i put some texture/color in the handbill style (just front for now). i'm not completely happy with the texture yet.

Try out some gun shots on the hand bill (chg the texture though).

What I mean is bullet holes not "pictures of guns."

And, maybe "fray" the corners some to give an older, used look maybe.

Wow, there are a lot of great entries here!
I like the look of books with black covers. Since there were no entries using black, I made one myself.














Im an amateur (both in GFX making and poker).
The images were made with Adobe Photoshop CS2.
The original files have a resolution of 300. Height = 8,5 inches, width = 12 inches (front & back = 5,5, spine = 1).

Hi Sharagoz,

Your cover looks like a Tool album cover, which is a good thing.

There is another in progress, unless I don't make the deadline.

Revisions: I re-designed the King by adding his beard and removed some of the suits and played with some of the text elements. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Roxy, if there was a way to make the all-white words 'No-Limit Hold'em' stand out, with some kind of border or shadow or inoffensive 3d effect or something, the faces might seem less obtrusive. Looking at my books here, all those with white lettering have a border or a plain, dark background (or both).
