Since I started a thread about Trek covers, I decided to make another about what you think the worst covers are/were?
Worst Covers
- Thread starter Man of Steel
- Start date
All the parts?
Yes.
GHost Ship, and that inverted Battlestar...
Gemworld, book 1. Another cover with a bad likeness of Data.
Soul Key. Without wishing to be harsh, it looks like someone ran out of time and knocked it up with Photoshop in five minutes.
Another vote for The Soul Key. Awful Photoshop.
At least in the old days, someone actually took the trouble to draw. THAT, on the other hand, had to have been slapped together in five minutes just like disasterprone said.

My least favorites tend to be the ones with what look like publicity shots of the actors. Enterprise's By the Book, Surak's Soul and What Price Honor? and DS9s Emissary immediately come to mind.
That being said, one of my favorites is Enterprise's Rosetta which is a photo of an actor but they just did so much more with it.

I quite disagree. It's not a pretty cover, but it's not a pretty story, which makes the cover rather fitting, IMO.
That's the one that jumped to mind right away when I read the OP. If was going to pick one of the more recent ones, IMO, I'm going to go with "Before Dishonor" for the bad Photoshop look.
Intellivore, that one makes Data look like a sex offender. Just picture "Do You want some candy?"
There's nothing wrong with the idea behind the cover concept of Loosing the Peace, but I dont think it was executed that well when put together. The images of both Worf and Picard jar at how awkardly they are fitted on for one thing.
The Captain's Honor.
It has the wrong sword on the cover.
