IYD Album Cover!

[wheart]

so I still have my complaints about the cover; however, i did managed to print it out this morning and I have it prominently displayed in my cube at work so I guess its safe to say its growing on me. Every time I walk by I give it a little glance and a smile appears on my face. Love or hate the cover, it's still new music from Stevie and for that I am excited.

Maybe that explains the wonkyness of the image and how it looks like a picture of a 2 dimensional image taken for the side?

Could be. That would also explain the hand in the crook of her arm?

maybe a Ledge in-house cover contest is in order?

Granted, with record/CD shops disappearing faster than $3 a gallon gasoline, the " customer POV" is disappearing, too. But, being from the 60's generation of record store employees, it's been beaten into me that text should be at the top so customers can see who the album is by as they're looking through the racks/displays. Even albums with NO TEXT on the cover had stickers placed over the shrink wrap in either the upper left or upper right corner.

I don' t think that's as relevant today. Considering the internet/digital world we live in, most people don't shop for "albums" in record stores like they used to. The picture or imagery would be more of a selling point for those who are not familiar with Stevie. Besides, in most record stores I've shopped in, there's usually plastic dividers with the artist's name on top for identification purposes.

I hope we get a huge Vynl LP for this. This would make a great large cover.

I still personally don't see it! I acknowledge that blob of light there, but I can't distinguish anything human-like at all unfortunately.. any tricks?

Is she putting subliminal messages in her photos?

I've always wondered if that face on Mirage was intentional.

I must say, I wish there was a crystal ball on this cover. I wish she would have never ditched that idea.

if you look in the HQ stevie photo thread you may be able to see the dwarfed hand. I'd say its a lot of bad photoshop layering.
