Hello,

I am making a photobook to my son and his family from their holliday in France. I have been looking at covers under "Kundenbeispiele" and now I am here. But I really would like to hear your opinion. It is always nice to read comments from you kreative people - please take a little time to comment.

Oh there is a lot of bleu-blanc-rouge! The picture on the title page seems to be quite spectacular and the two messi-fans are probably your grand-sons? Did you also try layouts with less tricolore and a bit more of the foto?

What I really don‘t like is the font, especially the 2018. Sorry D:-?

Hello Grasmuecke,

I totally agree with you. I was a little inspired by a fotobook under Kundenbeispiele, but I "overdid" it. Please would you comment this new cover?

( BTW these two are my grandchildren)

Hi Lis,

my comment on the first version was just regarding the amount of blue-white-black. Otherwise there are many things I like: the white background, the foto, the idea of using the tricolore as such.

So I played a little bit with the elements of your layout. Maybe there are some ideas you like.

The circle you made for the backside of the cover is certainly also worth to be shown on the frontside. It just depends if you have the fotos fitting in the circle.

Maybe there are also other comments ?

Dear Lis Viggers,
It is certainly difficult to make a photo book of others. You make a great job!
I like the French colors on the cover.
I do not like the circle mask because the photos are destroyed. The content is not revealed to me.

Would you like to write why you chose such an extraordinary font?
A simple font does it too and does not distract from the pictures.

grasmuecke has also used very eye-catching fonts and unusual combinations. I would not use the second font example because of the bad spacing.
