Final Critique & Adjustments

Wednesday was my final critique before my book cover is due.  After the critique, I made several changes to my design.  The most noticeable is the omission of the bridge border on the back cover.  In fact, much of the back cover has changed; the cityscape line drawing has been grounded and the text is now in a more classic thin column.  Another "major" change is replacing the leaf symbol with the police badge.  Apparently maple leaves just can't shake the Canada association.  Many of the other changes made were dealing with sizing issues and the like.
