The only thing we need to do now is make the background some color other than black, at least for the CD! :-) For some reason, dark colors look very muddy on covers (we've tried them and they don't work :-( ). I think it's a limitation of the printing process - you lose too many of the contrasting colors and the whole thing comes out just looking really dark. If the daemon was a bit brighter red, and the background was some color like light blue it would come out looking a lot nicer! What do you think? Talk to Ellen here - she's the one doing the final production on all of this and will know better how it's going to finally look on the poster. But this looks really, really good! We're almost there - don't give up on us yet! :-) Also, can we get the original EPS file? This way we can play with different backgrounds and contrasts as we print it out and look at the results! Thanks! Jordan
