Another New Cover Design

I've been working with an author on his cover design, and gave him a couple of options. This cover, to the left, is one he didn't select, so I've added it to the "Need a Book Cover?" page. I would submit it to SPBC, but they don't allow you to customize the title the way it would be here. They have a set list of fonts to choose from and I wouldn't be allowed to do the drips or anything. So it qualifies for the page on this blog, instead.

You may have noticed that the image of the wall has watermarks--I haven't purchased the stock photos yet, and wouldn't be doing that until someone actually buys the cover. That's another advantage of not putting it on SPBC. They require that you purchase the stock photos in advance.

It would, of course, be possible to alter the cover in different ways--changing the shape of the framing shadow, for instance.

What do you think of this design? Do you like it as it is, or would you change something?
