Posted March 10, 200817 yr Buzzjack Album Cover Design Competition http://i192.photobucket.com/albums/z165/Jark101/buzzjack-album.jpg Welcome to Buzzjack's Album Cover Design Competition! 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! Results [Week 7]: 1st: DJCharly C - http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f115/djcharly/mespochettes/keliscover-1.jpg 2nd: Russt68 D - http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v679/russy68/goldfrappseventhtreeb.jpg 3rd: Goodvibes G - http://i146.photobucket.com/albums/r249/CarlosBengas/goldfrappseventhtreecarlos1.jpg 01 | DJCharly [C] 89 Points 02 | russt68 [D] 77 Points 03 | Goodvibes [G] 68 Points 04 | Jark [E] 58 Points 05 | Vanessa [F] 56 Points 06 | CremeEgg25 52 Points 07 | JamesP [A] 44 Points 08 | Angelic Shine [H] 43 Points 09 | chrisfishlock 17 Points Leaderboard [7 Weeks]: 01 | russt68 [836 Points] 02 | Goodvibes [689] 03 | Vanessa [605] 04 | JamesP [571] 05 | Jark [552] 06 | Angelic Shine [481] 07 | CremeEgg25 [339] 08 | Clyde [315] 09 | smith_paul [280] 10 | diamondlad [225] 11 | djcharly [205] 12 | chrisfishlock [200] 13 | Patr0nus [162] 14 | French Kiss [88] 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 9pm 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:JamesP 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 JamesP. The deadline for submission of covers is 9pm Friday; PM me or JamesP if you have any problems. This week designers will be able to pick any new release from last or this week, or any album from last week's Top 30.

March 14, 200817 yr OK, I know we have a section for her and this shouldn't be here, but I just got sent what is apparently the actual cover for the new Madonna album Hard Candy.... and, well, we could all do with a laugh on a Friday evening... surely one of the worst album covers ever, I think - unflattering photo, vile lettering... and the latest in Madonna's fairly lengthy succession of really, really poorly designed album sleeves - YEUCH... abysmal... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v679/russy68/madonna_candy.jpg

March 14, 200817 yr Author Latest in a long line? Confessions' cover was truly fabulous. This is sh!t though. Even a nicer font would improve it 10x.
March 14, 200817 yr Latest in a long line? Confessions' cover was truly fabulous. This is sh!t though. Even a nicer font would improve it 10x. agree about the font... disagree about Confessions - it was cheap and nasty-looking. Same as most of her album covers apart from American Life, her only truly well-designed album cover ever, I think.
