What to do on a lazy sunday morning when church is canceled because of the weather? Have some photoshopping fun of course.
Here’s what I did: I loaded this page of random flickr images and had to pick one of them to create a cover a for book. I reloaded the page and repeated 6 more times to come up with 7 total images. Then I used my hack photoshop skills to turn these images into the 7 book covers for books I didn’t write.
note: I TOTALLY should have given credit to the photographers of these images, but I didn’t think to do it as I was loading the random images. Now I have no idea who they are. I offer them my full apologies and assure them that I will make no money off of their amazing images.
