Bootleg artwork
 

Well here's an idea. Probably a stupid one, but I'll throw it out there anyhow.
What if people tried to pitch in and make art for the bootlegs that don't have any? The more popular bootlegs, at least.
I'm someone who absolutely hates having the artwork empty in my iTunes library, and bootlegs are the main culprit with that.
I could just make them for myself, but I hate everything I make. I could still make some though...
We could use throwndown.net to help compile a list of ones that need it and people could volunteer or whatever?
I don't know, just an idea. We'll see.
By the way, if this would fit better in the Chit Chat forum, go ahead and move it. I apologize.

I'm the same way about missing album art, it drives me mad. But I'm not much of a one for photoshopping, so I just use a picture of the group that I like for the bootleg covers.

Like a Tusk era shot for a Tusk tour show:

That works for me right now, but I'd love some great looking covers for these shows. Especially since there seems to be alot of talented artistic types around here. So, yeah, not a stupid idea at all!

BTW, I've downloaded the few shows I have from this board, but I never thought to check throwndown.net for covers. Gonna go check that out.

Both of you check your PM's. :thumbsup:

Well thank you very much, but what I meant was the bootlegs that don't have any artwork. Not all of them do.
I'll go through that though to see if there's any there that I'm missing.

I go through phases of making bootleg artwork ... it's all very basic Photoshop stuff, but I'll post some of my better efforts when I get a chance!

NodMod?! haven't seen you in aaaaaages!

Welcome back. :nod:

Thanks, always here, mostly reading now as opposed to posting :o

Good to know you're still around. :blob2: ;)

I made something for the Mirage Demos and Outtakes bootleg. The one with Chris singing Gypsy and all the different mixes of Hold Me and Oh Diane and all that stuff.
It isn't much, but it's better than nothing I suppose.

Here's one more I pulled together - Christine in Iowa.

I don't know how much people are even paying attention to this thread, but whatever.
The ones I posted earlier were just a couple random covers I needed. I guess if anyone likes them though and wants me to make a specific one, just let me know and I'd be more than happy to pull something together.
