Well, you may be right. The placement of the UPC symbol was a regular
aggravation. Still, I can't say that I recollect flopping even that
cover - blacking out the name "Titanic" on the stern of the ship, yes,
but flopping it, no.
So maybe you don't do it consciously; your covers are nevertheless
remarkably symmetrical. Many artists do covers that, when you flop
them, they just look strange. That's never been the case with yours. (I
know, because I like to check that sort of thing out on a lightbox, or
in a big picture window on a sunny day).
