Today I present to you my first attempt at a fan album cover. As a fan of Hamster and his remixes, and as a fan of Giant Bomb, Here's the album cover for his "Dick Kicker" remix. I got my source image from Hamster's youtube video, which you can find here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qHL2Cpb1618
I paused it at the right moment so that looked similar enough to the original thumbnail. I only did it in 1000x1000, because the source image I had was only 1080x720, and after cropping it, it ended up being 1000x720. I extended it upwards a little and it became 1000x1000. I then copied the background color (which is a slightly bluish off-white color), filled in the empty area, then I added in the red gradients, making sure they were similar enough to the original thumbnail, shown here: http://i.ytimg.com/vi/qHL2Cpb1618/0.jpg
I then added in text, and while I didn't have the original font used (which I beleive is "Strada OT Condensed Semibold") I used Myriad Pro (which I feel is similar enough). However, I understand the need of some people for accuracy, so I've also included a textless version. Hey, some people may even prefer the textless version! Enjoy!
