My First E-Book Cover - Ideas

[Jammsbro]

I wasn't sure whether in your book you spent any time debunking that sort of thing, in which circumstance an oblique pictorial reference to it would not be amiss, but otherwise not!
Sorry to be negative rather than helpful!

PS I like the concentric rings - they're a bit like the the ripples in a pond when a pebble falls in - expanding - like consciousness?

It wasn't negative at all. I can take care of the writing myself but I know that without a cover that attracts people's attentions no-one will read it, so I definitely need help in a critical sense.

You mentioned what it was about in another thread and it sounds really interesting, and that's the reason I mentioned that the pyramid image evokes negative connotations for me. Maybe stick with the layout of Lukin's but perhaps try a few different images.

I don't want to appear like I'm barging in on Lukin's or your work but this is the kind of thing I was thinking, using a more ambiguous image.

Not at all. That is excellent. My first two are sort of ambiguous as I was going for exactly the same thing. Could you darken the back image? The title is a little too similar contrast wise.

I'm going to feel bad if I get more than one excellent cover now

I couldn't darken the image too much without diminishing the quality but I made the god text a bit clearer. It's actually a public domain image of the sun.

I love watching this creative process -- the talent you guys have is outstanding. Maybe you can help me when I attempt to publish my e-book.

A little reminder: Don't forget the importance of the words "Birth" and "Death" -- the book is about those things as they pertain to God, so keep 'em big!

EDIT: I was the Associate Creative Director at the last "real" company I worked for. One of my jobs was to write and design all the magazine ads. They spent hundreds of thousands on what I created (), so it had to be good. (Not that I was under any pressure.) That's why I like the way you guys are so spot on in your designs and revisions!
