This post used to have infor­ma­tion about the SXSW cover art files I made on a whim. Now you can get that infor­ma­tion from a new per­ma­nent loca­tion instead.

    This design looks much cleaner to me. The cur­rent post now looks more like one of the fam­ily. Good work. I’ll wait for Denny to post before I give final approval. ;)

    On topic: I never cared about album art before I got the Apple TV, but it makes a cool screen saver out of all the album art in the iTunes library, so I have a new appre­ci­a­tion for these files. I really like what you’ve done. You have a good sensibility.

    Thanks to yours and Denny’s com­ments, I did make a few changes for the bet­ter. I think this is the end of changes for a while. A cou­ple of other sites need the atten­tion right now.

    As for the album cover art, I barely made any cre­ative deci­sions at all. The col­ors, let­ter­forms, graph­ics, all came from the SXSW mate­ri­als. I just put them in a square format.

    Okay, that said, I did just upload a new ver­sion of the 2006 cover. I looked back at the orig­i­nal PDF, and thought I’d try to match the lay­out a lit­tle more. The result is much more pleas­ing to me.

    But of course. Let me know if you find any others!

    Thanks for the 2008 art. It’s too bad there isn’t an offi­cial tor­rent download.

    Is it still pos­si­ble that they’d put it up dur­ing or after the festival?

  7. […] you remem­ber, last year I made art­work for the 2007 mp3s. Danny Novo incor­po­rated that art­work into a set he has made for this year and pre­vi­ous years. This makes things pretty in iTunes or on your iPod. […]
