I love the O’Reilly book covers a lot, partially because they’re such a simple but effective branding and design concept, but also because I’m crazy about 19th Century engravings and woodcuts - how boring is that?
Jay Link put together this equally clever DIY O’Reilly parody, which any discerning Web monkey will enjoy. After a bit of futzing around with it, here’s what I came up with. How about you? (Via Acts of Volition.)
Speaking of the fine art of woodcuts and engraving, I love the work of Michael Halbert.
