Andor's Trail

It is getting complicated. There are a lot of good designs, and even more elements that could be used to create more variations. Overall, I like the design Nut picked out, but I think the leather Nyktos used is better, both the color and the texture. I think the font in the title needs to be a little bolder too.

I agree, I think maybe a little bolder if that's possible. A colored logo I think looks good but stands out too much. Maybe remove the shadow, dim the color a bit and pop the outline just a bit. I don't think the shadow of the logo works on the cover of a book. It's either too much color or too dim.

So, nyktos' leather background substituted in for the flat red one; and a better balance between the font for the name and the logo underneath, it sounds like people are saying.

Especially with the darker leather, a thin black line font isn't enough - it needs to have some depth and maybe a brighter color, even if only as highlight and or fill. A plus if that brighter color is also called out in the logo.

I partially agree. I think before we do that we should poll on the best individual elements, like the logo, the text, etc. Then give it a couple of days while we work on designs using the highest rated components. After that we vote on the best design.

Yeah, I think polling on individual aspects of the title would benefit us more. Otherwise, we will be running in circles.

Exactly!

Nyktos is the OP so only he is able to create poll in this thread. I hope he do so.

Cool.

A poll anytime soon? (Bump!)
