of times we have been confused by the decisions regarding text. It has become shorthand in conversation here to say simply, “I was more going for the look of it,” — which means basically, “Yeah, you can’t really read it, but gosh doesn’t the design of the text lines look great in support of the (vastly higher on the importance scale) photograph?”
