Yeah, I think we're on the same page. The fingers in my example were
meant as the "showing stuff off part" while the face would be taking
up the majority of the frame. So, the "close-up" aspect was just to
say that the fingers are in the foreground. I guess it's hard to
serialize visuals.

It's a concept... not all the images would be like this, but with this
one, I imagine it as someone presenting something to you, while also
capturing the look on their face and suggesting that this is really
the more important part. This way, we're showing that noisebridge is
there for *your* benefit, to teach you something, while also showing
how excited it makes us (in a waist-up manner, of course...)

So that's one idea, I suppose.

Does someone know of a reputable company that will take care of the
printing/binding aspects of this? How did the Flaming Lotus Girls do
theirs?
