or even half and half vertically a bit like this....




With the picture on the left and solid black on the right

Here is the updated version, taking your ideas into consideration.

Another very popular style is to split the image a little like this....



Another is splitting it into a grid like above but vertically as well creating a grid pattern.

much more interesting already, try adding a similar black curve at the top to encapsulate the top header, it doesn't have to be as deep but try and follow the shape

haha, I actually just did that, read my mind, i will go ahead and post.

That's pretty good we'll have this cracked in record time!

[matt2364]

haha, i think so, thanks again for the help everyone. Any more suggestions, I think I need to change the color from black to something else on the curves.



Keep in mind that the brochure is going to be split down the middle, since it opens up as a gate. Basically it is a sheet a paper in landscape, then there are two flaps one on the right and one on the left and then a middle section.
Do you guys think the text will be fine to read, eventhough the brochure will be cut in the middle???

[matt2364]

I think this blue color is more suiting, and also matches the rest of the brochure.

I like the black myself
