Do you mean, 'how do I get some cool work in this field???'
- iamlo0
well no i just wonder who actually does that stuff. through the publishing company or strictly freelance, project-to-project basis.

It normally goes through the publishing company and then they outsource to freelancers etc. Some designs are done inhouse, but think the majority is outside work.
Authors i think will pass on ideas, but you'll have to read the book anyway to get an idea for the front

Penguin seems to do it's series work inhouse based on guidelines.
