I see all the numbers as having stitches in them (the texture), but I could be wrong.

Nope, the ACTUAL cover will definitely look like this...

Yes, I noticed that too. The first '1' resembles more of a slash, like when writing the date 3/21 and the second '1' I guess is supposed to echo the 3 & 2 more. (To me, the second '1' looks exactly the same as the bottom right section of the '3'.) If you look at the ads that have the date (like the USA Today ad, for example) you can see that the release date of 3/21 is almost exactly below the 3121 on his back. My theory is that they altered the '1's so that they were two distinct shapes and make it echo the release date more....

The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp.

amazing! No word "Prince" on the cover? It´s very intriguing, but at the same time, may be confusing for non-fans.

Well, neither 'Musicology' or 'The Rainbow Children' had Prince's name on the cover either.
(I expect it will probably have a sticker on the cover with his name though)


Other albums without Prince's name on the cover...

Around The World In A Day (LP version)
Parade (CD version)
Sign O' The Times
"The Black Album"
Lovesexy

I trust you on this! Good news for me, because I really like it more without the black corners.

I'd much prefer the cover for the Black Sweat single; why didn't they use that instead??

Maybe because it sucked?

It's fine for a single I guess, but a dark silhouette in front of a psychedelic background. I could make that cover in Microsoft Paint.

razz



that is COOL. did you do it? nice work! but you still need to take out the "and the revolution" and put "and the NPG"

or is that ust wishfull thinking?

anyway GOOD work!



Also you need to make one of "1" a penis. But I agree this would be a better cover.

It's funny, I'm at a different computer at the moment, and I just now can see that his eyes are closed and noticed his moon wrap because this monitor is adjusted brighter.
I liked "my" version a little better!
