Damn I'm so discouraged from making new threads now. Well I guess I should just post on existing threads and try to fit in...  :hat
I don't think there's anything wrong with repeating some threads every now and then. Many people are new here and want to share their opinions, and even the old ones might have changed their opinions. If you don't like the thread, don't post.

Yeah, don't worry about it.

Octavarium. I'd love a poster-sized print for my room.

My really out-of-left-field first answer is FII.  Love the colors in that one.

Some other great ones are 8vm and BC&SL.

If you look closely at the I&W artwork from a perspective view... it's just major fail!
But so was photoshop 2.0 at that time.  ;) But the look and feel was/is really good.

No fans for the GREATEST HIT cover?
I thought that was really clever and funny. Yeah, you all know I'm a big Hugh Syme fan. Love all his work.

I thought the GH one was a bit lame. Speaking as a bit of a fanboy for both DT and Hugh Syme, it just didn't do the trick for me.

I'm sure the main reason it isn't counted is simply because it's not a DT album. (Well neither is ACOS, but at least it's an EP with new recordings).
Only King could mis-spell a LETTER.
Yep. I think the only party in the MP/DT situation that hasn't moved on is DTF.

ToT for sure, but SDOIT is very appealing in its simplicity. Both represent the albums very well.

SDOIT is the best for me followed by SFAM.

I actually really don't like the Awake, Images & Words, A Change Of Seasons, and Black Clouds covers. Just a collection of things put together, not a fan.
This, exactly.

Love SDOIT for the textures, colors, and simplicity. Love SFAM for the composition.
