I like that you already marked the cd to have explicit lyrics 

Well, what?s a GN?R record without a few well placed 'F' words   

Roll on CD

hey, thanks! so yea, lmk what you guys think, don't hold back  i wanted to keep it simple, yet noisy. in the one that i have at home, i have "GUNS N' ROSES" and " CHINESE DEMOCRACY" on the cover, but with this one i thought it was stronger without it...

i also wanted to ad that i figure some of you might recognize some of the imagery, i just did goog;e searches, and grabed images and changed contrast and that kind of stuff, i know that you probably couldn't use these exact images as they are not my own, but i thought something similar to what i have above would look cool..

cheers 

[vicarious existence]

Wow... I love it. That's my favorite one so far. The absence of the band and album name really make it.. addition by subtraction if you will.

[Wooody]

yuo, really good, could you post the one with the name of the album and the band ? I might use it for a bootleg compilation I made?

[using my illusions]

will do, i'll have it up a little later on, the one i have at home with the title is better then the one i have here at work w/title. but i'll throw it up here for sure.

i could seriously have about 20 different covers for this thing, love doing this kind of stuff. problem is, im never fully satisfied. i've been wanting to design/build my own site for a LONG ASS time now, but as soon as i get something close to finished, all the sudden i don't like it, and want to change the direction... anyways, unimportant. i'll put the title on the cover above for you and put it on here shortly, cheers 

[using my illusions]

ok here's one with the title... i appologize if you weren't talking to me, i ass-umed you were...and then realized that you could have meant someone else. anywho - here you go. only issues there might be is that it's a low res file 72 resolution, so i dunno how it will turn out when printed, or if it is the correct size for a cd case. i did this at work (trying to do it while not letting my boss see) so i had to cut short on some details.... aaah  im a great employee 

cheers

hehe, I WAS talking to you, thanks a lot, that cover looks great !

Have you noticed fans are doing everything ? Ive seen fan made videos and covers...the only thing left to do is the recording of the music 

[using my illusions]

lmao  - yea, and even then, there are fans that are recording their own versions of the songs...  and putting them on these boards for us to listen to

Holy shit! That's the coolest fan cover I have ever seen.....period. I can't tell you enough how much I love it. Dude, you gotta send this to Interscope. This kix the living Mcfrougal shit out of Axl's whole "bike on the wall" idea. Dude, I don't even think the official cover will top that.........it would just be so cool if you got into contact with some members of the GN'R camp with that design....

*ahem* one i just made

[jgfnsr]

Sheesh!   

I loved the original cover-art for this thread but I think this takes the cake...

[norway]

for those who did not see visionarys post ( i saw red x) this is it

cool

[Bird]

The red artistic Chinese Democracy album cover is still by far the best!  I think that deserves an upgrade from headliner to...
Rock n' Roll using my illusions...

 

[PeterCoffin]

This IS very cool. When I read the first line, I thought "Well, yet another crappy...", and THEN I saw the pic. Cool work.

That is what I was thinking, and I must say, that is a wonderful cover.
