I think it's so much easier to use (and more intuitive) than Photoshop because you don't have to click between 'layers', everything is considered an individual object. (There are still 'layers' you CAN use, but I don't use them very often.) Resizing/rotating text and picture boxes is a breeze, just click apple+shift, click and drag.
If you know InDesign, this CD cover would take two minutes flat to recreate. Import the image, add the E=MC2 text, then write MARIAH and put in a text gradient and lower opacity.
to be fair though, something can be really easy to make and still look good.
and yes this is nothing but some big font with a gradient (first i thought it was avenir, but the M is wrong. then i thought maybe gill sans, but the R is wrong. idk) on a photo, but it's not an eyesore.
im questioning my tastes now
it's simple and classy, therefore a good album cover
