Creating picture covers for your songs

MORZ42 · Post by **MORZ42** » Mon Aug 13, 2012 8:30 pm

I want to make my own art/photo covers for my music but I'm kind of stuck, since I'm not into Photoshop and neither do I have any artistic abilities.

How do you guys make your cover pictures? Is there an easy way or is this a dumb question?

i don't really need covers or anything because my music isn't released anywhere but i always like to find some cool pretty pictures for my tunes on soundcloud

but if you really want to actually make your own art but don't own photoshop and don't have any artistic abilities, it kinda narrows it down to doodling on microsoft paint. or you can take photographs? sometimes you can nail it even if you don't have an expensive camera or much of an eye for photo opportunities

If it's just for Soundcloud images, I'll generally do a quick Google Image search on whatever words are in the name of the track and pick something appropriate.

i would screencap pics of dubstepforum things you like
mayeb one tune can be

or take a pic of the screen using a nobile telephpone then use that pic as your artwork
it will certainly be originidigital and there will be no copyrute problems

If ur not a photoshop fiend and u dont have any artistic skill, u have to either find some graphic designer student like for example Night tracks or pay someone to do it for u, like me.

That's a really cool site. There are people there who'll design things on Photoshop for 5 bucks, which isn't half as bad. Thanks!

That's what I do now, but I'm just afraid I'll run into copyright issuers at some point.

I make most of the art for my own personal tunes!(and a couple for some others as well)
Watch youtube tutorials for anything you need to know and reed up on photoshop! It really isnt too hard to learn, but it takes time to nail it!

Here's some of my work!

Some of which I have not released yet(oops) & some concept ideas

If you need anything done, or any questions about photoshop feel free to hit me up!
But if you want something done please be detailed and nice, I do it for free
