Hello! First time poster, so go easy on me. ^_^ This is mostly me playing around with book covers, and there're a few variations on themes, but there're a few randoms in there too.

[6] 'Arthur & George' by Julian Barnes
[3] 'The History Of Love' by Nicole Krauss
[5] Neil Gaiman & Dave McKean
[3] Lemony Snicket
[4] random book cover detail
[1] 'Not Now, Bernard' by David McKee

Samples:




'Arthur & George' by Julian Barnes



There is more difference between the first two than the pixel-wide border, btw. The second one is cleaned up, the first one is left with the textured effect of the actual book. ^_^ I love my hardback, but the colouring of the paperback lent itself so much more to iconing. o_O

'The History Of Love' by Nicole Krauss



Neil Gaiman & Dave McKean



Lemony Snicket



Random book cover detail



These would be 'The Conjuror's Bird' by Martin Davies, 'Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell' by Susanna Clarke, and 'Stardust' by Neil Gaiman (I really liked the way it looked when I negative-d it, so I shoved that in as well XD). If you were wondering. ^_^

'Not Now, Bernard' by David McKee





If you do feel moved to take any, then thank you soso much! please comment, and make sure to credit in keywords. The icons without any text are designed just to be blanks, but you can use them as bases if you feel the need. Just let me see what you've done with them after! ^_^

I took the Strange & Norrell one, since I've finally just finished that.

The George & Arthur ones are so nice... I've never heard of the book, but now I think I'll have to look into it. :)
