I have a tendency to look at album covers and if they look nasty I don't buy them but if they look interesting like some of the covers I have pictures of I tend to lean more towards those cds. Many do not think of cd covers as a work of photography with the use of photoshop. What really goes on to create these covers is actually a lot of work and creativity. There are many tutorials out there that will walk you through different steps to create different images that many cover artists use.
I found many different tutorials on creating cd covers, I couldn't pick one that really stood out to me that would be the most beneficial to share. It all depends on what you are trying to accomplish. My advice to you when you look at your pictures and compare them to models, singers, or actors, is do not be dissappointed. They take an ordinary picture like we see all the time and doctor them up on photoshop. Anybody can accomplish thier look if they put effort and time into their project. I find many people are dissappointed when they see famous people in real life. They are not as pretty as they look in the magazines and other media.

CD covers are really pretty most of the time. Some are really cool, as well.
i do that same thing, if i dont like the cover i wont buy it!
I think that how creative the cover is and how cool or whatever it is, really shows how creative the artist is.
I don't buy a cd unless i know i like them i don't so much look at the cover. Such as Hinder, i don't like there cover but i like their music. although, attractive covers get my attention.
I dont buy cd but if I see a hot girl i think I would buy it.
I bought Scotty McCreery's CD because I get to see him!!
Very good points Angela!
I agree! Unless i'm looking for something particular i judge a CD by it's cover.
Check out some old school rock album covers. They all come from acid trips I swaer.
Good point! I do the same thing with books. I definately judge a book by it's cover.
Sometimes I will buy a cd even if the cover isn't the best.
I think it's interesting what kind of background is put behind the artist or band. I'm sure not too many are really on a tarmac or in a field.
