My new CD: Could you help me CREATE THE ARTWORK?

Hey everyone! I have decided to name the CD "Thessalonica" thanks to your input and my personal preference. The song titles are listed below. Now, I need help in designing a CD cover. I know PP4 had an idea below, anyone else have an idea and access to a basic CD cover creator to begin some artwork? Of course, you can put your art credits on the CD!


Peace,
JD

Many songs on this CD, if related to Prince' sound, have more of a "For You/Self Titled Prince" era feel to them, like "Soft And Wet", "Just As Long As Were Together", "Crazy You", "Sexy Dancer", etc.

Okay. Here was my thinking.

The music is modern, but in a retro way. The title sounded like a movie from the 60's-70's sci-fi era - Adromeda Strain, Soylent Green, etc.

I wanted something that was abstract but conveyed that retro-modernism.

So, that's where it came from.

WOW! I really like that! I was thinking of something similar myself! I think I will definitely use this if it's ok with you. Also, I have a couple pictures that I would like someone to blend together. I will send them to whoever has the time and the software to create photo effects.


Peace,
JD
