Would you have chosen this pic for the cover ?

VIRGIN TOUR VHS

I personally think they could have done better, it's not a very flattering picture of M and it looks like she has a double chin. There are tons of better shots from the virgin tour. I understand that they wanted to go with a "fun & crazy" pic there are many other pics from the show with that vibe where she looks really better. I don't know, face and body position are not the best here imo...

It's hard for me 2 b objective, cuz I grew up with it....

But from a technical perspective it looks like an amature picture taken with a kodak.

But this one just looks out of focus, if only slightly so.

Oh I thought that one was okay.

Wtf was up with The Girlie Show? Of all the images/oufits they could have used. How dull.

DWT is beautiful.

And I've grown to love the CT cover of M burping.

But yes, I agree about VT. While I've always loved it as a kid, it's a pretty bad photograph because it looks completely amateur shot with a dull flash. Should captured the stage lighting. Is it bad to say that Guy O takes better pictures?

Cuz of the tacky fonts & drawing shit...It's Paisley Park Art Design 101.

Oh right. And the Hanky Panky music video had a similar budget to most of Prince's.

Even though it's not the DVD of the tour, the cover for IGTTYAS was a stab on my chest for me at the time:

I don't think it's that bad. I think fans expected something pretty, or Madonna shown in motion. I like the booklet design even more.

Well it's one of the better ones sadly.

Nearly all of her album covers are good though. Apart from Hard Candy. My God :lmao:

What didn't you like about the fonts?

I would have preferred them using the actual fonts used to promote the tour. Plus I'm still baffled that they used a tilde in the text, I think that's what bothers me the most.
