Knowing photoshop =/= Knowing graphic design.

With the last statement - I agree. However I think that just the fact that someone isn't an educated graphic designer it doesn't mean they aren't creative in their own way and that what they've done doesn't look good. Keeping up with trends isn't everything and I think that so many of Ayu's covers have been pretty stale and boring lately. I can't really remember the last time I was WOW-ed. So atm any change is better than the Love songs~Love again~LOVE~again~FTL/MGR color schema and those boring fonts.
