When we switched over to the new poll site one of the things that got lost, that was listed in past years, was the names of the artists and designers for the covers. So I just wanted to take a quick moment to name those folks and recognize the great work that they have done.

All information was taken from the books except for Peepshow which required a follow up email with the publisher

To vote for any of these covers or to place votes in the other categories you can find the poll here.
