Or...

There isn't a specifik theme jcnporter. If it's good it is good and your contributions look more than good to me. But then again, the community decides.

Keep in mind that only complete designs will compete and until now there aren't any.

that's gorgeous!

Yeah, it's going to take something pretty amazing to top that ^^^. Nice work.

Had a vague concept using the Illuminati symbolism hidden within a hexagonal compound eye - the all-seeing-eye and all that - but seemed far too cliched to be interesting so I left it alone.

Thanks man, I am playing around with more imagery for the back now, got some ideas off some mates from college that I like. Am trying to use the 6 rings as this is the 6th volume, and tie that in with the rings on a tree, so am going to do up some ring-y type background for the back, have last years tracklist on there already but the image doesn't work with my front design. Just thought I'd give it a go as have submitted tunes and something to do for the next month in my spare time.

Good luck with your one man, if you go ahead. I was actually toying around with a illuminati pyramid logo for Grim on Mbient last week, but going in a different direction now.

EDIT: Cheers to Techboy also, nearly forgot ya mate. Appreciated!

Cool Robin, just wondering, as the community decides, should we post our designs here for all to see, along with mailing the finals to you? Am working on a complete one, should be done by the weekend and hope to enter it then

this is killer.

I love this man, great work! Look forward to seeing how it fits in with your design.

Do you mind me asking what font you used? I won't be using it for this so don't worry, just really like it and would love to use it for something in the future. Or did you design it yourself?

Thanks, no problem i'll work one or more up into a complete design.

OK, I've really no idea what I'm doing, first time doing this kind of stuff, hence the simple design, so please comment.

I have a few more very different ideas so be warned.

Hope that worked, this is my first draft of a complete design. I tried to keep the trees and the rings running throughout, using 6 on the cover for the 6th volume, and because most tracks from previous oots have an organic, natural vibe. Hope ye like it, any suggestions, throw em at me

Cheers guys, and appreciate the kind words regarding the cover. Hope the rest suits and looks okay!

looks beautiful, man.

And I don't normally weigh in on these things

Very nice work man!

cheers again guys!

Sure man, it's the omnipresent Gotham, only not in bold all caps, as it's usually being used.

Liking this a lot, but i feel it's a bit too similar to OOT4…

I thought the same, but I don't care because it's so gorgeous.

I mean, it's not TOO similar, whilst still being thematically consistent. Seems like a plus.

I hadn't even noticed to be honest, hopefully it's not a problem. Besides the circle I don't see much to be honest with you guys, but feel free to critique the stuff for sure. Hope it is a plus! ha

I do see some similarities, just the circles, but the rest of the artwork, I'm not so sure. Just my opinion though, and certainly was anything but intentional, just went that way with the idea I had. I feel it's different enough, the circles are there because of the concept I explained earlier. I'm glad you guys like it though. Am uploading the full artwork with a disc which I just finished now also.

Cheers rotane for the font name too! It's lovely Hope its a freebie!

Sorry for the somewhat of a repost, just added the cd design. The image with the full artwork, minus the cd of course, is a few pages back, and thought it may go un-noticed. Seems to be the cover all over the place. Feel free to delete the earlier post mods, if it's spam, if so apologies.

The disc is a little different, same imagery, but slightly more psychedelic colours, I thought some variation be nice and be a bit of a surprise when the case is opened (if it's chosen of course, ha) and i think the colours would look cool set against on the black plastic case.

Hope ye dig it lads!

that CD is stunning!
