Invent a fake book of any genre (novel, biography, textbook, anything) and show us the cover.

I didn't see any special rule allowing the addition of text. You're all getting DQ'd!

You may:

add text to your entry or its border during editing, but watermarks, copyright statements, and other text that serves to identify the photographer are forbidden.

Even so, you could have photographed text and then inserted it. Because some of us figured out how to do that, they amended the ruleset to make it easier. :)

as for scores... 2 votes = meh. 4 votes = meh.

A lot of effort for a 5.5... :(

Wow, some really amazing stuff here, very impressive. Really looking forward to vote on this challenge!

As I expected, a load of great images.

You have rated 64 of 64 images (100%) in this challenge.
You have commented on 59 images (91%) in this challenge.
You have given an average score of 6.2656.

If you didn't get a comment, it's because your image didn't really use the editing set to give it a book cover feeling to me.

Well, I'm around 5.1 at 45 votes, so at least you have some (hopefully) high votes "in hand" ...

FWIW my other three entries are all under 5, so my sympathy meter is running toward the low side, though the empathy meter is off the charts.

Sitting at a 5.8, which is higher than it should be. So I'm ok with it.

Some very witty folk entered this and enjoyed viewing them but my voting kept getting interrupted by me creating plot lines for some of the books.
