had some time to relax and play around, so i made another cover for my mp3 player

its made from heavily edited architectural pictures found on the internet
mirrored, layered, filtered, etc.

i made the text in Inkscape, its much more comfortable

It looks good. The top part reminds me of one of those alien invasion movies where the mothership is moving over a city.

It looks very alien. I like the background part, it's like a night scene.

I'm glad you took the free time to relax! ;)
I think it looks good, not sure which style of music it would go with...Something harsh sounding I think.
Still Nice work! ;D

I never would've have guessed it was a factory, sure makes for a cool alien ship look when Gimp magic is applied.
I love the picture you made the bottom part of the image from. It's a interesting shaped building caught at a good angle.
