My rough sketch of a ‘Kindle steampunk aesthetic’, trying to blend the old-school pritt-stick/photocopier look with crisp pixel-art fonts. Made directly in Photoshop
, then some simple ebook hand-coding would make the pages into an ezine for the Kindle ereader…
Very “hands on”, both in the layout and the need to hand-code the ezine containing the pages. So hopefully not too offensive in the eyes of paper n’ staples purists.
Update: for those who absolutely need searchability in their steampunk for some reason, this could be catered for by embedding a half-dozen keyword tags in small-sized type at the foot of each of the HTML pages that holds the images, and then greying out the font colour.
