Description This is my final project for my typography class. Im going to e-mail him later for his choice on the best one, but so far I like this one the most.

I recommend down load for fine reading, although since the full size couldn't be uploaded I give no promises for the small text.

EDIT: Well, I finally got it printed after 3 days. It took 10 hours of straight printing and $40 from my wallet. They messed it up once too, so thats why it took so long. Im sad to say it didn't make it to the critique by my typography teacher, but he said he loved it when I showed him the .psd. Oh well, maybe Ill hang it up in my room.

Wow that's really cool! How come i didn't notice this before? XD
Just find it awesome, especially the circle you put: it's as if it were a magnifying glass, an exact representation of "reading between the lines"~~
And agree with the text you wrote at the bottom of the E
Cool one!

Excellent execution... for an exercise is far advanced.

Love the typeface choice, the coloring, tho I'd make the shadow a tad lighter... more subtle. And only in the inner circle... tho it's great as is!

Just when I forgot how much I love design with type... this refreshes my memories of college.

Of course you passed, should I suppose?

Incredible.

Awesome detail to..well...everything! The circle makes it appear that it is a magnifying glass placed above just the word "read". Simply great.

Great use of negative space within the word "read". Only thing I wish could be different would be that the R in "read" is touching the E, but I don't really know if that could happen beacuse of the shape of R and E next to each other, so really, I don't even think its fixable haha.

So, in short, fantastic work.

Yeah, I was debating on whether or not I should just force it to connect, but then just decided no to mess with the type.

Reminds me of the Philosophy lessons in my school. First thing we learned was basically "assumptions are bad".

wow..... from a distance I didn't really see much, which is why clicked on it. after seeing it up close this is really really slick.

the words " BETWEEN " and " LINES " read as negative space because of the placement which was excellent. and the line of text in the background is pretty much at perfect x-height in comparison to the word " READ ".

my favorite part of the piece has to be the shadow that was applied to the circle, which made a real subtle sense of depth......which is alway sexy lol.

oh yeah, I also love earth tones so I couldn't be happier with the choice of brown too.

nice work

yeah man me too. I remember one time I got a negative remark about one of my pieces called " The Message ".......... he went into so much detail about it. it was the best thing that happened to be in with regards to that piece. I learned a lot from that one guy that took the time to explain. he was so resourceful.
