I don't think she looks uncomfortable. I think she's lovely. The worst thing about the cover is that it doesn't really tell me much about the book. I think it might be a paranormal romance, but I have no way to know for sure.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8175053073870042983.post-4990441915774057962011-04-14T03:27:59.093-07:002011-04-14T03:27:59.093-07:00Thanks for submitting, Annie!Thanks for submitting, Annie!S.J.

The model does seem nervous, as though she might be in an angsty YA novel, and the text is difficult to read. It might work better to use a solid color behind the text.Colette Dukehttp://www.coletteduke.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8175053073870042983.post-30691353923556444172011-04-13T18:28:58.856-07:002011-04-13T18:28:58.856-07:00Looks kind of like bad special effects from the 70...Looks kind of like bad special effects from the 70s.

And she seems to unbalance the image. Maybe she's riding a bit too high.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8175053073870042983.post-63753170739491265572011-04-13T15:07:57.150-07:002011-04-13T15:07:57.150-07:00I think that the cover needs a little bit more Pho...I think that the cover needs a little bit more PhotoShop work.<br /><br />I see why you do the shift, green to black, in the title text however it make the title hard to read. <br /><br />The reason why your woman's image doesn't look quite right is because the light for the background is coming from one direction and her light is from the other. <br /><br />I would guess that the genre is romantic fantasy.Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11882910901554365995noreply@blogger.com
