Two covers created by KBoarder Kalen O'Donnell. The only differences are the colors of the author name and the title's 2nd word. This was from Kalen's pre-mades. He hadn't posted it yet, and he showed it to me. I think it's a terrific cover, but I'm unsure which color set would be better. I have a preference, but I'd like to hear the opinions of others.Thanks.

Here's Kalen's website:

Recommended. He's talented and easy to work with.

My wife just weighed in. She prefers the second one.

Wow, those are beautiful covers. I think the 2nd one. Not by much, though.

I like the gold author name, but not the red to gold fade in the title on that one. So... maybe a mesh of both?

 

[Patty Jansen]

I prefer the blue one. In the orang lettering, the planet disappears at thumbnail size. Otherwise, it's an awesome cover.

No.2 with a little less dark orange/red. White/blue works too. Nice cover.

I *like* the blue one better, but the second is more eye-catching, and probably the better choice.

Visually I like the 1st one more, but the contrast on the 2nd one makes the names stand out more which is nice.

On a side note I love how the word Annie follows the path of the orbit and still flows into the rest of the title.

 

[Saul Tanpepper]

The right one works all the way around for me. Definitely draws my eye more than the one on the left, which doesn't have enough color contrast and seems colder.

 

[SBJones]

I find the title easier to read on the first one with blue/white letters.  I had to squint on the thumbnail of the orange one to read it.

 

[Shei Darksbane]

I like the blue one. But I'm super partial to blue.

 

[Sever Bronny]

Personally, I'm partial to the second one But an excellent cover regardless!

 

[Melody Simmons]

The second one catches the eye faster with its brighter colours...

 

[Jordan Rivet]

I definitely like the blue one better. It looks YA to me, whereas the black one looks like general SF.

 

[David Dire]

I like the second one. I can't see the word to attract my interest further on the smaller all blue one. On a side note, in the thumbnails the Earth looks like it's part of her shoulder and arm... which may just be me. That's not a negative by the way, just an item of interest.

I like the second one best because the color contrast pops. I'm struggling with the orange/yellow gradient, though. It kind of reminds me of Powerpoint graphics... A blue/red contrast might work.

 

[Janeal Falor]

I like the blue one a lot better. It looks really eye catching and professional.

 

[Stephanie Marks]

I like the blue. While the second one has great contrast the first one just FEELS better to me.

Opinions are split almost evenly. For now, I'm going with the blue cover. Don't tell my wife. If you see the cover revert in my sig to the second one, it means that Miss Judy has prevailed again.

If sales don't pick up, I might try the orange color.
