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.
Thanks for doing this!!

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?
[...] 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. [...]
