I like the transparency of the font partly because you can see the beautiful mouth of the model and partly because the transparency gives it an insubstantial look that fits an other-worldly character. But having said that, they're both excellent. Wow.

The font used on the top design reflects that ancient age and heritage, thereby instilling mystique and suggesting age-old horror. In addition, the lettering covers more of the background man's mouth, thereby suggesting secrets.<br /><br />AEAnthonynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7021364414249897766.post-69845464304936338472009-06-30T18:27:19.028-07:002009-06-30T18:27:19.028-07:00I like the first one.

Both of them look dark and sinister, I just think the bottom one fits much better with the story synopsis.

(2) The title and your name are much clearer in the bottom font - a quicker draw for the reader.<br /><br />While the top font clearly shouts HORROR, so does the title; I don't think the less elaborate font detracts it.<br /><br />Happy B-Day!LINDA FAULKNERhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08059741905691302335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7021364414249897766.post-5483066689171411782009-06-30T17:25:59.753-07:002009-06-30T17:25:59.753-07:00I think the first one suits the title better than ...I think the first one suits the title better than the one on bottom.

The guys mouth is yum, but that's not what the cover is supposed to do. The top one, the font isn't my fave, but I am looking at it, the title, rather than trying to see past it. <br /><br />HugsJude Masonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14067166768734750026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7021364414249897766.post-68298714889961050652009-06-30T15:13:23.947-07:002009-06-30T15:13:23.947-07:00The first/top version is best.
