Yes I know the last two are out of chronological order.  Some of these I had to look up because I barely remembered them, and some listed here are out of print. 

Though one for me, although there are at least a third of the entries listed here that I would not consider good at all. I did ended up voting for the Delicate Sound of Thunder, because I pondered how the interaction between the two men on the cover would unfold.

I honestly love the album art for "More". Very surreal and lovely colors.

Tough call between Animals and Meddle (Saucerful of Secrets is also up there)
let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

Wish You Were Here for the guy that actually got set on fire to make it. LOL
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

I will obviously go with The Final Cut since it's the most personal album cover that conveys the record's mood quite well and was designed by Waters himself.

Animals, but A Saucerful of Secrets is another favorite of mine.

Tough between Animals and WYWH, but it seems someone moved this to the appreciation thread too so I can't vote.

Can whoever moved these album cover polls please move them back again? 
 
Oh go on.
 
Pretty please!

I put this in the Polls section when I created it.  I didn't move it here.  

If no one else can vote then I guess my hard work putting it together was a waste

I really like Pink Floyd covers, I find them very original and interesting, even if more often than not I don't understand what's going on in Storm Thorgenson's mind. However, I rather have a hard time choosing a faovourite. Also, I certainly don't see any reason for this thread having been moved from section and the poll closed. I would have liked to see how the voting would have gone on.

If I was allowed to vote in this poll it would be for DSOTM.  Beautifully simple and effective.  Saucerful was excellent too. 
 
Ummagumma and Animals are good but the others leave me cold.

Actually, the compilation A Nice Pair's cover was pretty weird.
Music is some kind of art.

It would be nice to get some kind of response to why these polls can't either be moved back to where they started or if you continue to be picky?  Put them in the GENERAL POLLS. 
 
But at least a yes I hear you but....... might be a little less rude than nothing.  Angry
