Also WTF is with the revolver on all of these 2+2 books lol

[/ QUOTE ]

It would be totally cool if you could put that revolver in the kings hand!

Or a miniature one in one of the hearts.

Hi Mason,

Is there any way 2+2 could provide a high-resolution image of the revolver used on the classic 2+2 covers (HEPFAP, 7CSFAP, SSHE, etc.)?

That way, anyone considering a design involving a revolver could do so knowing that the image being used is the "official" 2+2 revolver and not worry about copyright issues and so forth.

The subtitle should be "Smell the Glove". The title and subtitle should appear on the spine only, and the cover should be solid black.

I agree with you, although solid black might not be the best thing, I would like a black cover though, it looks cooler. But it might not attract poker players

Edit: Ah well just wanted to make the black cover [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

or


Obviously these are made in 2minutes (hence the sudden transition from the vegas (black) to the cover black,didn't notice this after I uploaded them) [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Here is a concept I had, revisions to come.I want to try and incorporate bright colors like the other 2+2 books, but I don't know about that green. Any suggestions for color schemes? Next revision I will put more thought into the text as well. Feedback will be appreciated. Thanks.

I like the look even with the green TBH, also there's a typo in "advice". I'm sure a lot of colors will work.

That's a sharp look though.

Revision: Changed font, made the green a little more subtle, and added more detail to the chips. If I had the skill I would add a giraffe smoking a cigar to it.

Also, I think the full title for the first book should read:

Professional No-Limit Hold ’em for Professionals: Volume I
Professionally Learn to Think like a Professional and Play Like a Professional

[/ QUOTE ]

This made me laugh hard for about 15 minutes. Seriousely!

Sit 'n Go.

Also, I think it should be Colin Moshman with one L. Looks better.

The font of the subtitle is too tall and is too close to the title.

Hang on a minute! Why am I giving advice to the competition!

-Cheers

This cover makes me want to play NL while sipping martinis with the Rat Pack. Dig it.
