thanks for check, I am not very convinced, any other photo
could be placed, and change to the fonts and their
location...

thanks to give its opinion, if somebody want make the
cover...
obvious we will give credit to the covermaker and we will
thank for much :-)

they both look good, with perhaps the second photo looking
slightly better. also the 2nd one will use less ink! :D

If you want, I can send it to you (psd and/or jpg)

another addy..

IT SUCKS, to be honest.. dont let yourself be fooled by the
people who says it looks good. cover graphics are too
underrated these days, you should get someone with graphical
sense to make it.

They lack something to make them stand out. As it is they're
well made but kind of "standard" looking. They don't seem
individual enough for the records. Maybe try to composite
the images together in some way so that you create a more
otherworldly image. I'm not a designer so I'm no good. If
you've got a friend who's imaginative and good at art ask
them to whip you something up.

great Matvey, if you want...
we are using 478x478 pixels (real size) if you need/want
more pixels no problem and thanks for try dude, really!

cuntychuck: i agree with you, i make that fast and i dont
know about colors/design (design is the idea really), but we
just need put something now, the cover is not so so so
important, if the cover is wellmade... great, if not...
great too... out there are so many major releases with
"shity" covers :D

giginger: i'm thinking about your words, thank you...

i_x_ten: hello!

ah right... well, you might need a general theme then.
something which is found in all of the tracks, which can
unite them into a single album.

reading this is total pleasure.. though it's not genius at
all.
Thank you for that:)
I just thought about the title of the compilation - if it is
final version - then ok. If it's not - you have the psd and
can type everything you want.

comp. what you think? well i go to the bed now, i write you
