    always K.I.S.S. - also, don't feel obligated to use every possible photoshop effect at once.

    oh man... seriously, ur design will lowering ur conversion rates! i suggest u dont use that cover! :confused::mad:

    no offense, but frankly speaking.. your cover looks bad!

    try to spend some money either for:

    1- High Impact Photoshop Actions - u can get a better shapes with this. for examples: www.coveractionpro.com
    2- Hire highly professional designer to design ur ecover

    U can try to improve ur design, but a learning curves need u to waste a lot of time! just dont bother it

    remove the shadow, if you are using photoshop, merge down the layer and then apply reflect

    I don't want to be rude or anything but that design is bad. And if the design of the cover is bad (the first thing the user will see) than he won't be interested in the content.
    Just like others sayd, hire a good designer.
    P.S. I like NaIdz design.

    It's not that bad, yes it could be better, but for a short report it might be ok. I am trying to learn how to make ebooks on Gimp, but haven't found out how to do it yet, so it is better than what I can do at this time.

    i think the word "trick" should also be with a darker color.

    Use a nice clean font and throw in an image ... the cover of your ebook can make or break your sales. It's worth spending some time on it and getting it to look nice. Don't ever use that awful font again! :p

    Your current ebook cover really need a professional cover designer. well, there is an old sayings "Don't judge the ebook by it's cover" .. I mean if the content is good then that would pull the ebook cover from 2 to 8 maybe?

    I think it's pretty good! :)

    But not good enough..
    You might be able to get an designer to do it for as low as $10 on dp! :)

    Ya it doesn't look overly professional. It looks good, but I wouldn't look at it and say professional book.

    You NEED a designer. Good try though. Just use the design by Kerosene, its pretty good.
