Personally I'd like covers reminiscent of RAINBOW or NEXT LEVEL

I like the RAINBOW cover. And my only problem with NL is the coloured jewel cases.


I don't think any of her album covers are that impressive though (sans mini album FIVE, which I adore). I prefer a lot of her single covers to her album ones. Eg: fairyland, INSPIRE, glitter/fated, L, Mirrorcle World and hbya are all gorgeous.

Yes, very basic image composition, a bland colour scheme and a concept that looks half-assed.

I prefer all-out conceptual, but only Party queen has ever attempted that.

Unfortunately, even though Party Queen has a strong message behind it there is the issue that on the surface it looks tacky. People are going to focus (and judge her) more on the immediate impression it creates rather than the depth behind it.

Nah, he just needed time to find his style. His photography over the last 3 or 4 years is incredible. Before that he was pretty...basic and not daring enough yet, he played it safe.

I want a fancy cover. It can be trashy, but still I want something fancy.

I like the CD only cover a lot.. the full body shot...
I would love for something like that again... her looking ADULT, in a nice elegant dress... she is beautiful and show it off more.

why isn't the CD+DVD cover believable?
