A better cover for Kirsti Ellilä's book


Tein sen sitten saman tien: muokkasin Kirsti Ellilän Outoa rakkautta -kirjan kantta. En osannut tehdä sitä Photoshopissa enkä osannut tehdä värillistä PDF:ää, joten tein kannen Pagemakerissa ja tulostin sen ja skannasin uudestaan - siksi kuva on hailakka ja siinä on moiretta ja ties mitä. On tämä silti parempi kuin alkuperäinen.

(See below. This is my redesign of Kirsti Ellilä's book, Strange Love (it combines elements of women's romance and science fiction and crime and was published in the same series of books for which I've edited some, i.e. the porn anthology I've mentioned from time to time). The cover illo is by Jukka Murtosaari. I know designing book covers is difficult and I most certainly know this should be much better, but still I do think this would do better justice to the illo and wouldn't be so clumsy.)
