I'll field this question... As a designer, there are certain clich?s you must not tread upon. One would be the expected orange vinyl and an orange diskette as mention in the quoted message. Though a clever idea, I would imagine you would have to do something interesting with it. Here are some other clich?s that a designer must not apply to a cover layout: Bass speakers, a picture of the band / group / or artists involved (with the exception of Mr. Aphex), the ever popular technics 1200 mkII turntable, the TB-303 (seen quite often in some form or another on those DJ mix CDs)... Anyway, I'm sure you and everyone else has the idea by now. But I'm sure Gonzi has a more simple anser to the question. === jason >>> underscore: http://www.gl.umbc.edu/~nworth1 underscore mailing list http://www.egroups.com/list/underscore designstorung: http://members.xoom.com/jm45675/Designstorung.html _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?
