[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 9366841, member: 7006"] I went None. Not a big fan of the smudgy, not-terribly-detailed backgrounds of the three images, plus all the characters and figures being so proportionally smaller in the frame. There just seems like there's a lot of extra empty space around all the characters, all of which is just smudgy color. Not very interesting. There's also the issue of the book titles being at the bottom of each book so that the 'Dungeons & Dragons' typeface logo can be at the top... which I'm also not a fan of. I find the narrow and outlined white typeface they are re-using for the three titles to be a much more eye-catching and compelling typeface than what they used for the logo, so putting that down below doesn't look as good in my opinion. The 5E14 books with the red 'D&D' logo image at the top and the bright white book title and red underline underneath it was a much better layout that what the new books have I feel. It's no big deal... I don't hinge my enjoyment of a gaming product by its art... but if I'm going to vote since the poll is here, that's how I'd go. [/QUOTE]
