CP has done a marvelous job, in particular since my "instructions" were pretty vague. I sent her a bunch of pics and said have fun and here are some other book covers I kind of like. It's got to be hard to do something where the person wanting the work done is not terribly articulate about what it is she might want.

That said, I'm going to ask for one more revision, minor. The text runs a bit too close to the bleed area on the top and bottom, otherwise, I think it's spiffy as heck!

CP has done a beautiful job on the gradient background and recreation of the smoke from the ciggie. I did not notice that it was not as in the original photo, awesome work!

"Bleed" is additional image that extends beyond the trimmed edge. By printing this extra 1/8" of image, it allows for minor movement tolerances in post-press cutting. Without the bleed, one runs the risk of seeing a very small, but usually quite noticeable white edge where the image is supposed to run off (bleed) the edge of the paper.

What Snowflake was referring to ("The text runs a bit too close to the bleed area on the top and bottom...") was keeping live copy away from the trim. While typically it is suggested that "live copy" (text and images where it would be highly noticeable if they were clipped) be kept 1/8" away from the final trim edge, often times from a design aesthetic, one will keep type further away than that. From the looks of it - the type is more than 1/8" from trim, but I agree that it needs to be just a little bit more.

Hey: I have a bachelor's degree in this crap: it isn't too often I get to show it off in public.

Yeah, I knew as soon as I typed that it would quoted. I thought about changing it, but I decided to leave it anyways.
