College Central Network

A few weeks back I was on my way to the mountains for a vacation that I dearly needed.  While my girl was driving I tried to work on an assignment for the College Central Network Flyer.  As you may see I was inspired by all the informational and directional signs every mile or so.  After brainstorming the idea and a few others I decided to go with it.

The theme is spring so I went with a light poppy color and kept the green sign with a white edge as seen from the interstate highways.

After, showing the flyer off and receiving some feedback.  I went in a put a white background border on the twitter and facebook icons.  Also, within the buttons I changed them from black to white to give them an effect of standing out.

My book of nothing.

Through lulu.com I submitted my files for my book cover.  This was my first time and I wasn't sure I knew what I was suppose to do.  The website was fairly easy and I was able to work my way through it without many issues.  However, I did find some problems I wasn't sure how to fix.

Due to the time I had attempted this cover twice but I couldn't make everything fit the way I wanted it too.  Finally, with my third attempt and overcoming a few hurdles it begin to work out.  I was able to correct some of the size and layout issues in order for the files to fit properly and things like the barcode wouldn't be affected by other graphics.

Overall, it wasn't bad to work with this company and I would be willing to try it again.
