I don't mean to undermine the importance of cover. But I still believe in old saying that content is more important.
What does the other authors and readers think?

It's got to be the cover that
sells the book, maybe with the help of a dip in the first chapter. How many people stand in a bookstore till they've read the book and then buy it and take it home?
On the other hand, the
content of that book may very well affect the outcome of future sales of other books by the same author. Personally, I only allow an author one bad book before they lose all their credibility.
