Awesome. Do you need anything from me to send it to your publisher? Or did you want me to link it to your other examples?

Link it to the other examples, but I'll also highlight this one as my fave!

Pre-ordering now. If you need a technical reviewer, I'm in (if only I can read it early)!

Really nice work, Cindy. I know it's the background, but the blue really grabs me as the breakthrough point for this design from all the ones that came before it.

Cindy, this is great and the best one I've seen so far (I looked at all the ones from the design school as well.) Fantastic work!

Tara, I still think you should consider changing the "maxing" text, but the layout and format of this cover is beautiful.

Nice job!
As an aside, I must've read too much lowercase L recently... I keep seeing whuffle.

Love it! :) You are a true talent in expressing the concept in such a simple way. And as always, lovely colors too.

Everything is fine except for the 'Target'. Old school and bit violent for the theme.
Can Target be substituted by a fruit perhaps? Or some collective victory symbol.

Yay Cindy!

Love the way Tar's name is depicted.
The subtle shadow in the bullseye is great too.

So has this one won?! Far and away the best, clearly waaaay better than the pub's. Only thing I would lose is the RSS logo on the computer screen.
