Congrats to Russ and to everyone who has taken part this week.

==================================================

Rules:

1 Design one cover (Single or Album) per week, you have the option to change your cover as many times as you want as long it meets the closing deadline. And please edit your original cover.

2 The Cover Design should always be your own creation, and no one else's. All forms of cheating will result in removal from the Leaderboard.

3 New members are welcome to join anytime and any member of Buzzjack can vote not just the cover designers, in the voting thread once set up at the end of the week. You cannot vote for your own covers. And don't forget its a cover competition, you are voting for a cover not your favourite artist or for your favourite member.

4 A winner will be announced every four months and the Leaderboard will then be set back to zero.

5 The Cover Voting Thread will be posted after all covers are submitted, I will give an extension if needed at my own discretion. The voting thread will close on every Sunday at 10:00pm (UK time), the winning cover will be revealed after the votes have been counted.

6 Any votes submitted after 10pm will not be counted, same goes for PM votes.

7 I will send one and only one reminder each Saturday evening to Cover Designers that have not submitted votes during the voting period.

8 If you are not playing any more, please let me know if you wish your name to be removed from the Leaderboard.

9 Please let me know your change of Display Name, sometimes its hard to keep track of who's who

Deadline: 3rd July (Friday) 8:30pm

I agree with Mart!n, it's a shame. Your last cover was really good and deserved to be placed way higher, it has to be said. :(

One I prepared earlier, I couldn't find any inspiration for a single cover this week so I opted for an album cover. The original picture was much darker, just gave it a facelift. Still unsure about it but there is nothing else I wanted to do this week.

Jordin it is :).

July 5, 200916 yr

are you professional Russ? its brilliant art.

no... I wish... :) just feeling my way round the PhotoShop CS packages..... amazing what you can do with them.... and thanks... glad you like - it's great to see so many people using graphics packages to the max here, not that you need fancy packages to make great work, though...

Thanks for the votes!!! This week - possibly Florence and the Machine..... or Bjork....
