Design a book cover that proclaims the message of Kiva.  You can then replace the book cover of the book you’re currently reading with the Kiva one.  This idea is useful for these people that travel on public transport, where fellow passengers may have the opportunity to read your book cover and hopefully visit the Kiva website, which would be prominently displayed on the cover.

I like that idea, Mike.  It suggests to me a way to recycle old pages from the 2008 Kiva calendar.

Have you made your own Kiva book cover?  If so, a photo of it in action would be great.

p.s. welcome back!  I think you have established a new record for longest gap between posts!

Welcome back Mike.

I find not direction in the readings of those with whom my eccentricities are similar, but rather validation.

My only solace is that I find a peaceful place where I might be resigned to my depriving loneliness.

I did look into designing one, by using some of the book cover design software out there but not being anywhere near proficient or skilled at being creative, I thought it would be better if someone who has more skill than me to come up with something. Hopefully that person will be able to upload it in .pdf format to the Downloads section of this Forum for everybody else to use. I realise that there are many different book formats out there, so this might not be as easy a task as it first seems - or perhaps it's just me not knowing too much about designing things.

Anyway, if nobody has a go at it, then I'll give it a go, but don't expect anything anytime soon - I'm a busy person these days. Gosh, my last post was on Aug 29, 2007 - that's how busy I am!
