my favorites were the something unwinding itself and the enjoy the ride (or whatever it was called - i forgot) from brooke. history repeating itself would be cool but i'm not sure how much we could design around it, you know? but anyway, those are my top picks!

Yet another idea ...
This link was sent to me via the JEA listserv. It regards a particular font.

This idea would revolve around the word "typeface". That's what our yearbook is made up of type and faces. How does this hit you. Any ideas for spinning it out to the sections?

Let's start narrowing down
WOW - we've got some great ideas going here. It's time to start narrowing them down. Re-read all of the posts and pick your top three. Before you select be sure to consider how the ideas relate to the coming year and how they will play out on the cover and the five section dividers: PEOPLE, STUDENT LIFE, SPORTS, ARTS & ORGANIZATIONS, ADS & INDEX.

just hit me...
Hey, it's Kelsey.
A theme hit me while reading Brooke's post, the part about music and sound. I hope this isn't corny.
The halls are alive...with the sound of music.
"The Halls are Alive..." could be on the cover, and on the opening spread it could say "with the sound of music"

some stuff i have been thinking about
-something with hands in the community i thought it would be cool with differnt people's hand prints thoughout the book
-enjoy the ride....like enjoy this crazy journey through usn...this could have theme park feel or street signs and a more driving through the city feel...like our new hallway street signs
-push play:'08...something with sound and records, each grade has its own sound and differnt kinds of music that influenced them...and you can go through time like from records to tapes to cds to now ipods, or differnt types of music...also with the records/cds and '08 there could be a circles and rounded edges as an element
-something like strands being unravelled...like the bigger picture being stripped into each individual strand...its holds it together...like a cloth being being unravelled and each strand is seperate and important in making the whole picture, like each student making the entire class/school of usn
-three words where the u,s and n are in squares and they stand out some cool words: unique, about, ultimate, underneath, sound, now, altitude, stripped, sample, unscrew, new

Greetings from Siffat in India
Following is taken from an email received Tuesday morning from Siffat:
I just arrived in Mumbai on Monday night. Before flying out of the US, I
visited a couple of colleges over the weekend. But I am now settled in and
ready to begin work. I have read over our blog and all your emails and also
posted a new entry. I really like the ideas of Double Exposure and the
Chinese calendar. Unfortunately, next year's seniors were born in the year
of the snake or the horse - had it been the tiger, we could have related it
more to USN. Nevertheless, the idea of the Wii - WE (with usage of other
pronouns) sounds really good too.

This is from an email that Brooke sent me last week in response to the theme idea "just a little bit of history repeating itself"."as far as themes my friends from jefferson city ,who got honorable mention for their yearbook, theme is unbreakable bonds because of that grades impact and how the school has stayed with its roots despite new additons and changes. I thought this is a really cool idea because our school has gone through similar changes but we still identify with things from thepast like PDS. Anyway just and idea kind of the same main idea as ms.tanners (i really like that idea i guess because i have been at USN so long and i have a lot of history here and i like that even though each year the seniors leave their mark, some things stay the same and are preserved.)
