I too find the typography VERY off-putting - I think it spoils the cover - sometimes less is more and a smaller title/author's name (IMO) would be much better here.Susan Parkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16690588870636051189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3991760003960066476.post-25500391690222139942010-03-03T12:30:28.460+02:002010-03-03T12:30:28.460+02:00Jamie, so true.

I can see what you mean about the lettering, it completely obscures the mounting storm (until I saw the full image I just assumed they were ordinary clouds). An awesome piece of art, just a shame most of it can't be seen :(Jamie Gibbshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15168603412367448706noreply@blogger.com
