Hey everybody…
Thank you for putting your spreads in the dropbox folder :) – they’re looking really great!
There are just a couple of things I was hoping some of you could please have a look at and then re-submit, thanks! (These are all only tiny little things, I’m sorry if it sounds like I’m being an anal bitch, promise I don’t mean to!!)

Publication Title Page
The ffi stamp is a bit rough / pixelated. Could we smooth it out a bit please?

Cartography
Title page – Just where your initials are, we decided just to put your first initial in lower case, with square brackets, eg. [k]
Page 7 – your paragraph corners are grey, where as the other pages in your section are black.

Signography
Page 11 – could you please put a circle around the page number?
Page 10 – there is no gap between the left hand side of the folio and the grey/brown strip running down the side of the page.
And, could you all please add “type-setters” at the bottom of the page to the left of the folio (6.5mm gap between the ‘s’ and the circle)… it will sit in the middle of the two grid lines that enclose the folio space.
Also, your placement of “signography – the life of signs” is different on each of your spreads. Just a little thing!

Adography
Title page – a tiny thing… please make your initials lower case.
Page 14 – could you please centre justify your text with the last line in each paragraph justified left? And also be careful to avoid hyphens if you can.
Page 15 – again, please just fix up the paragraph justification.
Page 16 – M.I.A??

Graffiti
Page 18 & 21 – The folio circle has a grey outline with a black fill. Pages 19 and 20 use a grey fill. Also in terms of all the folios, please just make sure they’re exactly in the centre of the circle.

References
If these are being a part of the publication, could we please put the list on A3 pages like the rest of the publication and maaaybe spice it up just a little??  

Thank you!!

  1. Thanks Melissa!
    for our title page (Cartograohy) you said that the initials should be lower case but when we looked at everyone elses title pages they were upper case?
    we uploaded a copy of both cos wasnt sure which way to go so you can use either...

    emailed Lauren for a copy of the FFI symbol so will upload it again as soon as we get a copy of that!

    also i assume we are not putting figure numbers by our images?

  2. So with the graffiti spreads, are the folios mean to have a grey fill?
