Thanks to feedback received on the format of these “New Covers For Old” posts, this entry has been redone in an entirely different style at great expense and at the last minute. Just grab the carat on the right and slide it to the left to reveal the newer cover.

Your feedback on the format is appreciated.
THIS is way awesome, Nathan! (Speaking of expense, I did actually offer to donate for this, y’know….)
Seriously, it is so much better. Easier to navigate and use, no clicking/new tab, yadda. I very much appreciate it, I do. 🙂
Excellent job! It’s so easy to compare the covers now
Oh my goodness, this is amazing! Thank you!
Thank you for the “sliding reveal” widget update. Lovely.
I like it a lot, even though some of the updated covers seem excessively cropped (e.g. a new version of “The Fallen Odyssey” lacks a part of the title), maybe because they have different aspect ratios than the old ones. But neverth’less I’d be happy to see more New Covers posts in this format.
Agreed.
Yes, the plugin takes the proportion of the first image as being the format for both of them.
It’s really not much of a disadvantage since the cover can be seen under a link anyway.
Much nicer.
One for the Road and Tokens of Promise have done well in their redesign 🙂
To those of us who surf with Javascript and all that other junk turned off, it looks like a two column spreadsheet with the text “Original Cover” and “Updated Cover” in each of the cells instead of numbers. There are no pictures at all.
I have to turn all that stuff on in order to offer critique (or to whine about not seeing any pictures, as the case may be), and when I did that, the pictures magically appeared and the wipe effect is really awesome. (Am not likely to change any surfing practices, though.)
So sad the Raptor classic now has all the charisma of a textbook.
A textbook about mating with the Raptors of the Old West.
