Trace by a long shot. The first of the three covers with the blue chips looks like a futuristic british novel (hey I still love it, anything blue rocks)

Nagoos for a more classic twoplustwo look.

Trace, though, thats some freaking talent man. And no truer words have been spoken "game over, man, game over."

Wow man, fantastic stuff, are you a professional? Contest over.

I don't have the royalties to the photo, but I'm guessing any cover with a photo would need to be re-taken at a higher resolution anyway.

Hi Trace:

Since the contest is still going on, I need to respond here in a neutral manner.

The back cover will follow our standard design with the front cover's color scheme. That is on the bottom will be the bar code, the Two Plus Two logo, the small box recommending our web site, and the larger box with the Greg"Fossilman" Raymer quote. Above that will be the the large box with verbage describing the book and on the top will be the title and author's name. Also, somewhere on here will be the author's picture. Because of this I only requested that a front cover be designed.

Best wishes,
mason

Hi Nagoo:

It looks like we'll give out a few more shirts than originally planned. By the way, I wore the prototype to The Mirage tonight when I met with a Two Plus Two group, so maybe on one of these forums, probably B&M, there will be a comment on how it looked.

best wishes,
Mason

pretty good typesetting... but im pretty sure the images underneath are from Getty Images. In which case, they need to be purchased to avoid potential lawsuits.
