 Scanned my PSCS book and changed the title. Printed it full size and placed it over the real book. Placed that over the PSE2 book. Shot it hand held, lit with 2 100w bulbs. Not much post camera, some saturation and levels tweaking, resized, USM and saved for web.

I came close to doing something with the Dummies series books too, but went with something else. This was a great idea. Nice execution.

I would add a third book -- "Voting 10 for Dummies." What can I say, it worked for me!

Nice touch of humour. A bit of extra work, but perhaps you could have changed one or more of the index of 10Books-in-1. e.g. "How to do better than BradP", "Shooting for the Masses"

"Create eye-catching images for print or no score less than 7"
