3-Ring binding is a good option for books that must lie open flat. 3-Ring binding is available for 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" size books only.Unlike vinyl binders, 3-Ring binders are padded and allow for full-color printing, making them much more elegant than vinyl binders.

Plastic Comb Binding
Plastic comb binding is also used for books which must lie flat, such as manuals, how-to books, or workbooks.

Plastic Coil Binding

Plastic coil binding is yet another style that is ideal for books that must lie open flat. The main advantage of plastic coil binding is that the book can be folded in half. This binding is similar to wire binding except it's made of more durable plastic.

Wire-O Binding

A Wire-O binding holds the covers and pages of a document firmly in place by a double-loop wire inserted through holes drilled in their left edges. All of the document's pages lay flat when opened, can turn easily through 360°, and stay in perfect registration with adjoining pages.

Saddle Stitching

In saddle stitching - the way most booklets, magazines, catalogs, and calendars are bound - wire staples hold the piece together. A machine drives then through its backbone fold to the centerfold, where they clench. A saddle-stitched printed piece lies almost flat when opened, a convenience for readers.

Perfect Binding

To produce a perfect-bound document, the piece's folded signatures are gathered together in page sequence, clamped together, and placed in a machine that slices about 1/8" off their left edges. Then roughers mill the newly sliced sheet edges to prepare them for gluing. Finally, the edges receive an adhesive application and adhere to a backing.

Tape Binding

This process places a cloth strip of adhesive tape down the bind edge of the book and wraps around about half an inch onto the cover front and back.

Processss!

This was my first printed and assemble zine..set and all ready for Chris Or Brian.

Matthew 16:18-19 are the scriptural references Catholics give to support this. "And I say unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock, I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give unto thee the keys of the Kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shalt be loosed in heaven."

Basically the front page comes from this passage from one of the earliest books of the bible. So i decided to create a visual outta it and came up with the above visual

. Elders of the church were known as bishops, and by the close of the third century; each congregation of any size had a bishop as its head

So i basically took a bit of the history of the catholic faith and tried to incorporate it into my design..

Got some proper feed back and i'm working towards it..:)

Rebel Girl

I tried searching for catholic or religious type of zines, but i really could find any..this was the closest i could get to one..and this unfortunately is an anti-Christ one..Didnt pay much to what the content said..but more to how all the information was complied..found it quite detailed..which was not the angle i was planning on taking..but still...and interesting find.

The Start..

Well basically after going through most of the zines , i decided to make my first attempt..manage to get some ideas down..had a lot of trouble with this brief..but i decided to take on the Catholic Community as a Whole..from the start, having a short beginning of how it came about and venturing it to the most important teachings to the charity and community work done.
