So amazing, love evanescence!.

But the weird thing in the upper left hand corner kind of takes away from the overall theme!.

I love it, you should send it to them :D hahaWww@QuestionHome@Com

I think the dark lighting on the chair rest!.!.!. I dunno what you call it, when you sit at the edge of a sofa-- the place where you rest your arm on!. Oh, armrest!. Yeah, I think the dark shade on the armrest takes away from the attention given to the face!. So I think you should lighten that shade, and center the picture around the idea that the first thing that grabs the viewer's attention would be the person's face!. Or rather, plan the image around the feeling, the emotion, you want the viewer to have when they look at your CD cover!.

And, I have a problem with the font you used for "Anywhere but Home"!. I think it is too open and happy a font!. The reason I think this could be credited to the width of the letters-- the more wide a font, the more serene the feeling is, like when you look at the horizon and see the ocean!. It is a feeling of expansion!. And also, like the letter M in Home here-- the font expands, it takes up space, it includes more!. I would think that a person who is thinking, Anywhere but Home, is more excluding of things she doesn't want, and is more of an introverted person!.
And since it seems like the wrong font to me, it takes away a little from the credibility of the image, of the girl!.!.!. which is pretty strong I suppose!.

And I think maybe you should make it so that your name of band and album cover isn't so big!.!.!. doesn't take so much space!.!.!. because the image of the girl can speak more of the message than the title!.
Alternatively, "Evanesence" is a nice size as it is, I'm not sure if it's the right size, but if it is, I think maybe you should consider repositioning it somewhere else!. Maybe more to the left, or more to the right, or down-left!.

And perhaps you should re-crop your image!. So either she is smaller and you can symbolize the crushing space of the house (or something), or you could include more of the chair, so it seems bigger and can represent how suffocating her house is and how little it makes her seem, and conversely how big the power it has over her!. I think the chair is a good representative of a style of a home!.!.!. like a mansion, where there's lots of empty space around, and no one knows where the other is (not connected to each other in a good way), but at the same time each member of the household can feel the tension in the air and emptiness of love in their house with each empty space!.
It looks like a chair you would find in a mansion, and by the way she's dressed-- you would think that a well-dressed person is happy, but this image is powerful in that it shows one who is not!.

Yup, good job, but upon another look I think that, though the make-up on her face is enough, even more splendor would be added if we could feel her pain more through the arrangement of her features into a painful expression!. Well, it would be even better if that pain was real-- not saying it's a good thing, but good songs are supposed to be truthful, and when you have an artist who is more truthful, then there is more connection and authenticity and trust between musician and listener!.!.!.

If she had a better expression, there would be more authenticity, and for the rest of the image is shaded well to give that emotion!.!.!.

I think the picture is pretty good as it is, you could bring out the green color out more if it is to be in the picture!. I would change the the font and over laying aspects though!. "Evanescence" is too pixelated around the edges and the yellow surrounding it and the vines is distracting, i would also try to make the anywhere but home part stick out less!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Emy, i think you did a wonderful job!. if i saw that cover on a cd at a store i sure would pick it up!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
