Reflections on poster reflections...

A quick aside:  For my son's promo flyers/posters, I didn't think the text was strong enough the first time around, but was, frankly, sick of looking at the computer screen any longer.  With the revision period grace given, I decided to turn my attention to that right away with the first attempts ending up with text that was too big.  Revising again resulted in the last posting of the Nick Temple posters.  I did have one oops moment when I deleted the pic of him, and then decided I actually liked the poster without the pic as well, so it is also included.

For Captain Ashland and Ganja Boy, I never liked the cropping job on Ganja Boy's elbow.  After having worked with the eraser and the blur and smudge tools, I think that problem area is corrected.  I also moved the title text down a hair so it is no longer right on the top edge of the poster.  Finally, I added a bit more info at the bottom of the poster to indicate there is a book in the works, and had some miraculous luck backlighting the blue text with yellow.  woohoo!!!
