And Now for Some Cover-Art

Extravagant gothic floral design for facebook timeline and app buttons

Since the transaction to timeline, I hadn’t had the occasion or inspiration for justifying the blog with a proper facebook representation. Only when starting to work on it as an actual book cover (landscaped, for the digit world), came the realization, that to honor the rather bland facebook platform with all various aspects of the Opus Relinque situation, it would require a perhaps somewhat over-compensatingly gracious interpretation.

Impossible Pursuance

Having subjugated a plethora of difficult searches in the past, never could I have predicted the complications in finding such seemingly simple objects as those needed for finishing the shoulder-construction on the new leather ensemble, two obviously existent but virtually (in a multitude of languages) un-findable items, which were eventually tracked down, albeit not in time for the WGT, where an on-the-spot solution was contrived.

Documented, indeed.

The new card layout replaces the actual contact information to the back-side, opening up space for clearer diversification between the work and the person, now including the blog’s featured tagline, emphasising on the difference with commentary-oriented web-logs in denoting Opus Relinque as an active artist’s medium.

Multifarious Grain

In striving to make every garment a unique conception, I aim to never use the same fabric twice, meaning that to this point each of the crêpe-satins making up my shirts were commissioned from different suppliers in order to instantly bestow each design with a certain individuality, not just in color, but also in granularity, compound, weight, drop and texture; each and all significant factors that establish the eventuall outcome.

plus one

When reading a post on this blog, you might notice the little “g+1” button accompanying the facebook “share” anchor in the far right corner of the post’s attributes.
Clicking this button whilst logged into a personal Google or Gmail account, you publicly condone the post with the effect of a worldwide “liking“, improving Google’s overall perception of the post’s validity and content.
So, if you think a post would make a good search result, then just +1 it to boost its ratings in the Google Search Engine and/or share it’s contents on Google Plus.

The same applies to the larger “g+1” button that can be found at the bottom of the blog’s sidebar. This one lets you publicly promote the whole of “Opus Relinque“, much like the “facebook like”, improving general recognition and ratings for this website in a single click.
