Hey guys, well seeing as we're kinda on a tight deadline here (if we want the Chems to get a copy of this CD, at least), I'm gonna put forward my opinion and if you don't like it, please say so!
I vote:
Front cover - Robot.MX's IDM robot (with the title "Chemically Imbalanced" on it somewhere)
Inside cover - Iguanapunk's Picture 11 (the camo one - the credits will go nicely on it)
Back cover - anType's Forum tracklist
I think mippio said he needed a finished product by August 15th, so we really need a decision on the artwork by 2 weeks at the absolute latest. If it comes to it, I'll print it unless someone else (with a better printer) volunteers to ;-)

Front cover is ok. I really like the title, the robot isn't too special in my opinion but very adequate. A lot of people seemed to like it.
Inside cover isn't good, that's one of Ms. Iguana Punk's less inspiring ones. Maybe we could use one of his other designs if it's filtered to allow credits and stuff? (or we could use this one if it would take too much time to get an even better one)
Back cover rocks!

It's me being a cynic again but do you people think we can actually get those tracks mixed and sent to mippio in three weeks? The artwork is not that big of a problem but there is no use for it if the mix isn't ready at all.

chemicalfan, I think the artwork you want to use will be great. I totally trust your judgment when it comes to what compliments the array of tunes you have to work with (after all, you know each and every song that was sent to anType) I trust you the same as I trust anType mixing our songs together for the cd.
soundertow, you've given some honest feedback - which one of iggy's designs do you think would work best? Maybe post a couple of your favorites from iggy's collection so we can maybe see your vision of how the credits would look?
Well, I understand the concern of getting this done in a crunch and making it work. But what's done is done, and if it's not done in time for the fest that mippio is working, then so be it. Either way, we'll have the cd sooner or later or sometime. Personally I think the artwork is a big deal, a really big deal actually and it's not fair to robot, anType or iggy if we start to lose sight of that and undermine its importance in the forum cd project.

yeh, that sounds like a good selection chemfan, youve got my vote :)
my sentiments exactly :) if it gets here wicked, if not no big deal, i'd rather we took a bit of time over it and made it ace then rush it, and there will always be opportunities to get it to the chems :)
