It's too cluttered, and I'm not a fan of the colors.

im not a big fan of any of these so far. theres too many colors and stuff. too flashy. also, anything that says "Ed Miller's" sucks. i dont like anything that has "real" images on the front cover. HoH was pushing it but it worked as he has the identifiable face.

my suggestion to you designers is something very similar to feeny's book. i have no photoshop skillz so im not even gonna try. just stay away from real images. they are tacky.

nagoo,

yours is the best so far, but as someone else said, the colors arent that good. its the black. maybe try a grey or something.

How can you say that?

This is obviously the best entry thus far.

if you could get a more cartoony picture for the middle this would be ok, ed's name isnt big enough.

also, i see a lot of "by ed miller". dont put by.

I totally agree!
But there are more funny things in that cover.
I like the airplane, battleship, and jeep.
Also, the bit at the bottom left corner is kind of funny.

I can't stop laughing at it.
Nice job glitch.

your second attempt is much better, but the guys finger nail bothers me. if i was going to publish a ton of copies of this book, i would want the finger nail on the cover to be trimmed. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
