Do's and Dont's when making ancillary products

When making our digipacks there were some do's and don'ts we were giving, this was to help us make a successful and professional looking digipack.

Use a clear font - this is a given so it can be easily read

Use clear photos

Be careful where the font is positioned

Use an appropriate colour

Use appropriate logos and position them correctly

Use layer styles

Use a font just because you like it

Place text on the artists face

Stretch images

I think the do's and dont's are really helpful, espically the ones about fonts as when making my digipack i found that the fonts that i 'liked' didn't usually work with the product. Also instead of stretching the image cropping it.
