Contest Brief

I have attached a book cover design for my recently published novel. I would like for someone to improve the design by "sharpening up the image" somewhat (making the words clearer.

I do not want too much changed in terms of the way it looks, but the last designer screwed up a bit. The spelling of Havana is incorrect (at the top) (should be no "H" at the end) ... and Rio de Janeiro is mis-spelled (the previous designer spelled it as "Janerio" ... it should be spelled "Janeiro" ("i" before the "r").

The bottom line is that I like the design of this cover, but it is just a bit sloppy, and not clear enough to serve as a "professional" looking book cover.

I have three more novels in the series, each of which will need either design changes or completely new cover designs in early February. If I like your work, I will select you to improve and/or design these 3 additional book covers.

Thank you

PPS: If you could add a "fedora hat" to the shadowy figure's head, it would be great (see additional attachment for the style of hat)

* Some of the cities names are only partially listed ON PURPOSE, as they "run off of the book".

The world cities listed in the background of the cover, in order from top to bottom, are as follows (spelled correctly here): Havana, Yerevan, Lisbon, Shanghai, Paris, Pyongyang, New York, Moscow, Washington, London, Berlin, Lahore, Dar Es Salaam, Stockholm, Rio de Janeiro, Amsterdam, and Tehran.
