[French Traveller] Cover concepts ; opinions wanted

I'm toying with cover concepts, for the French edition of Traveller.

Here are some ideas I has for the first four books. These are basic concepts, to be refined ...

Do they look cool to you ?
Do you have some advice to make them better ?
(smaller images, like some people say ?)

I rather like the "big round thing" theme
. Though I'm not sure why a lemon slice is on the cover of the Contacts book... ;)

That one is supposed to be an eye, but I'll have to make it clearer :rolleyes:

Phillipe, what's the first one? Does it have a title, too?
If you're talking about the picture, IIRC it's an X-Ray (or hydrogen-alpha?) image of the Sun. Looks like the book is some kind of corebook with that colouring.

I agree with Mal, I like the 'round' theme. However, I don't think they're particularly exciting. They certainly don't say 'adventure' to me. They look more like school science textbooks.

I love these! Too bad I don't do French!

I think the eye should be blue or brown, not gold....
