The Name of the Book

Ok people, please finalize on the book title.
I asked you people to send me pics (real pics, not existing work!), no one did. I asked for a sketch or something, no one bothered. Osman called me today and was upset at the fact that no one is actually doing anything about the book cover. I even asked you people to set up a meeting so that we can discuss about the book cover, no replies, no responses (listen, eid or exams is not an excuse that you can use for not sending responses and I told you people that this book cover thing cannot be sorted out on the net!). Even though Osman had his thesis put up, he is still calling me regularly as to what the situation is. Do you people even care what should be on the book cover (except for 'oh i like such covers, let's put that!')?
Now, the least you people can do is come up with a title and a book blurb. If you have suggestions, post it and let the whole group decide. By the way, i'm taking the 'bol' logo out, I dont think we're worthy of it. I swear, once this book cover thing is over, I'm not visiting this blog ever again (I think I can miss out on stuff like 'oh, its cold in lahore' or 'oh, so you were her friend in school'). Shees. I hope I've made my point, I've been nice and paitent for long (for God sakes, a month, and you cant even decide what to name this book???).

listen jibran no need to get worked up dude!the thing i am (and i think most of the bol ppl) are not very artistic to come up with an excellent piece of work and like you said we dont even have the vaguest idea of what kind of book requires which kind of aesthetics. so there you go you told our predicament yourself... and thats why we appointed you osman and sehba for this.all we can do is make suggestions, u guys have to come up with the cover in the end.i know i didnt make any suggestions but thats not because i didnt think about it. i did but i couldn't come up with anything mentionable.keep your head cool jibran.
