So perhaps you would have to mix fonts.<br /><br />I wonder what the rights to some of these typefaces are, somw may only be free for personal (and not commercial) use.<br /><br />Lilian @ <a href="http://noveltoybox.wordpress.com" rel="nofollow">A Novel Toybox</a>Lilianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11540910005642018594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14317779362944180.post-1272396150525561832012-11-20T22:47:32.295-07:002012-11-20T22:47:32.295-07:00I would go with the second chose; Beyond Wonderlan...I would go with the second chose; Beyond Wonderland.

Considering the colors I'm imagining your cover artist would use with the image we talked about, my first instinct is beyond wonderland. If we go shopping Friday remind me & I'll tell you more why. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14317779362944180.post-35068847840489829062012-11-20T20:04:00.100-07:002012-11-20T20:04:00.100-07:00I've put the final four up on the bottom of th...I've put the final four up on the bottom of the post. amberargylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05058327741777322247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14317779362944180.post-73910213813717663052012-11-20T19:21:54.340-07:002012-11-20T19:21:54.340-07:00Okay, so far, we have:

The "g" is pretty nice-looking, and I agree, the "h" and "n" are slightly off because of the way they're curving. You or the designer you're using could manually adjust the "h" and "n" to curve to the right instead of the left, (For example, look at the way designer Rich Deas altered the "C" in CINDER. He talks about it in an interview he did with me here: http://abackwardsstory.blogspot.com/2012/01/blog-tourgiveaway-cinder-cover-design.html ) If you could curve the slope to the right, this would probably be my favorite font.<br /><br />I also really like Beyond Wonderland, though I would remove some of the grunge, unless you're using it in a way that can turn the font into something icy that blends in. Otherwise, it's too distracting. At the moment, it's my favorite font, though!<br /><br />The other fonts are give or take. Those are my top three, though!Bonnie @ A Backwards Storyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02988547424004889874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14317779362944180.post-61891408135366949632012-11-20T17:47:18.360-07:002012-11-20T17:47:18.360-07:00I like the second one the best.

Like it's two backward Ds or something. the third one is okay, not a fan of the 4th.
