Buzzjack Album Cover Design Competition

http://i192.photobucket.com/albums/z165/Jark101/buzzjack-album.jpg

Welcome to Buzzjack's Album Cover Design Competition! This competition is new to Chart

 

Chat and is being run by myself and Mikal with the permission of the Chart Chat mods. The

 

competition works in much the same way as the Single Cover Comp; you quite simply have to make a

 

cover for an album of your choice that's on the release schedule for the week, and submit it! At

 

the end of the week, voting begins and by the end of the weekend a winner is announced. Each week

 

the leaderboard will be updated, so why not try your hand at cover design? If you're a pro with

 

photoshop you've got a headstart, and if not you have nothing to lose!

 

Rules

 

1: You can submit just one cover each week - however, if you

 

feel like changing your cover midweek, it's not a problem - just update your original post.

 

2: Your submitted cover must have been created by you; if you are found to

 

have been stealing cover designs from others, as has happened in the past, you'll be banned from

 

the contest!

 

3: Any member of Buzzjack is perfectly welcome to vote for the covers

 

submitted, during the weekend voting session. Contestants should note that you cannot vote for

 

your own cover!

 

4: An overall winner from the leaderboard will be announced every four

 

months, with the leaderboard then being reset back to zero.

 

5: This thread will close at 8pm UK time on Friday; all covers must be

 

submitted by that time. If a situation arises that prevents you submitting a cover, but you

 

would still like to, PM me and I will extend the deadline by a couple of hours - however the

 

voting thread will not open any later than Friday night.

 

6: Mikal will PM all cover designers before Sunday lunchtime if they have

 

yet to vote; those who create a cover but who do not vote, regardless of the reminder, will lose

 

20 points from their final score.

 

7: Covers cannot be submitted for albums not on the below release schedule:

 

This includes any compilation series which isn't artist-specific, such as the Now or Clubland

 

series of releases.

 

8: If you no longer wish to continue the game, and wish for your name and

 

score to be removed from the leaderboard, PM myself or Mikal.

 

The deadline for submission of covers is 8pm Friday; PM me if you have any

 

problems.
