Ooooh, that's rather nice. I like it.

Yes. I am quite pleased actually. Maybe I will just make the epic have to do with dreams since I am stripping the album into one song.

That's actually pretty sweet. It reminds me of much more awesome version of the default Windows XP background.

I say you make the whole album one big track.

I decided to make serenity of a dream one song, but on separate tracks in parts like SDOIT.
Then have 3 other tracks that have nothing to do wit the concept.

icysk8r, I have to say, your original album cover reminded me a lot of the default Windows XP background:

I'm very impressed by petrucci07's cover though. Did you make that entirely with stock photos and Photoshop? If so, would you be willing to design a cover for my band's upcoming album? We'll be entering the studio next month, and while we don't have our exact design down yet, it's definitely high up on our to-do list in the coming weeks. If I PM'd you sometime within the next month or so with an idea, would you be up for designing something for us?

BlobVanDam · « **Reply #45 on:** June 22, 2009, 12:34:24 AM »

petrucci07, name your price quickly before everyone starts milking you for free!

Global Laziness · « **Reply #46 on:** June 22, 2009, 01:01:52 AM »

I'm not trying to be a jerk here, Blob, I'm just impressed by his work and innocently asking for assistance. No milk.

BlobVanDam · « **Reply #47 on:** June 22, 2009, 01:03:58 AM »

I know. I'm just saying that if this keeps up, he'll be in business

Yeah sure. I'm surprised people are so impressed by this, I appreciate it

And I used stock photos and a combination of Paint, MS Word, and Microsoft Picture It!

Global Laziness · « **Reply #49 on:** June 22, 2009, 01:24:02 AM »

Well you definitely have potential. I'll keep you posted once we get our idea finalized.

austin · « **Reply #50 on:** June 23, 2009, 10:23:16 AM »

but Petrucci's are pretty great

What did you have in mind for the back cover?

EDIT: Fixed with properly sized pic

I think i am still going to use petrucci's. Thanks for the offer for it though.
For the back cover I think I am probably just have the right side of the album work cover the whole thing, and have no bed.

True Death of Life · « **Reply #52 on:** September 17, 2009, 06:34:15 PM »

Wow, geeks on DTF!

Kidding. Those really are incredible, petrucci (and austin!). By the way, I happen to have written quite a few songs and I'm thinking about an album...

ich bin besser · « **Reply #53 on:** September 18, 2009, 05:42:36 PM »

austin, yours is great, too!!

ZachyDou · « **Reply #54 on:** September 20, 2009, 09:05:37 PM »

OK you did VERY VERY well for your tools.

If it's not too late, you may want to change the font color. White text on white clouds isn't a great idea.

Great job by those who made covers for icy.

No need to change it, I can't use them anymore. I decided to take all 7 of the tracks to that song off of the album. They weren't good enough. So back to having no concept on my album. Well, the suite is taking up most of the album anyways...

It looks like one of those Claritin commercials

But I like it.
