That's strange... I can't find a cover art with a sharper pic than this.

Yeah, I think our previous picture of that cover was blurrier as well, but the current one's the same as on emkog.com, so I think it's OK as it is now, unless a good picture of the original artwork (from original LP or CD) could be provided.

The picture's fine, Thomas. Actually, it's too sharp, too clear. That's the problem.

I just received my copy of the Bantam to Behemoth, and, as you say, David, the cover looks blurrier than our current cover picture. I've been thinking about it, and I'm inclined to change it back to the previous one. This one was it?


This looks "better", IMO. Any objections, Eugene?

I think the way the cover art looks less good because the file was not correctly compressed.
Maybe if one of the collabs could try to save it again in another format it would look better, but otherwise you should just put back the old one.

There's nothing wrong with the current picture, IMO, it's just that it doesn't look like the cover on the CD. It's a question of what we want; a sharp, clean picture of the cover or a picture of what the cover really looks like? I prefer to go for the latter, but I'm fine either way, so I'll leave it up to NotAProghead to decide, as he was the one who made the change in the first place.

In that case I agree you should follow the guidelines and use the original.
I actually assumed that it was just a higher resolution than the original, but when it's really a different cover it shouldn't be there.

Yep, blurred Anderson's pants on your avatar, Audun. Smile Looks like it's inspired by Censorship thread. Confused

As for the album cover, the site policy is to have the original, no matter how bad it is. LOL
I've changed it. Though no wonder if one day somebody will replace it with the "better" one.

Yes. Just a little silent protest.

I know the site policy about album covers, Eugene. Just didn't want to automatically override your earlier decision without checking with you first.
