It's not bad but you should alternate colors instead of sticking with a bland yellow. Just my 2 cents tongue.gif

it seems like a bit much for a CD cover. you're supposed to be able to catch an eye too many words are unattractive to the eye.

i like the ali idea though :]

It looks a bit much for a photo montage. Try reducing the photos, maybe make some gray scale and have only one in color. Since the quality of the photos aren't that great, you might want to create some focus effects like Gaussian blurs, offset shadows, S curves in the contrast. May be do some gradient masking to each photo. Then create some sweat or enhance the texture/sharpness on your main Ali photo. Make the font more rugged with or decayed. A little blood wouldn't hurt and some hollywood photo stars (camera flashes) in the background. With the font tone down on the Gaussian blurs, try typing each of the font letter individually at various font heights and stagger them a bit. Or you put some of your font's in perspective. Also you can lower the Exposure/Gamma of the pictures. Or an inverted grey scale/ black and white.

I hope these Ideas work. I remember I did a color pencil of Ali in high school art class.
