Contest $50 eBook cover and website header design

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by rednimer, Jan 4, 2012.

    Hi,

    I am having a contest to see who can design the best ebook cover and matching website header.

    The ebook will be about canning, and the title will be Practical Canning - A Preppers Guide

    The colors will be kind of earthy, like brown, green and orange.

    Amazon is a great place to get some ideas for the book cover.

    I will need all layered psd's of the images created

    The website header image should be similar colors, and similar font, but the image will not need to be the same as the ebook cover.

    For starters feel free just submitting the ebook, and the header image should be easy to create after the ebook is chosen.

    I will pay for the contest via paypal

    Please let me know if you have any questions, and I will try to be as responsive to your input as possible.

    Thanks, and I look forward to the entries.

    This looks pretty good, and is along the line of what I was envisioning. I would like to see maybe another image, and maybe an alternate font

    I'm looking for something that illustrates canning on the cover, and it's hard to see the cover with the book at that angle

    This looks pretty good. I like the little sparkle on the C

    I would like to see a spot for the author name though, and the name is practical canning, so the non fancy jars fit well.

    I would also like to see a little more of the image, and less of the header of the image

    This one looks good too, nice and simple, and not too fancy. Would like to see a different image that looks similar, but some variety of jars of food.

    Not bad, but the top is missing something. I don't like the angle of the jars either, they seem like they are staring at me or something.
