Always interesting to see what designers do when given the same starting point & tools - here's the gallery of submissions for the August Wallpaper custom cover promotion http://www.wallpaper.com/custom-covers/gallery
"For our August issue, we gave you the chance to play art director for the day and create your own Wallpaper* cover. Creative luminaries James Joyce, Nigel Robinson, Hort, Anthony Burrill and Kam Tang contributed a wide selection of images, graphics and patterns to our online cover application, for you to assemble any way you like. Here are the fruits of your labour."
