Dean's words and Munch's SAHB covers put me in mind of the most fantastic album cover:



It opens up in several different directions into a complete comic book story. Just to sell a record. Amazing.

Bloody good music too:

or

All, some great album covers!

Can someone insert for me please, "London Calling" album cover . . . . so that you may be inspired to buy it. and/or infrom how to insert graphics ?(e.g. album covers)

Thank you

P.s. Jimi Henrix Electric Ladyland!!! Great/Classic bona fide collectors item!

Album covers is easy! Just go to Amazon, find & select details of album in question, click on "View Larger image", right click on photo & then left click "Copy location".

Open post, select icon of picture on top line (last but one on right) & paste link. Hey presto!

If you wish to post your own photos you've first got to upload them into a photo hosting site (Photobucket's good) & copy location from there.

Interesting to see how popular intricate and decorative designs are on this thread.

As someone who studied graphic design under a big influence of modernism, simplicity is what I find most inspiring.

Pink Floyd 'Atom Heart Mother' design by Hipgnosis, remains my favourite all time album artwork.

The fact that the exposure was not fast enough, and leaves the slight imperfection of the tail being slightly blurred, gives this a tiny bit of extra character, that adds the final touch for me.

The first Killing Joke artwork is pretty strong too.

Thanks Tonym.

Fingers crossed.

Darn!!!! I don't have the copy location button when right clicking.

This one Max?

When you hold this LP it does strike you as a stunning piece of artwork.
