Get On Your Boots single cover ideas

How closely will GOYB artwork follow the albums?

 

[Y2K]

Is this more photography by the artist who came up with the album cover?

I like that pic.

To be honest, they really can't do any worse than the covers of the singles from HTDAAB. God awful.

I liked COBL's cover. Vertigo's was horrible.

Just took another look at them all. COBL is the best...of a bad bunch

I actually think that would be a good cover (minus the "additions" )

oh god, i remember the 90's, my time in Egypt, the hangovers...

we tried to sell the Pyramids to the Japanese through a firm provisionally titled "Global Village Realty LLC." but it didn't pan out. If they could have moved them to Tokyo, sure, and you know those bastards were willing to try. So the deal went south and we were reduced to sitting on our balcony drinking black market rum, Stella's Lager, and smoking turks while watching the worlds largest fireworks display over the top of the great pyramids.

I remember the camels smelled like shit, and their herdsmen wore boots. They spoke broken english, but our diplomat/tour guide was very well versed and would often tell us to "get on your boots" which mean we needed to hustle and find some more investors. Last thing i remember was walking around the base of the Sphinx with a maiden and some booze, where we passed out under a full moon with the cacaphony of the desert and the adjacent city of Cairo West. Next day i awoke on an airplane, a 747 headed back to civilization. I was wearing the same old clothes from the night before, with some sand in my shorts and the odd pair of boots.

gosh dang those half Japanese girls, they do it to me every time.

I'll bring home the turkey if you bring home the bacon.

Someone had posted some more Sugimoto photos so I used this one. Thanks to you 'thelaj' for the font! I used 911 Porsha font for the 'B' because the Chuba one is a square.

But that's just a stupid dream that I won't realize

You sure? I used Chuba on my cover....

 

[Slipstream]

hmmm..... I used that link you provided and I downloaded Chuba 08 Normal. Here it is in caps and lower.

That is what I used. Capitalised.

 

[Slipstream]

ta.....ya it says I already have that font in Windows. The one I have is this one - Chubu 08 Font | dafont.com

Hmmm....very odd....I'm trying to change the properties on the font file so I can compare both but my computer is not agreeing with me yet.

 

[thelaj]

I'm so sorry.... this is the right one
Third one down:
Samson Font | dafont.com

I like the U=2 symbol in the bottom right of this image! Good stuff, well done!

But that's just a stupid dream that I won't realize

And I'm jello, baaaby...

over all these awesome covers!

 

[Slipstream]

oooooohhh......ha ha....I thought I was going mental....no worries.

The "U" and "2" on Samson seems heaps better. We only know that fonts for those two letters so far so I guess Chuba and/or Samson could be used until we know. I might just keep using Chuba then for text except I'll use Samson for U2.

Here is another one I did which took forever. I think I have about 30 something layers in it

 

[Niceman]

So, I downloaded the chuba font. Now how do I introduce Word to it???? Thanks....

 

[Slipstream]

Do you have Photoshop or something similar?

Just go to Start->Run, type 'Fonts' (obviously without the quotes), press enter, and copy the fonts you download into there. It will be on normal font listings then.
