I like the idea of some of the new covers - particularly that second Cryoburn one above - but the implementations seem a bit off, to me. I don't know if it's just their reproductions here and the way they've been scaled, but they seem to be lacking a bit of - I don't know - punch?
On the other hand, I own several versions of most of these books, and I can't remember what's on any of the covers. The only one I can actually recall was the embarrassingly awful original cover for Captain Vorpatril's Alliance, and I think that had been toned down to something bearable by the time I actually bought it.
