E30 Zone

As the title says, here's your chance to get creative!

What you submissions need is:

* Front Cover

* Rear Cover

* CD Sleeve

If you have access to software that will sort the layout, feel free to use it.

The Front Cover should contain the title "E30 Zone Classics - The Ultimate Driving Collection"

I have added E30 to the title so it has a little relevance if non zoners see it.

Rear Cover should contain the track list:

ACDC - Back In Black
Black Sabbath - Paranoid
Motorhead - Ace of Spades
Metallica - Enter Sandman
Linkin Park - In The End
Foo Fighters - Monkey Wrench
Arctic Monkeys - I Bet That You Look Good On The Dancefloor
The Cardigans - My Favourite Game
Fleetwood Mac - The Chain
Rolling Stones - Paint it Black
Blue Oyster Cult - Don't Fear the Reaper
Stone Roses - Fools Gold
Kasbian - Club Foot
808 State - Pacific State
New Order - Blue Monday
Baby D - Let Me Be Your Fantasy
Liquid - Sweet Harmony
Faithless - Insomnia

In that order.

The CD cover should have the name as a minimum.

As far as images go, anything e30 related goes. Be they your own personal shots or favourites from the interweb.

Here's a link to the thread of images I collected a month ago.

Ignore the ramblings in the opening post.

I hope the mods can tell us what typace they use for e30zone banners, as well as stickers etc, I feel that will have relevance to the designs. An update on that mods, would be great.

Get your creative caps on, get your 3 images submitted. Will give you lot 2 weeks to get something together. Please say if you need longer, if enough people are struggling, I'll extend the time limit.

Please do not plagurise other zoners photoshopped images, though untouched images are fair game.

I look forward to seeing what you guys can do, there's some Ninja designers on here!!!

My avtar would look 'kool' as the front cover...

Whats the font used in the forum banners?

Sorry Daimler, that picture sucks!!

Pyros, mods will get back to us about the fonts

It's too small dude!!

Sounds like a bit of fun. Good call on the idea

Just a simple idea to get the ball rolling eh.

Thanks mate.

Looks good too.

Here's some drafts I put together (I'll call them drafts so that I can get away with posting 4!). I've not bothered with backs or sleeves yet, these are just to give some ideas of different styles.

This one's...er.. just some mad vectors and a silhouette. Seemed to come together pretty well though.




Stained glass window. This one look twice as long as i thought it would and looks half as good! Poor choice of a car to begin with. If I do this one as a final draft I'll use a 3/4 shot and the car will be much bigger. In fact, I'll change the window design too. This is just to see what people think of the concept.




This one is my crack at a Resevoir Dogs kinda style.




And this one is some shameless recycling of an image I made ages ago but never found a use for.





I'm really liking Mox3d's design though - clean and simple, looks really professional

My girlfriend does stained glass work. I'd be interested to see other drafts of this to see if she can use it for my garage window

Some Fantastic work here, keep it up!

The stained glass is hilarious. Good one

Nice and simple thats what you want

looks

At the moment it's the only entry.....

Looks like Mox3d ,ay win this by default!

Alyman???

how about a 100% effort not really what you asked for entry from a girlie?

this has taken me almost 2 weeks to do - so i deserve my gold star for effort and determination.

and i don't have a proper photoshop or real time to do it in. (mummy all day from 7am, then wine advisor til 10pm)

Wine advisor, lol!!!

Thank you for the effort, you do deserve a gold star!!! Or is it a paracetamol for the persistant hangover???

What program did you use?

I like the one in negative, would use up all our ink but worth it

hangover? i wish! i work in a wine and spirits merchants (wine rack) we don't get to drink at work unfortunatly, i will have those paracetamol though, my back is killing me - damn pregnancy!!

i used a freebie called ULEAD PHOTO EXPRESS 5 SE to do the pic part and publisher for the rest.

the negative one was done using the same image with an effect from photobucket

Cool. I'm surprised some more of our photobucket experts haven't submitted something.

TBH I thought this would be a busy one.

any more entries on this then?

when will the decision be made?

Decision was to be made last weekend, had too much on to do anything with it. I'm going to have a craic at it at some point, but been too busy.

I'd like to see some more entries, even if it is just the back and label to some of the suggestions above!

Times been tight for me, trying to get a grip on my dissertation at the mo so my numerous photoshop projects have been taking a back seat. Having a night off tonight though, so I'll post up something later this evening

Aly - Have you checked your email?? Something in there for you mate

Cheers mate, I hadn't spotted that
I'll PM you a different email address for future use, I've almost stopped using that other one, was getting too much junk into it.

No problem. Thanks again for your work

Thanks Aly!!

I vote for a clear CD cover with a CD inside with permanent marker deviancy.

"tut' zone soundtrack"

i like the Resevoir Dogs kinda style one looks brilliant !!!!!!!!!!!

Hmm. Bit of a nightmare finding the type of photo I need for my plan. I'll have another look tomorrow, might have to put up a picture request if i cant find the right thing. Basically I need a pic of an E30 front end, much like dominitry's picture in the COTM competition, but without the water and in high res. Also a decent pic of an instrument cluster taken from the driving seat.

Weather permitting, I'll try tonight for you.

Is there any chance of adding Celine Dion to that album??
