Taking another look, I see that Healing and Vibrations are not centered in
respect to each other. There's an extra space in there that threw it off.
Luckily, I have time to fix it.
i wouldn't center it; as a quick fix, it's cleaner to right justify all three
lines
you've already been subjected to design by committee, but if you are open to
more input, the font is pretty cliché; you can get away with it but a lot of
people will see it and say "self-produced CD"; same with the yellow color and
small font size
the photo is great -- it carries the low-key message perfectly and doesn't need
any help from the type
if it were me i would make the title type larger and stretch it across the
bottom, put "Paul Miles" where the title is (but in larger type), and find a
more refined, slightly casual font and kern it carefully; i'd also suggest the
color of the hat (which is also in the leaf edges) for the type, with a very
thin keyline in the dark wood color from the guitar
Darren's take has merit too (i like how mr. Miles fills more of the frame); the
top type could be done without a background, just a dropshadow or a keyline
(this advice coming from several years producing covers for books and magazines)
