* Admittedly, there's a lot of covers out there which are finely-tuned to signal specific things to specific demographics but which look ridiculous (because they are) to those unfamiliar with the signals. Things other than "an amateur who hasn't taken the time to learn Photoshop did this," I mean. The perfect example of this is the cover for Pounded by the Biker Rainbow Come to Life: Firsy Time Gay Paranormal M/M Taboo, which--aside from the cover misspelling--is a signal for "ridiculous, over-the-top, tongue-in-cheek** pr0n."
