I'd like you to CLEARLY list your THREE favourites, in ORDER. THREE points will be awarded to your fave, TWO points for second and ONE point for third. Please try and be explicit with this and maybe give a little comment to say why you chose each cover as it makes it a bit more interesting for the rest of us!

Yay voting! Rob's cover came along the other week and totally blew me away so it has to win for me. Then the spotlight on Presidente really showed off the design even if it wasn't painted by MacNeil. Pretty much the same for the Mechanismo cover by Robinson. Great stuff! Thanks for taking the poll Pete!
1st: 2159
2nd: 2153

Only 3 this year is tough. Really wanted to get some Chris Weston in there, or Cliff Robinson's Judge Fire, or the splendid Leigh Gallagher Kingmaker wraparound, and talking about wraparound there was Stewart K Moore's Defoe cover. D'oh!

What an incredibly high standard. Always love doing this. I go with looking at the thumb nails and seeing which spring out and hold their theme at that size as an indicator how well they pop on the shelf. On that basis.

3rd Prog 2130 - Holds the fresh energy of the regene prog so well.
2nd Prog 2140 - So creepy - those eye!
1st Prog 2122 - While a love the end of year Prog this one has move energy and excitment

• 2131 The Ape of Good Hope!  The usual chin off with a subtle difference...   
• 2135 Beware the Woods (I'm a sucker for covers which look like film posters)
• 2153 All Hail el Presidente!  Looks like a revolutionary poster.

This post brought to you by the numbers 1, 2, 3 and 5.
