There seems to be a growing number of people using 99designs for cover designs. Are thinking more along the lines of matching up illustrators/artists to author

  99designs has a lot of problems. The competition aspect is the main one. IT seems to draw the less experienced artists or ones looking for work. If 6 artists apply and do work for a competition, only one gets paid. I have seen lots blog posts from artists who dislike this. I'd like to bring out the more experienced ones, with a deeper portfolio who are looking to build their reputations rather than do quick designs for someone.
