Okay. Here’s the deal. I need your help, if you care to give it.
You see, I’m trying to figure out this cover design for my little ebook and well, I can’t figure it out. Therefore, I need you decisive folk to click and vote for the one you think oughta be the cover. Normally, I would come up with three pieces of artwork but since I have three different cover designs, let’s pretend I followed best practices for the design world. After all, I did come up with more sketches you didn’t see, so I did all the work in the background.
Now, just so I don’t get on your nerves or nothing, if I haven’t already, I won’t make mention of voting for nothing else until I ask you to vote for something else. I would reward you in some way but I’m planning on a yard sale next year and I can’t pull nothing out to give you ’til I see what sells first. I’m all about industry and whatnot, if you catch my drift. I will, however, make up your time in the future, if you call clicking a button all in half a second taking up time. You let me know and I’ll catch you on the rebound.
Anyhow, make yourself useful while you’re here and vote. And grab yourself some punch and knock yourself out. (See how funny, and ultimately, lame I can be on the spot?)
Thank you, folks.

I'm an artist who's writing,mothering, blogging and doing a few other things under the sun. I buy toilet paper 99.9% of every trip I make to the grocery store. I'm a people watcher, so I know you're here but drop me a line anyway.
Can’t go wrong with any but full color cover without white upper/lower space better with whatever pic
So far, everyone agrees with you.
I agree too.
Oh, I’m in the majority. I guess you already have a winner! Good luck!
Hard for me to decide, so I thank you all for your responses.
I can see why it’s hard for you to decide!
I’m just gonna go with whatever the vote says. Sometimes we can be our own worst critic.
Definitely No. 3…the graphics in the upper…contained. The art work…unobstructed.
You good Missy TM…..!!
Thanks. I’m anxious to bring this first publication process to a close but patience is a virtue, right?
*Patience is a virtue* repeat from *
Smiling….
I was having a hard time choosing between 1 & 3 but I went with 3. I think it’s because the lettering on 1 reminded me a little of junior fiction fonts.
Yeah, now that mention the junior fiction fonts, it does come off that way.
#2 goes well with the title……
I favored the second image too but will plead the 5th. We shall see how it goes.
I have a contest every year and my readers vote on the winner……http://lobotero.com/2012/12/11/2012-anal-ocity-award-nominees/
try it! You will like it! LOL
On my way over to check it out now.
I see very little difference between #1 & #3, except image placement and your name, so I choose #1. It’s usually best to go with your first result in these matters Twin.
I’m gonna go with the outcome of the voting and not pull a George Bush/Florida thing.
Thanks for reblogging.
My pleasure, it’s a way for you to get more votes and a result you can live with.
Great artwork by the way.
Thank you.
Reblogged this on The ObamaCrat.Com™ and commented:
Let’s all help Ms. Tosh Fomby choose her cover artwork for her novel. Visit her blog to vote!!!
I love all three but number 2 is my favorite. I think it’s a little bit naughty, but the facial expressions are just a delight!
Yep. And I like naughty.
Totsy, I love #3! Something about the slanted text gives adds to the vibe! The art work is fantastic, sister!
Thank you, Bella. Looks like No. 3 is a hit.
Totsy, I also like 3 but I like the way your name looks on 1. Stands out more when it’s centered and no other copy around it, at the bottom.
I did wonder if my name should be integrated that way. So, I’ll move it away from the title, Thanks.
It was a tough choice for me between 1 and 3. I prefer the slanted text but, like the comment above, I like your name standing on its own. How about #2 with the other artwork? Whatevah … they are all, like you, mighty fine!
Thank you.
I’ll separate my name from the title. May end up using the 2nd image for one of the stories in the book.
You definitely don’t wanna go with #2.
No?
I am not in the majority as I love 2, but all are grand.
Thanks, Valentine. Looks like No. 2 is catching up.
Hi Totsymae,
My PC froze, damn it all. I voted for #1 but was trying to change to #3. Sorry! I definitely like the image better for #1 and #3 but think #3 is the best because the graphics are so much more visually captivating. Great artwork, of course
.
Best of luck with the book!!

Thanks, and for voting, Coco.
All the best, Tots! I’ve voted.
Thanks, Somer. Take care.
I went back and forth btw #1 and #3, voted #1 but I really love #3.
