Reddit r/books Snoo

About a year ago Reddit was rolling out some changes. Included in that were changes to how subreddit header images worked. Now they needed to fit inside a circle and work on a small scale - Reddit was finally going mobile.

One of the subreddits I love the most is r/books. They’re a sub with over 13 million subscribers and are run by a very dedicated core volunteer mod team. This, however, was outside of their realm of ability. So, they opened up for submissions for a new graphic, and mine was chosen. I redesigned Snoo (reddit’s little alien guy) to be nose-deep in a book. It’s dead simple, is very clear even as small as the image gets on mobile, and I used their subreddit colors so they didn’t have to change anything except this image.
