Title: Teamsma.net - Artwork Information- Kind of... Post by: Randy Jesus on November 28, 2006, 01:21:32 PM The following is from Mitch at www.teamsma.net (http://www.teamsma.net)
Quote Recently I have contacted Craig Howell of Cheeba Productions regarding the rumors that have place him as the responsible person for the artwork for a Guns N' Roses album. Howell was gracious enough to respond to my email. His response gave a clear answer but raised even more questions. In his response to my email, he first said that he was getting a lot of emails regarding an album called Chinese Democracy. He wanted to know the sources of the rumors and where they were spreading too. I gave him the web addresses to all the major Guns N' Roses fan sites. (heretodaygonetohell.com, chinesedemocracy.com, gnr2k.com, gnrnews.com, mygnr.com) The answer about the artwork for Chinese Democracy was at this point is to only be rumored. This response didn't deny it or confirm it. However I have a feeling that he may have been contacted at some point about the possibility of doing it. However there could be many different people that were targeted as potentially doing the cover art. Apparently Howell has no idea about the artwork as of right now. It poses two questions, who is actually doing the artwork? Is Howell being tight lipped about the work is maybe doing or has down? The answer being that it is rumored, seems a little too cryptic and goes along with what has been spreading. Joran Title: Re: Teamsma.net - Artwork Information- Kind of...

Title: Re: Teamsma.net - Artwork Information- Kind of... Post by: live-metal.net on November 28, 2006, 01:31:45 PM That is a shame that he wasn't considered, he is clearly a talented guy. Either way I still anxiously await seeing the new album artwork.

Quote who is actually doing the artwork? Maybe no one? (If it's done) I hear Adz did it. What happened to him? He disappeared after saying that. ???

No. I was told to make it clear in a previous thread that Craig Howell isn't the one who did the artwork. /jarmo Title: Re: Teamsma.net - Artwork Information- Kind of...

Thanks Jarmo! Nice of you to clear it up./jarmo Back Off Bitch: I'm sure that management just told Jarmo that he was not the person, but hey I could be wrong. If Jarmo has seen the art which I dont think he has, I dont think he'd want to, or be allowed to tell us. Think how many people would be trying to hack his computer. :hihi: Title: Re: Teamsma.net - Artwork Information- Kind of...

Title: Re: Teamsma.net - Artwork Information- Kind of... Post by: Randy Jesus on November 28, 2006, 01:57:54 PM wow it takes someone else to dig for information to make someone else accidentally to give some information... Just kidding... I will only believe its done, if Jarmo says yes.
Title: Re: Teamsma.net - Artwork Information- Kind of... Post by: T_Roxie on November 28, 2006, 01:58:23 PM I can't believe you poeple are analysing every word jarmo says. ?it's not like there are hidden meanings in every sentence, guys :rofl:
Title: Re: Teamsma.net - Artwork Information- Kind of... Post by: CAFC Nick on November 28, 2006, 02:01:03 PM Ugh, the old 'hush-hush' act has gotten real old, real fast.
Title: Re: Teamsma.net - Artwork Information- Kind of... Post by: Randy Jesus on November 28, 2006, 02:01:09 PM I can't believe you poeple are analysing every word jarmo says. it's not like there are hidden meanings in every sentence, guys :rofl: 'did' is past tense. 'Doing' is current. 'Will do' is future. However people do not always use grammar properly, so I will believe it if he says yes. Title: Re: Teamsma.net - Artwork Information- Kind of... Post by: D on November 28, 2006, 02:03:27 PM U gotta watch Jarmo, he will drop a hint every once in awhile :hihi: :hihi: :hihi:
Maybe we can trick him into a Freudian slip. : ok: Title: Re: Teamsma.net - Artwork Information- Kind of...

Title: Re: Teamsma.net - Artwork Information- Kind of... Post by: Will on November 28, 2006, 02:08:38 PM I was told to make it clear in a previous thread that Craig Howell isn't the one who did the artwork. Which means the cover won't have anything to do with the work he's done on that poster for the San Francisco shows? If that's the case, that's too bad, because that would have been one of the most beautiful album covers I've ever seen. If they came up/ will come up with something better, I'm anxious to see it. That guy is very good and it's a shame he has "never been considered" for it... Title: Re: Teamsma.net - Artwork Information- Kind of...

Post by: kyrie on November 28, 2006, 02:30:34 PM I spoke to Craig myself via email back when a radio DJ mentioned him onair as doing the CD artwork. He had no idea where the rumor came from, although he didn't confirm/deny any involvement.
If Jarmo says it wasn't him, then I'm guessing someone just saw his poster for the SF shows and assumed he'd be doing the album art. Title: Re: Teamsma.net - Artwork Information- Kind of...

Title: Re: Teamsma.net - Artwork Information- Kind of... Post by: freedom78 on November 28, 2006, 03:06:44 PM This may seem too obvious, but is it possible we've already seen the artwork? I'm thinking specifically of the Chinese man rowing his boat with a red background, which appears when the band plays Chinese Democracy during the encore. Might make for a cool album cover (THIS IS NOT A RUMOR, that I know of...just a thought!).

Post by: daviebuckethead on November 28, 2006, 05:39:06 PM i cant believe that they tell jarmo to deny rumours concerning artwork, but nothing to give us a hint if the album is coming out this year still.......
is it just me or does that seem stupid? for the record i liked the poster the particular guy did, but hope its not the artwork for CD. : ok: Title: Re: Teamsma.net - Artwork Information- Kind of... Post by: Alan on November 28, 2006, 05:46:59 PM Quote whats that got to do with anything? IMO it reads "you never can tell". yeah but if you read what jarmo put it says the artist who DID the artwork, past tense meaning the artwork is done surely.
