What's your favorite SWIMMER cover?

I posted the following as part of a response in another thread, but that thread appears to have moved on to a different topic. So, I'm posting the information and question here, along with a poll. We've heard a lot of discussion recently about a cover photo a few people on the forums don't like, but it would also be helpful to hear what people like. USMS has published just eight issues since starting the magazine, and partial contents from back issues of the magazine may be found at: www.usmsswimmer.com So, what's your favorite cover? By the way, the magazine staff receives and reviews ideas all year round. In addition, USMS has one big annual planning meeting each June to plan the following year's editorial calendar. SWIMMER receives a lot of completed manuscripts, but an outline or short synopsis is preferred. Writers who wish to be considered for future assignments are invited to send a published writing sample. If you have ideas, thoughts, suggestions, or Letters to the Editor, please send them to: editor@usms.org

    I have to vote for the last "noodling" cover because it was constructively controversial. Does anyone actually bother to look at a cover with the most recent multiple record breaking USMS All-American on it? Does it stimulate any reaction or reflection whatsoever? Yes, at some level, these folks deserve it. At another level, I hope for a bit more from our magazine than the "happy, happy, joy, joy" coverage you can find in any company newsletter. Great job, editorial staff. You've exceeded my expectations. Keep it coming. Matt
