So, I love the Arctic Monkeys (a band), and was really excited about the new song Crying Lightning, however it has terrible artwork imo: here (http://www.arcticmonkeys.com/news.php#)

I was hoping to use this new artwork for my forum accounts, but obviously now I won't be

Knowing forums to be a great place to procure awesome art of this nature, I'm hoping somebody out there in the sgc or further afield may be able to produce something with Crying Lightning as an inspiration.

I realise I'm asking a lot, but hey, you guys have an outstanding reputation :thumbsup:

That is indeed awful.

Man, I wish I could draw well. If I could, I'd help ;-;

Omg, they've changed there band logo again? That's the third logo in three albums.

ok here your drawing

If he doesn't use that can I?

I did some quick photoshopping and came up with this:

Use it or abuse it as you see fit. :wink2:

EDIT:
Just realized that the lighning effect might be just a little too subtle, especially against the white of this site's background. Here's an update. Use (or not) the one you prefer. :)

Thats actually really cool, will definitely use this on my Arctic Monkeys forum profile - thanks a bunch :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

No problem. Took me about three minutes to mash together, so it's no great piece of art. ^_^

All the same it will no doubt make people on the monkey's forum jealous and I certainly couldn't have produced it

I don't see what's wrong with their album cover, other than the lack of "crying". However, I will agree that Gormash's picture would've made a better cover. It kinda reminds me of an Eric Clapton album, "pilgrim (http://media.photobucket.com/image/eric%20clapton%20pilgrim/artoshas/Pilgrim-Front_500.jpg)".

Yeah, they do work with a lot of different artwork, something which I've always liked, but this one is just awful. It is for an itunes exclusive release by Dominoe Records; which says a lot. Also it has little or no chance of chart success, so I guess i can understand the lack of effort... but still :angry:

Awesome, I didn't even know they had a new song out... Thanks for indirectly letting me know:thumbsup:

Kinda off topic, Sorry

Great New Artwork for a Great New Song

It said invalid URL after I copied the picture location.

Rightclick and save image to your harddrive. Then use an online photoalbum (I use Photobucket.com) and copy the URL from there. Shoul fix your problem. ;)

Guys, I think he's hinting that he doesn't want to use it as his avatar.
