And apparently random clip-art spills out as you open this door.

I’m no expert, but I think a decent font and title could’ve really made this a decent cover; I kinda like the image.

The clipart? The toucan? The oddball little woman in the corner, or…?

Lol, the actual door image. Get rid of all the clipart, give it a good font, and maybe even a bleed around the edges and it wouldn’t look half bad, imo.

Thank God. Thought you’d lost your mind for a moment there. 🙂
