Contest Brief

Hello,

I think this should be pretty easy for good designers. I've got this image attached, which I'd like to use for my fourth book of Montana history. You can see the other three books I've got on Amazon, right here:

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00C4Z77RI
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00FDRDO8K
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00KFNURGY/

I need this cover to look like those covers, mainly with the way the font and text is laid out. You can find the original image that I found here:

Here are the book details:

Title: Hustlers and Homesteaders
Subtitle: A History of Montana, Volume Four
Author: Greg Strandberg

Thanks a lot, please ask if you have any questions!

    I studied the 3 new designs you liked. I wanted my new entries to stand out and be what you are wanting; I hope I did it! I paid special attention to keep your name highly visible and standing out, while keeping the signature on the original artwork that is the cover. #111 & #112 Thanks for taking the time to look at all my work!

      Just saw some more room for improvement while I was looking at this from afar...then I decided to improve some small details too such as the red and green casts getting removed from the horses...and the artist's name looked like it needed to be cleared up some too. Hope this is good for you; I'm really trying to meet your desired look. Don't be afraid to tell me any criticism...I can take it! Thanks again for looking! #113

    The trick is matching the title and author colors so they match and are still readable.

    #31 does a great job making that author name work!

    Right now I think #8 is closest to what I'm going for. The text really needs to match what the other books have. Having the same color for author and title is good too, thanks!

    The winning entry will have the best text layout, with none of the picture getting cut off. I'll be interested to see what you do to get the author name to show up well. Good luck, and thanks!

    I think the title text will need to be black as the white title color just isn't coming in too good against that tan sky
