TwistedElegance™ Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Since a lot of members have come and gone since 2006 i thought it would be interesting to get everybody's views on the 'Design Me' competition for 20 Y.O. Which did you like? Which were eyesores? Could you have done better? Did you submit an entry? My favourite was always #2, and I didn't mind #1. #3 was nice but I didn't think it was worthy of a win, and #4 was a mess. I appreciate the work that went into it (and all of them) but it really wasn't my taste. I didn't submit, but I wish I had. I think I could have come up with something pretty great if I'd put my mind to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatOtherFan Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Two!!!! There were others that weren't chosen that were REALLY good... much better than the other three. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escapade Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 #2 was hands down the best! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquaria Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 This is the reason I joined the forum #1 is good but the rest were terrible considering all the entries. I made 2 covers, I'm not sure if I still have them anywhere though. But I particularly liked one of them and its better than those 3 winners Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reyna ♔ Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 #2 was the best with #1 behind it. I never really cared for the other two. I have little idea as to why they were picked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ray. Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 none, tbh. the last two tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSimba Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 My Microsoft Paint job was the best j/p ~ I didn't even submit; I knew better lol. Anyway, Aladdin's cover was my favorite (and happened to be the only one available when I bought it at the record store ) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utopia Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 really? yeah I really hate them all...

Bailey Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 I did one had it on my photobucket, the contest was run poorly because a lot of folks did some art that was waaaaay better I saved the pics I dont think I have them but some were really good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evil. Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 I was actually shocked any of these made the cut. I like the pop art feel of #4 but that font and placement bother me to this day. Didn't Aladdin make #3? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aed05 Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Its funny how people feel now as compared to 6 years ago, because back then folks thought "the kiss" was epic. Of the 4, 2 and 4 were and are still the best. 2 would still be hot today in my opinion. The third one never appealed to me and there were indeed some amazing submissions that were overlooked.

TwistedElegance™ Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 I never noticed #3 has an apostrophe in "YEARS". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquaria Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I never noticed #3 has an apostrophe in "YEARS". That's just the space between Janet's arm and torso Perhaps they picked covers that looked "fanmade" because that was the whole idea. If each one was too professional looking it might take away from the concept. At least that's what I'll tell myself I found mine btw Notice how all of her album titles are scratched into the side If I were to change anything now I would try and find a different main pic, she looks like a boxer or something 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwistedElegance™ Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 ^ I thought so at first, too. But if you enlarge the pic you'll see it's an apostrophe. Yours is brilliant, Roc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
