I tried to add this cover: http://www.metalmusicarchives.com/album/random/pidanoma to this album entry: http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=44521, but something went wrong. I hope you can fix it.

I like it better than the real cover, which is probably why someone else out there created it for their blogspot post of it (though who knows where they acquired the image), and it got passed around until it ended up here. I have no idea who owns the rights to it, but the band and label definitely do not.
Here’s the real cover:

Thanks!

Thanks, but I still doubt - Google search results give the current cover. It would be helpful to have links to any band's resource (if such resource exists).

Sorry, I didn't see your response till just now. While the band had been together for 5 years, we split up right after the record was released. I was the drummer. The only resource is this old myspace page, but I no longer have the email address that created it, so I am locked out of it, and it doesn't have either cover photo on it, anyway, and as far as I know the original cover was never posted anywhere. I uploaded it to that site I sent you the link for the same day I sent you the link. The CD was only released locally here in Portland, Oregon, at the time, and I don't know where that image came from. I communicated briefly with the first guy who posted it on his blogspot to find out where he got it, but he said he didn't know and that he liked that cover better than the original I sent him, so he was going to keep using it. That's why it's the only one out there in googleland. I'm just worried that whoever the amazing artist is who painted that image and owns the rights to it will spot it or someone who knows him will, and then he'll come looking for us, very upset and threatening to sue. Let me know how I can prove all of this to you and I will. I'll even send you an original copy of the CD if you want. I still have a few copies in a box somewhere. Thanks again. -Brian

Thanks, Brian.

I see no reason not to belive you, the cover changed.

By the way, do you have the band's photo? We can add it to FICTION page: http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=7748.

Thanks so much! I'll try to dig up a photo of the band. I'm sure I have one somewhere.

Also, that site I uploaded the correct cover to changed the colors and resolution so extremely that it looks neonized and quite far from how it's supposed to look. If there's some other way I can give the 1MB jpg to you, let me know. It would be great to have it look the way it's supposed to. 

Thanks again!

^ It would be better to have good-looking 50-100 kB cover because 1MB after being automatically resized to 300x300 pixels will look no better than the current one.

^ Thanks, done.

The album cover is a bit fuzzy though. I guess it's because I had to save the picture as jpg and then autoresizing makes its effects.

We can make one more attempt if you post about 500x500 pixels picture (jpg or jpeg, the system does not load gif or png).

Thanks, but it's the band's photo. It looks OK: http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=7748.
I've meant the album cover is a bit fuzzy.

I'll tell a little secret. Sometimes you find a picture (jpg or jpeg), save it on your PC, add to the album, but it is not loaded (I have no idea why).

The following trick always helps:
- open Paint (or other image editor);
- copy pictute to Paint, save it (as jpg or jpeg) on your PC, then add it to the album page - it's a mystery to me why, but this always works.

True! Weird fact but true. I find myself re-sizing the images and re-saving them with XnView and it usually works! Tongue
