I was bored so I made a proto album cover.

I like it, but maybe change the color of the ECY of prophecy like you did with anket or whatever in the second line. Also, I don't like that emptiness next to the boy with the gun.

Is it suppose to be for any specific genre of music?

Hard Rock / Nu Metal

Eh, i dont know if I like the colors too much.


I definatley dont like how the text reverses out on his legs. It doesnt really make the text jump out, it just looks like its flat.

I really really really dont like the parental advisory thing. Dont those usualyl go on as stickers anyway?


Oh and the band name, you need to make that stand out too. It gets harder to read as you move to the right.

It looks too dark and too down-to-earth for a Nu Metal band. I don't think it would hit the target audience.
Another problem is the band name text, which is too close to the head of the boy.

Hahaha, Phrophecy

I'm fine with how the title inverts, the colors are "meh." but I don't have any suggestions there. However, the text layout could use some work:

1.) I don't like the font used for the band name (that and the all caps looks strange)
2.) maybe you could size the name down and move it right above the word "Philosophy". Then you could move the Sticker to the upper right, giving the whole cover a little more balance.

I made a new one, a better one. This is still a work in progress.

The ophy are a little hard to read, and maybe choose a color that stands out more I think.

Other than that 'ophy' is harder to read I think it's a 100x better than the first version. Myabe outline the text.

Same problem in this one, your text just doesnt stand out at all. And as you go to the right of both peices of text, the background either gets darker or more complex.

That makes the text really hard to read.


Try using a different text color, or positioning the text differently.

First one: Eww, beyond salvation.

Second one: Better than the first, but it still suffers from the same problems: monochromatic color scheme, and uninteresting layout.

On #2: I agree, the monochromatic color scheme is bland. It's a good picture, it's just a boring color; you should find a picture with interesting colors that draw your eyes' attention. Both pictures have this empty space, just looming there. Also,if you outline the text with a lighter color it will stand out more.


btw, would you give me permission to make my own suggestion and post it here?

Personally, I liked the first one much better, but change the color of the end of the main title.

Hey dude, I don't care much for your ****ty techno, but I don't go around to all your threads and knock your music.

****ty? Hahahah.

Oh christ, first Journey, now this. You, sir, have made my day.

He said "hard rock / nu metal" but hard rock and nu metal are COMPLETELY different genres.

I guess he's just a musical pioneer, soon to be a living legend among fusion musicians!

You know what's awesome? Powerman 5000!

You know what else is awesome? Not sucking at making up band names. Yeah.

You spelled Philosophy wrong in the second image.

That might be more constructive than everything else they're saying...
