Um... I don't think James Dobson would approve of this.

Ha, I'm not gonna give you a design of my own, I was just very interested on seeing what people have come up with. I am in the process of designing several CD abd CD-R covers for a few projects I'm more or less involved with personally. It can really be a though thing to accomplish a decent cover. I've had one EP I'm personally going to put out as a promo since last September and none of the seventeen different cover variations have been satisfactory so far.

How did I miss this rubbish???

jerseykrs said:

I can't tell if they were serious attempts or not.

I will be announcing the winner next week. Stay tuned.

In the mean time I'll try and post what I got.

superspaceboy said:

Where are they all? I'm so intrigued to see all the differing interpretations.

superspaceboy said:

Ooooohhhh...that sounds a bit rude.

althom said:

ok here are some of the submissions...




























I'd say this is a good representation of what we got so far. If you still have something feel free to send it to me still for consideration. He likes ones I don't...and vice versa. But I just wanted to show you all what was submitted. Not exactly sure if any of these will end up in the album...but I will pick a "winner" of these and will announce that next week.

Feel free to use this thread now to discuss the final submissions and "vote" for your favorites!

GOOD JOB FOR EVERYONE THAT SUBMITTED STUFF!!!! THANK YOU!!!

Here are a few I did...I'm considering these for the insides

and a logo...




let me know what you think of this....

the one of kennedy with the headphones and the capsule gets my vote... very clever

cborgman said:

I really like it, too...but not necessarly for this CD. It feels like a CD cover for They Might Be Giants..lol ...I'd expect to hear whimsical, irreverent music on a CD with that cover, not atmospheric sonic landscapes.

This one's a bit spooky...



I'm not sure what it's saying to me or if it fits the music at all, but I like the picture.

I really like this one:



It conveys the right atmosphere for the music samples I listened to, I think...and for whatever reason images of water came to mind at the time I first heart the song samples.


Here's how it would look in a CD display rack...lol

The others as displayed in a CD rack (it's good to get a sense of how the finished product will look within the proper context):

true. can i change my vote, bob?

cborgman said:

Sure...there really no voting per se. I just want to see what folks think.

THanks Byron! That gives this perspective I didn;t have,

Byron said:

This one gets my vote, it really stands out. The spooky room one does too, but does it really suit the music?

cborgman said:

what about copyright issues for the photo?

charlottegelin said:

The spooky room one, to me, doesn't really fit the music...it feels more like a Led Zeppelin CD cover, a more rock and guitar vibe (at least to me). Love the photo, tho.

Byron said:

I like the moon one too by itself but on the rack it just disappears.
