listen, shrimps
-i've been in this business for over 5 long years-i've seen the good, the bad, and the oh-so ugly...
I'm done with y'all ruining beautiful edits with ugly ass text.
say it with me boys and girls :
if your text looks like shit then your cover AIN'T SHIT.
Idc if your editing looks like digital art magic if your text is ugly then it ruins the entire design.
Because that's one of the first things people are drawn to when they see your cover! They want to KNOW what it's about and the text does half of the explaining for them.

GOOD TEXT
+ it's easy to see and the words are easy to identify
+the font matches the mood of the cover
+there's blue motion blur around it to match the blue of the bg
+there's just a little bit of flair (the two "o"s overlapping) in it.
+the text is balanced and in proportion to the cover
+the font isn't overambigous and it's simplicity speaks for itself

BAD FUCKING TEXT
+it blends to the point where it's very hard to see
+the font looks like something you'd see in vampire horror and has nothing to do with "moon seer"
+the red colour bleeds into the red lights and unbalances the colour scheme of the entire cover because blue bg(1)–red light red hair red lips red text (4)
