As an exec, if I couldnt read it it would hit the shitcan.

I'll make you a back cover, send me the picture from the top row, right and the bottom row, left on your back cover.

Well, first draft an all that. I kinda liked the idea of a post-practise shot. late in the evening, smoke rising from the 'recently on fire' instruments :-D and a tub of grass nesting on Dan's hi-tech black bin bag, or should I say 'garbage' bag :-) for his various plugs and leads.

True.

Here goes:

Try not to have the song title cover pics.
Maybe you could have smaller pics on the back, and
the titles over a colored background.

Yeah, some black behind the lettering would most likely help it "pop" out.

And I wonder if the all songs part should be the small print part?

:-) :-) :-) What is the title of this topic again? 'Anyone feeling Creative' I believe and most certainly NOT 'Anyone here a critic' :-) .
I'm no good at this so I was hoping someone here would be...thankyou YYZ'. Back cover...front cover...help! I was only pissing about with 'Nero Cover Designer' anyway :-) .
