BC Cover

[orikes]

Warning: Sim Stuff. As if you couldn't tell from the big picture with sims in it.



With this done, there's nothing to keep me from writing Day One up. Of course, this means my shiny object radar will go into effect, distracting me from doing the stuff I should be doing. :)

Anyway, I'd love some feedback on the cover. If anyone dislikes it, let me know. I'm not completely sure I'm happy with it, though I know I don't hate it.

Edit: Take two.. I changed it a little.



Which do you like better?

OOOOOOOHHHHHH, Shiny!! I love the cover and have effectively been put into "chomping at bit" mode. I like the look of Miranda "reaching towards her unknown future" and I think that the font for "awesomesauce" is, well, awesomesauce. It looks like it could be a TV Guide ad for a new show. I can't wait til the chapter's up!!

I don't know if you can tell from that picture, but your boy is sportin' a nice tan there. I think it looks good on him. :)

I could almost squeee right now but I'll try to hold it in.

I love the cover, especially the little shots of all the contestants. It's most defiantly going to be interesting. I can't waaaaaait =D

Official response. . .um. . .

Squee? Oh, that's right, Robin said I'm not allowed to squee.

Probably this will sound stupid, because I can't photoshop or do graphics for poop. Hey, I'm the one who can't be bothered with ceiling tiles and says, "Eh, sky, what's a little sky?" But IF you're not quite happy about it, I think maybe it's the empty space on the left side? Of course it's not really empty--it's got ocean spray in it. I guess if it were me and I had even a clue how to do any of this, I'd make it more bendy somehow. Assuming bendy is a possibility. I love the photo of Miranda--perky and somehow soft--and I adore the font. It works.

Also, I cannot WAIT to read this. I hope you enjoy playing it, too. Interesting guys you have there.

Actually, you have a point. I think it was the negative space that was bothering me. I added a new version up there that I think I like better.

[penguingirl03.livejournal.com]

I thought the first one looked awesomesauce and then I scrolled down and decided that I like the second one better.

[wtsims.livejournal.com]

I'm gonna have to be different, I guess, and say I like the first one better. The sky in the upper left in the second one I find more eye-drawing than the ocean spray, which tends to draw the eye down across the bachelors.

On the plus side on the second one, though, I like it better with all the pics inside the blue border rather than them going over, so... hrm.

The base of it's good, either way; I like that picture a lot.

[profbutters.livejournal.com]

I'm going to be irritating and say that maybe I liked it the first way better after all? I missed that nice surf boom you had in the first one. Either is good :).

I like the positioning of the photos on the second one a little better. It makes Cecil look a little more ominous. Don't ask me why. Oh, and I did notice the tan on Dean-O. I love it! It seems like just the kind of thing that he'd do!!

Have you played all the way through the challenge, yet, BTW? I know that you've said that you're going to have your challenge be somewhat plotty like the rest of Pseudo, so I'm curious about how you're filming. Feel free to be as clear as milk on this one if you feel it will give away any secrets.

I like the first one. the blank corner in the 2nd draws my eye up and makes me feel like... one of the contestant pictures went missing?

anyway, looks exciting! :D I cannot believe that is Cecil's picture I see there. blech.

[writeraissa.livejournal.com]

Erm... I like them both! I see the things both people have said with their likes and dislikes with all of them... honestly, I couldn't choose if it were me :P

[robinoli.livejournal.com]

I like the first one better. The only thing that really bugs me is that there aren't an even number of contestants in each row, but that's just my OCD complaining about there being an odd number of contestants, and that's something you can't change. :P I like the ocean spray in the first one--like Tina said, it draws your eyes to the bachelors. Also, I don't really like the border. I can't put my finger on why, though, it just kind of bugs me.

Anyway, I'm really excited for this, as you already know. And pshh, go ahead and squee, Prof.

[orikes13.livejournal.com]

I actually haven't played past the first day. :) I know who leaves, and I know where they all fall, but beyond that... I made myself stop after the first day to force myself to work on the quest updates. Now that they're done, I want to get this out, then I'll probably play the next couple of days. I was a little uncertain on where I wanted to go on a few aspects, so I paused to figure it out.

[orikes13.livejournal.com]

Hmm. You're right about that blank corner. I've got an idea of how to fix it, but that will have to wait until after work.

Hehe. When I requested contestants, I told the players I asked they could submit whoever they wanted. Prof decided to pass me Cecil. I think it was out of a perverse desire to see Cecil in a situation out of his control.

[orikes13.livejournal.com]

I've got an idea on how to address a couple of the things people have pointed out... I'll work on that tonight and post the revised version.

I'm excited to get this done too. I was a little worried for a bit about writing each of the bachelors, but I think I've got an idea on how to handle each of them now that I've sorted pictures and figured out what I'm going to write.

[ndainye.livejournal.com]

Everyone's pretty much already touched on the things I would have said. I like the spacing on the second one better but I like the draw/format on the first one.

No matter what the cover looks like I'm excited to see what happens.

[cori-chronicles.livejournal.com]

Hmm - I like them both! At first I liked the first better, but after a while, I think I like the second better. Very cool!

[patrick04.livejournal.com]

ahh, it looks really nice. :) the only thing i don't like is the space in the second one [top left corner], which has already been pointed out. what i'd say is having two of the bachelors on the top column, three on the middle, and two below that. :) but i'm sure you've come up with something. :P

i can't wait to read it, btw. :D

[styxldy.livejournal.com]

I'll add my vote for the 2nd version. :) Only thing I would mention is that since Miranda is (well obviously) female, shouldn't it be a "Bachelorette" challenge?

[orikes13.livejournal.com]

Bachelorette was too long. :) I also decided that since there are actually bachelors involved, it's okay.

[smjoshsims.livejournal.com]

I think that (obviously) everything has been said already. :) I like them all either way.
