Ha Ha, that’s funny. With red shoes to match. I just have to say those are some of the most deformed legs I’ve ever seen. It looks like her but cheeks are on the back of her mid-thighs.

Actually I’d have to say this *is* nearly the worst on the site. It looks like the bastard child of two completely unrelated print runs, where the artwork for a lightweight thriller/romance somehow got all mashed up with the cheap’n’nasty cover of an out-of-date high-school math textbook.
2) [I have to type this so often, I might just make it a macro.] If you insist that one must be able to do better in order to criticize, then you have publicly forfeited your right to criticize:
– a restaurant meal, unless you are a chef
– an 18-wheeler’s driving, unless you have a CDL
– an athlete’s performance, unless you are a professional athlete (and a game strategy, unless you are a professional coach)
– a pop singer, unless you are a professional musician
– a movie, unless you are a member of the DGA
– an elected official, unless you hold public office…
What is it about all these covers with missing body parts? Heads, legs, upper and lower torsos?
I just don’t get it.
What is next to her? Floating blood?
Another trend in self published bad covers seems to be one half overdone, the other nearly blank. Balancing the overall composition isn’t considered?
If they had just stuck with the dame’s legs and gotten decent fonts this would have been an acceptable cover.
I thought it was a PSA for feminine hygiene projects.

Man, you pegged it. God, I HATED those text books!
You people are cruel. Can you do better?
A two-part response:
1) Yes. Here are a few book covers I’ve designed:
Arcane
Arcane II
Cross-Cultural Doctoring
The Golden Age of Crap
City of the Saints
The Demon Cross
Crecheling
It’s All About the Style
