Cover Art Text Panel

[bessyboo]

I’d like to get feedback from YOU on what y’all want to see covered in this panel! Does anyone have specific questions? Have a piece of cover art (by you OR anyone else) where you think the text is particularly good? Got any examples where you think it’s kind of lacking and would like tips on how to improve it (highly preferably by you or a friend who has given permission; I'd prefer consent for showing “bad” examples)? Tell me what you would like to hear/see!

Heya! I'm most interested in a sort of crash course on selecting complimentary fonts. And also in using text that doesn't conform to a horizontal line.

This! And maybe some guidelines/suggestions/encouragement on mixing fonts within a title.

God, feel free to use any of the covers I've made as bad examples. Like this or this or this as prime examples. :P

Maybe something about incorporating text into the design of a cover? As in, not just putting it somewhere where it doesn't clash with the pictures but actually using it as a part of the image?

Also, sorry I can't think of any particularly bad cover of mine, but if you ever want to use one of them as an example you have my permission.

seconding the "how to mix fonts in your title".

This is a bit late, but you can use my covers as bad examples. Here is one where I picked a font for the title that I liked but the placement looks less than professional:

Also feel free to use any of mine, good or bad.
