UPDATE: Have re-tweaked the image to further degrade the appearance of the boat.
Another headline from The Guardian, this time it’s a front page story. With ships. Carrying booty. On the sea. And maybe pirates? I hope there’s pirates. Arrrr.

More playing with pictograms and headlines today, but trying it on a background related to the headline story for more visual effect. Another story from the Guardian newspaper, this time about a serial killer in Canada. Note to self, must choose happier headline next time.
