I was going to post this myself, but Mindy Klasky has done a good job translating the survey into an LJ poll, and it’s easier to have all the data in one place anyway. Therefore, I encourage everybody to head over to her journal and answer a few questions about your preferences in cover art.

The survey in question was started by Elizabeth Moon, and is part of an attempt by some SF/F authors to suss out the decisions made by publishers’ art departments, and how those fit/do not fit with reader preferences.
