    Pledge 3 - seems quite a shrewd move

    Thanks for sharing this image. Very ingenious. It looks like she's used the same design idea with great effect using other word combinations as well.

    @Ernie, Nice graphics.

    Yes it was done in Affinity Designer on a Mac. I switched over a few years ago, but my heart still belongs to Xara. I think it's a first love sort of thing! There are still...

    I guess this one depends if you're familiar with the rock band Muse's album cover from 2001. I saw them at Wembley once - great gig, worst fish & chips ever!
