It's not really 'poor quality', but it is actually the wrong cover altogether:

http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=20942

It should be this instead:



As far as I know, standard-level Collabs like myself cannot change album covers ourselves, so I thought I would bring this to everybody's attention.

I wasn't the one who initially added this, by the way.

Though I had to make some pictures smaller, because cover images on PA should "weight" less than 100 kB.

Don't think thats the case anymore. I've used bigger.

Now its...

Zevious's After the Air Raid
This should be better
If it's too big
Les mains, les pieds balancés
Sur tant de mers, tant de planchers,
Un marin mort,
Il dormira

Pretty much the entirety of Dir En Grey's discog needs revamping except for the last two or so LP releases. Just thought I'd throw that out there, since nobody except me seems to care about this band anyway. LOL

Well, if I had the ability to change it myself, believe me I wouldn't bother inconveniencing you.

Check them out now. Some of the entries are a bit haphazard I concentrated on the covers. A lot of releases are missing.

Couldn't do any better myself. Smile Later on, I'll look into what aspects of their discog need to be added/re-worked. I'm able to do pretty much everything but change the artwork once already posted, so I should be able to fic those issues myself.

Its mostly singles missing. Does anyone really care about that? An EP that is worthwhile adding is missing too.

This one has a low resolution:


Manfred Mann's Earthband - Solar Fire

This one is probably better:

All the Mona Lisa album covers that can be seen right now on the homepage are absolutely awful.

Some of Styx's albums could use some brushing up...specifically their compilations.
