I am so excited about this! I really liked how you picked keywords for this--initially I was wondering if it would work, but when I read the fic with the art right there, it made so much sense, and it drew out important parts of the story, to me.

My favorite is the second one (hehe, more John!), but both are wonderful, a layering of what John's going through and such a lovely association with the colors and the strong font. The coloring makes me squee, because it really is like he's flying through the art until he gets grounded at the orange fuzzy fleece!

Thanks so much :)

I loved this little jum in the end, because we as a reader know what happens but John himself has no idea whats ahead. He just is. Realizing that shift in the artwork wasmmost interesting to me.

Because in a way John is lying to himself in the pilot when he says "I like it here". I think it's more a state of not having to worry and still doing to a point, the thing he enjoys the most.

And that Orange thing. It just HAD to be done :)

oh, shiny art! The use of colours, text and textures are amazing! And I definitely prefer version 2.

Thanks and I prefer the second version myself. I'm glad I rearranges it a bit.

Oh, I love this piece. The color build-up and the explosion of orange is fantastic.

Thank you! What I like best is that John as a person has no idea what will happen and how his life will change.

Oh WOW. This is so absolutely amazing! I love the type work, and the colors, how everything flows together, it's absolutely perfect!

Thank you!!! Read the snippet as well. It really enhances everything!

Great art work! I love Atlantis art. It would have been nice to see the pictures within the words as was wanted originally.

Yeah..if I ever find a good font, I might try.

Oh, oh, I absolutely love this! Especially Rodney's overwhelming 'Orange'. ♥

Thank you!!! And Rodney is kind of overwhelming ;)

Oh this is so striking!! And yes, everything leading to that orange ORANGE is powerful and feels very true to the story. What a cool piece!

Thank you very much! I really wanted to make that shift visible that happens. The fact that so much WILL change and John has just no idea. I just felt that this subtle change in the story was very powerful.

woowww those r really great!! i hope u don't mind me tryin out a lil something from this inspiration. don't worry, i'm not gonna completely copy u. just the idea of the writing.

Oh of course!!! I'm always inspired somehwhere! :)

That's quite the piece of work. Beautiful.

Thank you :)

♥! I love it so very very dearly. The typework is perfect and I always love your coloring anyway, but this time especially. Awesome!

You're a typographywhore also, right? need to do more!!

Thank you :)

JUST WOW!!!!How do you do it?!?!!?
I love the big fonts idea elli,and I like the colors you used!That community really is classy thing,full of talented people!♥♥♥

I could ask you the same question ;) Seriously, this one technically is quite easy.

and you should join!!! *g*

Thank you, sweetie. and there are a lot of good free fonts if yoou look hard enough.

They both look amazing, but my favourite is the second one. I really like how well-balanced it is, and the use of colors. The letters getting more orange the closer to McKay they come. :)

I prefer the second one as well because it's more balanced. The orange alway reminds me of that fic. John touches this ancient machine and his brain is suddenly not inside him anymore but stored in Atlantis.

And Rodney has to sort through all the memories and orange is what John always uses in refernce to him.

This looks seriously awesome. I like Two better because of the added John'n'Rodney. You can never have enough J&R.

Great work, hon.*squishes*

Heee.. agreed :) Thanks babe!!!

That's pretty much perfect. I adore your type work and your coloring. It's incredibly gorgeous. Antarctica, flying and orange are pitch perfect.

Thanks!!! It was great fun. Though I wouldn't mind more typo challenges.

Oh, wie geil, danke!!!
Ich werde mir die Story am Wochenende durchlesen. Jetzt habe ich nicht so viel Zeit! *flauschi*

*huggles*

und lass die zeit *g*

Well... I hate you because you are just too cool for my taste.... it's beautiful! <3 Love the blue and the orange.... damn!

pfft. am not ;) And thank you!!

Wow, that's gorgeou!

Thanks!!!

Absolutely gorgeous - an explosion of orange!

That art is GORGEOUS! I am off to read the fic now.

So Beautiful. I love that every time I look at it, I see so many wonderful ways the words and images merge together. Thank you. : )

Somehow I missed this when you posted it -- both versions are absolutely stunning! The colorful blobs work really well with the text and John and Rodney. The caps you picked fit perfectly to the story - Nice work!
