Here is a preview of my CD cover. So far I'm doing pretty well! I decided to keep the same background for both sides of my CD cover, because then I would be able to give the same effect I want the user/audience to feel when they look at my CD cover - which is cool. I also learnt today how to rotate and edit text in Photoshop from these Yahoo Answer Links at the bottom. They really helped me quite a bit!

The reason why I did not add in my band photo yet, is because I have trouble extracting me and my band members without anything else. Here is what I get, but for some reason photoshop forces me to add in some color in the background as well, instead of no fill. I will try to find a workaround for this, but for now this is what I am stuck with:
Maybe next lesson, I will be able to fix this!
