Hi everyone!
I’m going to re-release my two relationship books as one book and do some updating to the text (I am older and wiser–think Yoda!). 😉
I had insomnia the other night, like always, and threw together some VERY low fidelity ideas. The fonts aren’t great, the photos aren’t perfect, these are the most BASIC of mock-ups. But I wanted to see what you guys liked the most so I could focus my attention on which one people were most drawn to.
I don’t want to waste time working on all of them for hours, then do this, if there are certain ones that no one likes.
Now, the good part of a poll is that it’s anonymous, so you can be totally honest and I won’t know who you are and even if I did, I promise I wouldn’t yell. I need honesty, so one of the options will be that you don’t like any of them.
Any help or suggestions (comments) would also be very appreciated! Like, “Move the text there” or “Change the color” or “Like the pic, hate the font” etc…
Thank you!
Now, here for a barrage of pictures, then the poll will be at the bottom of the page. You can pick up to 4 of them as your favorites. 🙂 XOXOXO
Option 1:
Option 3:
Option 4:
Nothing says “You Sound Like An Idiot” when you get the notification that there’s a poll to be considered and conducted business with, so as you are waiting for it to come up across the computer screen, you are screaming “POLL! POLL! POLL!!”

Hey Jedi. I know it’s been a while. Been doing a lot of stuff of late and have changed some of my tablets.
I went for 3 as I like the drawn aspect of it. With the photos, I feel they are too personal but I think that’s because I know they are you and hubby.
The drawn one also looks at more squiffly minded reactions from following what’s in the book.
My thoughts anyway. Looking forward to the new versions when they come out.

Thank you soooooooooooo much for the feedback. I’m in desperate need of objective opinions!!! And as the amazing photographer you are, you opinion holds much sway with me.
Now, as for your “Brit speak” what on earth does this mean, “squiffly minded reactions”? I think I can intuit what it means, but I just want to make sure. Brit speak is so much more fun than Arizona speak! 😉
Thanks, honey!

No script. Color on a light background works so much better. I am of the school that readability is better than artistic flair.

Hey there, Tony! Thank you! Readability is critical, I totally agree. These were literally just middle of the night, super low fidelity mock-ups that were just a starting place. But your suggestion is WELL taken and very appreciated. And you are super right. 🙂 Thank you!!!

Thank you, lovely!!! I like #1 a great deal too. 1 and 3 are my favorites. 🙂 I think I’ll put one on the front cover and one on the back cover. The voting is dead even between those two.
🙂 Thanks for the input. You rule! XOXOXO

I like #3 the best, but the font has to be much LARGER. The 1st script font was hard to read, yet a good size. Remember that you need to think about how it will look in a thumbnail cover because that’s how many people will see it at Amazon, iBooks, or whatever bookstore you chose to put it at.

Well howdy, ma’am! How are you? 🙂 It’s a tie between 1 and 3 right now. As for the fonts, yes, definitely need a lot of work. These were just rough draft mockups from my insomniac brain that I didn’t want to invest too much time into before getting people’s gut reactions. It’s awesome that the two I like best are also the ones that most people seem to like best.
I’m going to work on it over the weekend and mess around with some fonts, then do another poll. 🙂 I’d love your opinion on that one too! 🙂 Hope you are well. XOXOXOXX
