Blue & White 2007 - I was asked to do the cover of my school's yearbook for last year, which students will receive this year.

The typography is based on the works of Si Scott [link]
Some of the other graphics are based on the work of RARR112 [link]
For the brown paper background I used two paper textured from bashcorpo [link]
and the crest is my school's official crest.

Usually the student who designs the cover only does the front, then a standard light blue back and spine is put on by the printers. But I thought stuff that and demanded the full cover, which I got :D

I am fairly happy with the quality of the printing, the only negative is that the spine is slightly stretched out of proportion.
This is the first time I have designed a cover and didn't know how thick the spine was going to be. Does anyone have experience with cover design, and if so how is this problem of the spine width overcome?

That's great! And let's screw all that "don't judge the book by it's cover", shall we?

One thing bugs me out, though. Why "Blue and white"?

Blue and white is the name of your yearbook as those are our school colours. It's been called that since ages ago... I assume since 1931 when the school opened. :)

This makes Pap High's magazine cover fail by comparison ><
