some of the legals/text seems a tad too hard to read atm? perhaps darken the black/red gradient background a bit, to make the text stand out?

Changed the back..... better or worse?
I don't know which I like the most.

I like this version better, but I'm curious how the white background is going to work with the dark front. It might provide a nice contrast, or it could be too distracting. Can you post a preview of the whole cover?

On it's own and not considering how it works with the front, I really like this update! The Portman image is much better, IMO.

However, I don't care for using the Matrix TT font in the middle of the synopsis... just seems odd...

For sure! here is the whole cover

I was also unsure about the Matrix TT, so it's gone now.

I'm really diggin the changes to the back layout Johan, but I don't think the white block at the bottom works out. I'd like to see this version, but with the white changed to black (or very dark red)

Must get some sleep right now, but will try that tomorrow!

How does this look?

I think I like this version more, than the one with the white block.

I think this one works better as well. But just a couple of things.

- The quote is was too big.
- "IN-MOVIE EXPERIENCE" & OTHER SPECIAL FEATURES try changing these to white.
- I think maybe you should space the quote lettering out a bit.
- Not sure about the spacing on the synopsis...
- Last thing, not sure about the thing on the spine?

Also think it looks better desaturated a little bit, I desaturated it by -20%

Liking this Johan! :arms:

A couple of things:

The quote at the top does not seem to work with the current font size. Letters are too widely spread out - almost to the point where its turning to unintelligible babble. Also. it almost looks as if you lost one of the quotation marks. I had to search for it beforeI found it. Something to ponder on. Perhaps try to make certain words larger to make them stand out?

Play around some with that

I think I'd like to see some colour back to Portman.

Try lighten the legals/credits aso a tad, they look too pink now IMO.

Do not desaturate 20%
