You could still be a winner! Cover design competition
for the 2nd Edition of Wolfe et al., Sensation & Perception

Did you have a great graphic (maybe in your recent VSS presentation)? 
Have you seen a great illusion or illustration lately (yours or 
other)? Our 2nd Edition needs a great cover illustration and it could 
be one of yours.

The cover of the first edition of Sensation & Perception, by Jeremy 
Wolfe, Keith Kluender, Dennis Levi, Linda Bartoshuk, Rachel Herz, 
Roberta Klatzky, Susan Lederman, and Daniel Merfeld featured a 
lightness illusion by Bart Anderson and Jonathan Winawer based on 
their report in Nature (2005). We are having a contest to determine 
the new cover. Send us your ideas. The textbook's authors will choose 
the winning image.  The winner will receive a $500 honorarium and a 
copy of the book as a reward and there will be a blurb in the front 
of the book describing the image and its authors.

To submit your image(s) please email a version of modest size 
(ideally less than 1MB) to spcover at sinauer.com.  Submissions must be 
received by June 30th, 2008.  The winner will be notified by email no 
later than August 1st, 2008.

While the submission should not be a huge file, the winning image 
will need to be available as a high resolution image, suitable for 
printing at 8.5" x 11". The publisher reserves the right the use a 
portion of the image or to adjust the colors as necessary unless 
expressly forbidden by you in the email submission of your image. The 
image should be yours to give (meaning there are no other potential 
copyright holders) and you will be required to sign an agreement with 
the publisher, Sinauer Associates, Inc. giving your permission to use 
the image on the book, the company and book websites, as well as on 
any marketing or ancillary materials created for the textbook.
