Hey everybody! I've been away.... well mostly busy lately. Sorry for not droping by as often.

 

Anyways, I'm the lucky bastardo to design the cover of my school's year book. The theme is the four elements (fire, water, air, earth). I have to present it the teacher in charge next week. But i want it to be PERFECT. Here's what I currently have. Please tell me what you think. Like, what should I add, remove, edit, etc.

 

Thanks for the help in advance!

 

(note: E.S.C. Garneau is the name of my school. Ecole Secondaire Catholic Garneau)

hahah. moi c'est l'école, maison et ma blonde. Ottawa a une assez grosse communauté française donc je parle assez souvant. mais il y a beaucoup d'expression anglophones.

 

Sacré en français sa va toujour etre utile though. :D

Hum. I'll have to find a picture of it....it looks very....special

 

All the school's sports teams are named Gaulois (norsmen) so here's a pretty big hint of what he looks like...just think cartoon-ish.

 

btw, the web site is here: http://www.escgarneau.com (it is in french of course)

 

[edit. FOUND IT. laugh all you want]

Ben... s'il y en a en Alberta pourquoi pas a Ottawa, la capital. Et Ottawa est très près de Québec. ET le Canada est un pays qui a DEUX langues officiels, le français et l'anglais, donc sa fait du sence pour que la capital soit bilingue.

Hey fergie. I wanna see YOUR school's mascot.

I'm pretty impressed for my school's webpage. It won the best web page for the french catholic high school board contest thingy.

Nice job :)

 

One thing:

I would drop the Bevel on the text if i was you, just ad a soft shadow to it and make it a bit transparent.

And i think (soft-)orange would be nice as colour.

Great job Jackal, that looks incredible. I once had to design a graphic for my schools yearbook. The theme was the sun, but it looked like crap compared to that. Mine was a simple yellow sun on an all black background (it wasn't my idea). It looked like what i wanted it too, i didn't want something elaborate, but it still didn't look to great.

 

Anyways, for all of you french people out there...

 

Je suis pantalon de ski! (no really!) ;) I do know what it means btw.
