Very sad. But I think Joe and BDR will return one day.

It seems that http://covers.fwis.com/ has decided to close down their blog too.
They’ve been stagnant for a while.

Ian: I know. It’s a heartbreaker. :-(

Joe: Thanks again man. I hope that you’ll share your collage project when it’s complete. I promise I will post/email pics of my collage/painting projects in return (should they ever get finished). ;-)

Dan:

Wow. What to say. Thanks for your kind words. I’m glad to have contributed to what Ingrid Paulson called “this curious subgenre of design.” And if The BDR helped spread the notion that “enthusiasm might just be more interesting than snarkasm,” I’m really happy with and proud of that.

I’m drinking a glass of wine and just put down the X-Acto knife after starting a collage project that I’ve been wanting to work on for months, so right now, this decision is proving to be the right one. But who knows: if you don’t keep up the good work, I might just have to come back.

All the best,
Joe
