Would making the 1 in the buttom right corner blue/red in the manner of the suit be dumb Gonso ?

Probably not, but if anything I think I'm going to fade it a little bit, MAYBE change the font. I'm too short on work time to do anything more than quick tweaks. I also noticed I accidentally left the suits opaque white - they're supposed to be textured, so I'll have to fix that.

Away from the home PC now, so I can't do any work until morning.

ama - those are very nice and would certainly grab my attention if I was at a bookstore with no prior knowledge of the authors or 2+2.

gonso - I also really like what you've done with your colors. These are some incredible entries by all imo.

Glad you made it before the deadline, that
blue version is very pleasing to look at.

Gonso likes the titles separate, I'm on the fence

I like the look, ama, but I think the font type for "no-limit hold 'em" should be changed. Its kind of distorted and doesnt match the rest of the design which is clean and sharp.
Thats my opinion at least.

I really, REALLY like Gonso's light colored books with the red or blue king and writing

the only issue I see is the king at the top of the side binding...it's not consistent with other 2p2 books
