Coffee Table Candy

@Bjarni — "Fingerprint" is one of my favourite books too! Coincidentally, I reviewed it here not too long ago http://designersbookshelf.com/graphic-design-books/fingerprint-art-of-using-handmade-elements-in-graphic-design-book-review.php
@Scarlett — Can't go wrong with Banksy's Wall and Piece. Clever and funny. The guy is just about due for another book though don't you think?
Some recommendations...
I don't know about you guys but sometimes I like to do some light reading at the coffee table too. Perhaps Debbie Millman's "Look Both Ways" would go down well? It has some wonderful short stories and musings on design. Also, Bruno Munari's "Design As Art" is another short essay-type design book with observations on Graphic, Visual and Industrial design.
She said yes!

@Bjarni - her comment was "YOUR CAR... It's turned into a"
Sorry Blind
Thanks Taku - That's some good advice. I'll concentrate on the photographer and a gimmick like a photobooth or a petting zoo.

Adobe Creative Cloud

Like what Jems says, I could imagine Adobe would like to push everyone to the cloud for better management / piracy control.
Dave, older versions are good until you hit the "cant open" a file because it is one version newer then what you have. I would think with all the technology that Adobe has they could/would have the ability to be more user friendly when it comes to other customers who have bought their software.
My upgraded history goes CS1 > CS3 > CS6. From what I understand is that now if you miss an upgrade path you have to start from scratch in regards to buying the product in full which makes the cloud option more viable.
Travel back in time and redesign your website like your uncles sisters friends son pet guinea pig : )
