2. I've only seen one cover elsewhere. But maybe there are 2 covers & they accidently posted 1 twice. |

8. I don't think that's the cover's fault. Notice the red field and the lettering |
|
Everything is darker on the top cover. I think that's just the lighting of the picture of the cover.

10. Ya think? Which of these four were the top ones at Huffpost? |
|
Two of these are the top and two are the bottom from Huffpost. I think they are identical.

12. You'd think they would have avoided giving him horns, at least |
|
One of the first rules of photography is to make sure there's nothing growing out of the subject's head - I'd think it's the same for magazine layouts...

16. Not a photography issue. |

That's a graphic design / editing issue

17. Yeah. And I just noticed the backdrop is super wrinkly |
|
At first glance, the cover looked awesome but I think they screwed it up a little.

7. Heh. They mean each issue has two separate covers. I think. |
|
One you can tear off, and the other you can leave on. As a souvenir cover for framing, for instance.

9. No difference, none, nada, zip. |
|
I loaded both and toggled back and forth...no difference between the two?

15. I'd bet that's an error on Huffpo's part. |

20. Essence has two covers - one with Michelle and one with Barack - coming out. |
|
"As the subjects of a special 56-page-tribute, President-elect Barack Obama and soon-to-be First Lady Michelle Obama grace the cover of the January 2009 issue of Essence Magazine, on newsstands December 12" http://hiphop.popcrunch.com/barack-obama-michelle-obama-essence-magazine-january-2009-cover-photos/

22. think its a misprint. If you right click and View Image, both are |
|
named "original.jpg" Looks like someone just made a mistake and uploaded the same pic.

23. would the bar code be different for different covers? I haven't |
|
zoomed in to check this, but if they're exactly the same, I'd say that's more evidence that they simply posted the same photo...

24. The magazine will have two covers, that's what they mean. |
|
The magazine has two different covers on each magazine. The first is for the magazine, the second is so you can detach and frame it.

25. They are pixel-for-pixel identical |
|
Tested in Photoshop. Interesting how some think one is sharper/darker... The power of suggestion at work!

27. They goofed. The "difference" on the special issue is a gold background |
|
for the Ebony logo, rather than it's traditional red.
Personally, I think the photo placement is the biggest problem - Obama looks like he has horns. They should have used a better composition/size/layout whatever. But that looks dumb and will look dumber (on their part) in 15 years....
