eBook Anthology Cover

Do you like A, B, or C?

You can click on an image to bring it front and center, then easy switch between the two. Thanks for your comments!

UPDATE - Thanks to some great feedback I've simplified the cover. Check out C at the bottom of this post.

    Hey Dan, of the two I think B looks better.

    Thanks guys! I agree. I think I need to redo the stars, make them look better but I started with A, then thought - this needs something more. More detail. Seeing a cover without some kind of image or illustration used these days is pretty rare. Thanks again!

    B, but...neither? The fonts really don't go together for me (too many of them, too), and the banner clashes (with itself and with the rest of the cover, imo); also way too busy with text (and textual decoration), overall, I think.

      Thanks for your feedback. I think you're right. I think I'll lose the banner and decorations and try to simplify it as much as possible and see how that looks.

    I prefer B but the banner on the top of both doesn't stand out like it should. It's almost distracting rather than pull the cover together.

    But I like where you're going with it. :-)

      Thanks Jay! I agree, I'm going to try to take as much off as possible including the banner. Thanks for chiming in! I appreciate it.
