The bike: problably not.
The bandana one: not a chance.
Chinese dragon: can't remember I've seen it.

I think we're gonna get a big shock for all 3 covers. I have no inside info on this, I just think all 3 are not only going to be different, but better then anything we've made up through the years.

The only thing I hope for is a BIG BAD ASS GNR logo on each.

I would be disappointed if it were the bandana design, or anything we've seen before. The artwork isnt the reason I'm buying the album, but GNR had some sick covers back in the day, UYI may be my all time favorite. The merchandise for the 2001 tour was incredibly cheap/cheesy looking. Not a fan of the chinese lettering at all. I understand it ties everything together, but the GNR logo is the best in the biz, leave it alone. I'd like to see some sort of throw back to when bands had artists create the album covers(Example: Metallica - Master of Puppets), instead of junior graphic designers and the clip art feel to everything released today(Example: Smashing Pumpkins - Zeitgeist).

Guys, if you go to the Best Buy web site and click on Chinese Democracy (Cover A) , Format: CD, then add it to your wish list....a small image appears. This is most likely the cover art for disc A, too bad I can't enlarge it.

Axl said quite some time ago that an image they were using at the live shows of a bike with 'GUNS N' ROSES' spray painted on the wall nearby was going to be the cover of the record.

I think it's fucking great.

Don't you think that the "GUNS N' ROSES" and "CHINESE DEMOCRACY" are too simple, I mean, the picture isn't so bad, but it seems like a fanmade cover! And how would this image be used with other colors? Unles there's 3 different covers! beer

Strange that that is almost the same bike/graffiti pic from the Amazon.com 'fanmade' cover...

If they have any sense, (which they have I'm sure) the 3 versions will, when put side by side create a bigger picture. ie you need all three to complete the picture, but any one will stand alone as art in its own right.

Would seriously hate the 3 colour variations, due to lack of imagination, but I'm sure I'll get over it, if it is  ok
