I know. It remind me of a collage a little kid would make in elementary school.
Still hard to believe its the cover...

...but oh well. *shrug*

Thank you for doing this Allie - I was so excited to find it! Eh, obviously I'm not very adept at posting.

OMG that cover is terrible!
Let's run a "design the Melodia" cover contest.
I'm not really interested in a signed copy actually, I'd much rather go to the store and get it on the Saturday.

IF indeed it is. Its too unprofessional to be a true cover. I think maybe someone is having us on.

It's a big step, going from the effective simplicity of VV cover to this, but I kind of like the cover, I think the perspective is fantastic, as well as how the photos blend in with the green background. What it bothers me, though, is the colors and the contrast - it's too inconsistent. For example, the centre photos of Hamish and Ryan would need more contrast and less brightness; on the other hand, Brad's centre pic needs quite some desaturation to match the other three.

Not fussed on the album cover, although the pic of Craig in the center is HOT!!!

I'm gonna order a copy very soon. as soon as I ask my dad to borrow his credit card

goooooood stuff
this way i will get it when i get home from holidays!!! I'm not going on the forum after the release till i get the CD lol I'll get too jealous.
hmmm, the cover art is weird
craig looks hot though

anyone got a bigger picture of it? how come this info hasn't been released on the myspace or DTI or anywhere else? OR ON THE MAIN WEBSITE
i wish they would update it

It looks better in this close up of the left side of the cover. It's actually not that bad after awhile just weird that this is their first album with real pictures of them on the front. Seeing the cover makes it feel like it's believable the album is actually coming out at last. Long wait.
I reckon this is their attempt at creating their own version of the "Revolver" cover art, Only in colour.

Jun 13 2008, 01:11 PM
I'm going against the grain here but i dont think the cover is too bad at all...Sure it would have been awesome if craig had done some amazing artwork for it...It's bright,kinda funky and will draw attention to the eye which is a good thing for the newer vines fans,i like the collage feel to it even if it's not up to other peoples expectations.If you look at it for abit it looks better,really it's not that bad it could have been alot worse!

Hey, yeah it looks so much nicer up close! I think the cover art is pretty cool and it will catch the eye whether people think it's good or bad.

I think the cover is awesome

. Especially when you see the close up of it. But hey, I wouldn't care if the cover were a picture of a scaling fungal skin infection. It's the music on the CD I care about, not the packaging. And from what I've heard the music will be brilliant

And i'm sure in real life it'll be even better. It'll be the album cover we won't be able to take our eyes off of.
