Ditto. And after reading Nathan’s comment, I’m thinking “so, we’re just going to let the lion head thing go with a cut-and-paste tag?”

Very bad cutout on the lioness head, very fuzzy on the edges with bits missing.
And why would anyone still want to make it very difficult to read the book title through use of badly designed fonts?

This one is truly epic; so much fail, as they say. In addition to everything else, why is that shoulder armor floating over her left shoulder? My guess is that it’s hiding something in the original stolen artwork, but what?

Maybe Mr. Vitulvtg will chime in here and enlighten us!

Be careful! Correct pronouncing the name of a demon invokes its presence! That is why the wise pronounce Cthulhu as K’tulu, it avoids cataclysmic unpleasantness.

The official pronunciation of Joe Btfsplk also seems apt.
