Ok! My name is Occultus Nocturne, and I am the lead singer of a extreme metal band called Ashur. The contest is basically to see who can make the best cover design for our up and coming release "The First Dark Age". I would do it myself as I am perfectly capable, but, well, I'm veeeerrry busy making the music for said album. I must stress that it must be very professional, and as we (everyone in the band) are extremely poor, it will be an act of charity, save for notariety when the album is released. I wil provide an explanation as to what we need done: The top of an old mountain, at the very top lies an ancient elaborate throne, carved out of, and surrounded by, the top of the mountain. There is noone in the throne, but there is an empty chalice at it's side. Surrounding the mountain is a desolate wasteland,comprised of rubble and bones. The sky is red, with flashes of lightning and Cyclones that ravage the empty earth. To the front of the throne, either standing, or runing down the mountain, needs to be evil looking characters clad in armor, depicting the three members of the band. (you can find our pictures as reference in my house) Myself,Occultus Nocturne, in front of the throne, to the left Smitchens (the guy with the guitar in my house) to the right, Lord Killgore (the guy with the rag on his head in my house). I will also put up the logo in my house as it and the title must be evident on the cover. It must be dark in nature, yet vibrant, as to stand out. Just post them here when you are done, and we apreciate any and all support. Thank you my friends. This means alot to me and the band.

Big CHANGE OF PLANS PEOPLE!!
Forget all I wrote up there, the album is now nameless and is a concept album. Here's the premise: Human woman loves vampire. Village burns woman for suspicion of witchcraft. vampire brutally attacks village, village hunts him down, theres a big showdown, and we dont know what happens to him, the vampire. Bad news for those of you who started already, but good news, because this is left open. We have no ideas, so run with it

2006-09-19 [the 5th apocalyptic horseman]: this place has gone down a lot during the last two or three years... it used to be a lot of fun but by now i find hardly a reason to come here any more...

2006-09-19 [Lady Elle]: me wanna try and help :P... not that I'll be any good at it or anything XD

2006-09-19 [Lothuriel]: Actually, you can leave a comment on MC, with the name of your contest, the deadline and the name of the host/hostess and it will be advertised on Mainstreet for a brief amount of time as long as it follows their guidelines.

2006-09-22 [The Matter of Splatter]: Done and done :) thanks :)

2006-10-03 [The Matter of Splatter]: Well this has turned out to be a real flop. I used to have so many friends here, now it feels so desolate. No help, not even a word of advice. I suppose now it falls upon my already burdened shoulders not only to write the music, and do all promotions, but now I am the bands regent graphic artist. This sucks.
