Title: Cover art of Heroes and Thieves?
Post by: charmed23 on August 29, 2007, 09:56:08 pm: I went to The Inc. website and couldn't believe my eyes. On the "Featured Release" section, you can see a picture for "Heroes and Thieves". I thought it might be the cover art. See it for yourself.

Post by: IcyStorm on August 29, 2007, 09:59:41 pm: She needs to do some new photographs.

But nice find =] Although... the cover art seems strange because there's nothing (or no one) in the center >_>

Post by: Imaginary Ocean on August 29, 2007, 11:50:26 pm: It seems great. Vanessa Carlton up and Heroes and Thieves down. I guess in the center where's nothing they'll be a photograph from V.

It looks a tad bit unfinished(i.e the blank middle), but otherwise it looks great...

Post by: Martin. on August 30, 2007, 02:19:09 am: Ooh, I like that.

Like someone said, it seems a little unfinished so I bet they'll put her photograph on there.

Thanks!

Thank you so much.

But thanks anyway.

Post by: NoelleNC on August 30, 2007, 08:41:42 am: I think it'd be pretty if they do a portrait pic like the broach on the website... very old fashioned and classy.

Post by: Suicidalboobs on August 30, 2007, 01:29:45 pm: Yeah, that'll look nice with a pretty pic of V in the middle. I'm excited to see that album shoot.

Post by: soupdujour on August 30, 2007, 01:39:58 pm: I think if she changed her image she'd sell more records.
Title: Cover art of Heroes and Thieves?
Post by: MyMelody on August 30, 2007, 01:55:09 pm: Looks a little too much like Be Not Nobody. Exact same colors.

She's done tan, she's done green. I was expecting H&T to be blue or black or bright red or hot pink or... something.

(Although it still is a nifty cover.)

Post by: itsthefiveofus on August 30, 2007, 06:06:09 pm: eh you just speak your mind, I don't find it bad its just your opinion about the album artwork

I agree its a bit like Be Not Nobody but not entirely, I kinda like it. Plus I am sure its not the final like set in stone version they are going to use seeing that Vanessa is like not on it so yeah...
Title: Cover art of Heroes and Thieves?
Post by: Journey_to on August 30, 2007, 06:37:19 pm: I agree with whoever says the music is what's important:I'd accept my copy if its cover was a garbage bag with no detail whatsoever.....but that's just my opinion..I understand what people are saying:it's always nice to have a good cover...
Title: sweet
Post by: pswik91 on August 30, 2007, 07:56:41 pm: that looks really cool, even though it doesn't seem to fit with the heroes and thieves theme that well I don't think. It's more like the cover of Be Not Nobody. But either way it's still gonna be awesome!
Title: Cover art of Heroes and Thieves?
Post by: portions.for.foxes on August 30, 2007, 08:21:20 pm: Uploading pictures of unfinished artwork is pretty amateur. Seriously, why. And it's almost september, all this crap should be done by now.

There'll probably be a cameo in the center of the cover where the blank space is. I just hope it's a cameo of Vanessa.

And I think it fits perfectly well with the theme of Heroes and Thieves. I've always thought of cowboys and indians and the 1800's when thinking about the artwork for this album, and the cover portrays that same feeling.
Title: Cover art of Heroes and Thieves?
Post by: PianoPlayer12 on August 30, 2007, 09:48:52 pm: maybe that is the finished artwork...they could leave the space empty..even though that would be a bit ugly...
Title: Cover art of Heroes and Thieves?
Post by: serato on August 31, 2007, 03:34:09 am: I was thinking that maybe the album will come in a cardbox... and the center may be a hole and the picture or whatever may be under this card box...

or... maybe they'll try something new like... an holographic effect or maybe a mirror.... we'll have to wait a little bit more to know...

That would be great, I would love a cover like that.

Post by: nolitafairytale2007 on August 31, 2007, 09:21:34 pm: Did anybody notice the web mentioned a song called "House"? Did they mean "Home"? I haven't heard of a track named "house" that will be on the CD. Just wondering...
Title: Cover art of Heroes and Thieves?
Post by: itsthefiveofus on August 31, 2007, 09:38:57 pm: the name of it is Home...at first we were flip floping between home and house but its home shes played it live under home and in the mag articile its home so its safe to say, its home.

urgh! no way- they wouldnt do that. that would be so unbelieveably crappy. If they do i will lose all respect for them.

I also agree with foxes (sorry, name?) I mean they kept putting the release date forward so you would have thought they figured it all out by now :/
Title: i'm pretty sure.....
Post by: pswik91 on September 02, 2007, 12:22:55 pm: Ok I'm pretty sure that the picture they are gonna use for the cover of Heroes and Thieves is the red picture the used on iTunes for the single of Nolita Fairytale. I mean it fits prefectly into the little circle. They probably will just color it a different color. :D And if you look at the tiny cover on The Inc site the picture from the Nolita Fairytale single off iTunes fits in there perfectly.

Post by: soupdujour on September 02, 2007, 12:23:29 pm: She should be nude on the cover with her hands covering her breasts. I think that would be super cute!

I think that picture I said is gonna be on the cover no doubt about it. But nude? That's so not even V, it's just trashy. :roll:

Why is it trashy? The human body is the most beautiful form of art. And Vanessa's hot so there's nothing trashy about it.

That's what I'm guessing the cover of Heroes & Thieves will look like. I use paint to edit this the best I could lol! :D

Post by: IfICouldFall on September 02, 2007, 02:00:18 pm: Actually, I love the nude idea but probably not on this album. The human body IS the greatest work of art, and it would be so beautiful. But its up to Vanessa lol. She's probably not gonna do it. :lol:

I just thought it would be cute because she's used the same style for all her albums and a nude cover would be really edgy and sophisticated. :D

Post by: cassiemoy on September 02, 2007, 05:29:30 pm: mmm. it's not atrocious. i think i like it more than be not nobody cover, and be not nobody cover and this aren't very similar except for the colors...

it looks like the cover of some leatherbound, elegantly gilded book. like... a book of fairytales. =] yes?

Post by: itsthefiveofus on September 02, 2007, 08:39:15 pm: I am sure we will get some sort of like track list conformation and a final cd cover soon I mean its coming out next month so I would not be surpirsed if all that stuff is released in the next few weeks by The Inc or Universal
