Anyone up for an IRC listening party? I know it might be tough to schedule around the holidays. Maybe this weekend sometime? —Site dude - S3 Agent #202 "It starts... when it begins" -- Ralf Kilauea |

Where are our volunteer graphic designers and cover artists? If someone doesn't come up with a cover design, I'm going to call this CD "The Daphne Blue Album".

I got some nice cover art from someone I don't know with a .gr email address. I've uploaded the covers to the archive.org page: http://www.archive.org/details/Surfguitar101.com2009Mp3Compilation If someone else wants to create alternate designs, go right ahead. I think we had multiple covers before in the past. —Site dude - S3 Agent #202 "It starts... when it begins" -- Ralf Kilauea |

That's a nice cover. No picture of a guitar, what a novel concept! Thanks to whoever did that. The designer should make themselves known. |

Actually the 2005 is my favorite of all the album art for the compilations. Reverb, It's A Way Of Life! |

To you complainers: this is totally volunteer driven. If you got something better, then submit it. —Site dude - S3 Agent #202 "It starts... when it begins" -- Ralf Kilauea |

Loud, Mean, Nasty!? Shut up! Are you talking about surf music? Keep up the critiques and maybe no one will volunteer to submit their artwork in the future. You can NEVER please everyone. I like the cover and it works nicely with the songs in the compilation, many of which are neither loud, mean nor nasty. |

Amen. And not even an attempt at anything retro. Kudos to the artist. |

It's perfectly ok not to like the artwork, but don't slag the effort. Some guy or gal spent probably several hours of their time making that for the site and getting it the right size, etc. and that is to be applauded. As I said before, anyone else is free to submit alternate artwork and then people can choose what they like the best. —Site dude - S3 Agent #202 "It starts... when it begins" -- Ralf Kilauea |
