Be better if we could see a bigger version, all I can say now is the top right corner looks too empty.

 

[NINE1TREY]

Bigger.

i dont get how the photography lighting goes w/ the radio show...

 

[BGN79]

seriously I have no idea what going on with this cover

 

[NINE1TREY]

Sorry everyone, its not a compilation of rims, bitches, rappers holding money, dogs, and jewerly! HaHa! Its not as tough as ya'll make it seem. Thanks for the feedback though.:knockout:

 

[BGN79]

well I never put bitches, rims, rappers holding, dogs or jewelry on my covers I am seriously lost at your concept behind shit seems pointless good luck selling units I hope your client is happy

Id throw in more to do w/ radio than having the lighting equipment. IMO

also throw the hosted by on the top right to fill in the dark area. again IMO

but not a bad start.

p.s. you need a officer w/ a nightstick in there somewhere.

Whats so pointless about it? What are photography lamps used for? To "shine light" upon a subject...correct? Maybe I'm wrong. But the idea and concept is to bring light to not only a show, but also the music that is being played. Thats the idea, obviously not executed very well I see!!! Anyway, I've been designing for a long time now and rarely do I post in here, thought I give it try. I was hoping for more constructive criticism than somebody being a smartass about what I'm trying do. And its really a promotional tool for the show, not an actual album looking to sell units. Thanks though.

Yeah, using the common radio themes were touched on and considered, but I try and make my design not so damn straight forward and obvious all the time. Make folks think a little. Anyway, the area in the top right is being used as "white space" but I myself even wonder if maybe the balance is not quite right. Maybe try putting the hosted there see what I think. Thanks. Oh and its not a "start" pretty much finished...haha!!! But thanks for some actual criticism I appreciate it, I think we all need it sometimes.

You cant be on here asking for opinions then getting mad when people arent telling you everything that you want to hear.

im just asking how this makes sense...like w/out SEEING the equipment it made sense...but but it doesnt...

Try using spotlights instead. IMO.

^ i agree

After seeing what people have said, which is appreciated, I'm starting to think that might work better. At least for what I'm going for. See what it looks like....a minor change.
