Okay, so I was thinking about the artwork/design found on some of my c.d. covers. Some of it is pretty good and I like the composition of it. Others are not so good, and are borderline ridiculous or just plain boring and unimaginative...

So I just want to know if there are some album covers that you think look really good, or think look not so good.

For me, one that I really like would be this:



I like how artsy and imaginative it looks. It seems like someone really took the time to sit and think up a nice cover to put in front of the album. Yeah, it has a monotone color scheme in the general design, but I think it looks calming and nice. Also, the waves turning into the horses reminds me of that scene in the first Lord of the Rings movie.

One that I don't like so well would be something like this:



I have nothing against Howie Day, but that cover needs improvement... Granted, it's just the cover for his single "She Says" and maybe not a lot of thought gets put into the design for a single, but still it's just him drinking out of a cup and just looking bored. Also, there's not a lot of colors going on, which may just be the idea of having a muted color scheme, but I'm a fan of color, and this just doesn't do anything for me...

So does anyone else have any they would like to talk about and show?
