A rectangular slate plate printed in full colour with your photograph and a beer joke, in four rectangular sizes. It is the shape that suits the candid pictures this design wants.
A joke about beer usually depends on what is happening in the photograph: a garden, a grill, a glass, other people. A rectangle keeps all of that, where a heart or a square would crop it down to a head. For a design where the image carries half the humour, this is the shape to take.
A tall rectangle puts the image above and the line beneath, which is how a caption works. That arrangement gives the joke its timing: the picture is seen first and the wording confirms it, rather than both arriving at once as they do on a square.
The image is printed in full colour onto the slate rather than engraved into it. A charcoal ground takes the glare out. Everything prints deeper and softer.
The stone is split rather than milled. Edges are riven; no two plates match. An ordinary plate stand suits it. The stone also stands on its own.
The four sizes are different proportions rather than one shape enlarged, so the photograph should choose: the tall one suits a standing figure and the medium an ordinary snapshot. A compressed copy looks fine on a phone and poor on stone. The heart and square versions of the same joke are made in their own sizes.
Candid pictures suit this design and posed ones fight it. A photograph taken at a barbecue, in a shed, or halfway through saying something sits inside a beer joke comfortably; a studio portrait inside the same artwork reads as two gifts stuck together. If the only picture available is a formal one, the plain rectangle plate is the better choice.
The square is the version to take if several people have to appear, since a rectangle still trims a row at the sides. All three shapes carry the same joke and the same wording underneath it. The difference is only how much photograph survives the crop, and that is worth settling first.
The photograph is sublimated onto the slate face. For a faded original, Colour Enhancement is $1.99 per image.
