Word Frame becomes Cloud Frame

I got my first chance to do a wire frame with out the wires. While working on it, I realized that while relative importance and position on the page could still be communicated with without lots of boxes and lines, the relationships of nearby things could not.

So I added clouds. Clouds can be color coded to show relationships with like items. They can also characterize the amount of space something may be expected or desired to take up on the page, because that does not always follow logically from an items importance. For instance, I knew that sponsor logos would take up a certain vertical space, but that did not mean I felt they were more important then a preview section that may take up the same amount of space and thus use a larger font in this system.

Below are the thumb nails of the result and what it looks like without the clouds. Clicking on each will show the pdf of the full sized result.

This has been passed on to a consultant to do the design and build the templates. So this is the real test, does it communicate well.
