Dude O.o
It took me an hour to find this picture! And then I had to copy it and flip it, so it looked like a mirror. Then I found the awesome text and had to add that one there.... Then I spent another hour playing with GIMP to try and get rid of the solid white background around the words. Which I did! But then I also found out how to do this awesomesauceness XD

EDIT: I went back to fix the title, as suggested. But I just couldn't do it! DX I love the font way too much. So instead I experimented with different lights and darkness' :3

I hope you like them! :3 (Please comment and tell me which one you like better)

Nice!
Awesomesaucesome GIMP skills you have,here.

The only issue that I have is with the font. It's too big and noticeable.
A plainer text font, centered, with a smaller size could bring more attention to the actual cover, and the "mirror" effect would be more recognizable.
Also, you could make the font white/off-white/whitesmoke. It sets off the mood a bit so everything isn't so black.....
Adds to the "pull" factor.

Other than that, really nice job!

Very creative! Great editing :D
I really love how it's black and white, did you do that or was that how the original pic was?
Though if this is for your novel I don't see how it fits the story, since most of it is in a different world.
The bad news is we don't have any control.
The good news is we can't make any mistakes.
