Default Need some opinions on a project

I'm suppose to get the look of this book called Uncle John's Unstoppable Bathroom Reader. The 1st one I think does well, but could you give me your opinions on what icons, images or whatever you think I should use or things I overlooked.

Thanks in advance.
Christina

I probably didn't explain this project very well. The above designs are actually the book cover designs I'm working on for this book.

I'd love love love.....(notice I didn't beg)....any feedback (positive or negative; advice or whatever).

i feel your jobs a little complicated, specially the types effects.

I prefer the first one.

the left one is the best, it looks like it could have been a snap shot from a TV show.

It really is a complicated cover design. Sitting down to figure out what it should look like was a killer.

Above is the book cover my client wants to get the look of, but I'm trying to go for a flashier look that gets attention. And I also don't want to look as if I ripped the other book design off.

What would you do with the bevel on the main words Toon? Should I just nix the bevel altogether?

I threw these together in about an hour, so they're not even close to being final.

Not sure what it would look like with just flat text or a smaller rounded bevel.

I'll try it non-beveled. My Client loves the first one too, but she's talking about changes, so maybe if my changes work, she'll approve.

Wow, in every places of the world, the clients say.... "Can you make a little change: HERE?"; And with these little change we can redraw all of our works....

I really like the first one, maybe the only little modification that I have is the strokes in the title, but only in the word "Emails", with a same white stroke of the other two words.

Congratulations by the jobs, all them is excellent!

(Not like my english... )
