MR Back Online for the New Year!
Tons of people have been emailing me or IM-ing me regarding the status of MR. Here’s the scoop: If you were a member of MR then you should have received an invitation to re-register at the newly opened MR. They are working hard at restoring the site to its previous glorious self so be patients! In the meantime, help to get the MR community rolling again!
Oh yes, and Happy New Year everyone in the cover world!
Olly Moss Does Posters
On of my favorite indie designers is, without doubt, Olly Moss. The designer of the famous Spoilt tee at Threadless, Olly has been busy creating some awesome vintage style poster art of popular movies like The Deer Hunter, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, and American History X. I love this stuff, as it reminds of one of my old passions. Make more Olly, make more!
Where’s Wally….I mean iCoty!
Has anyone seen or heard from iCoty?
He’s dark haired, dark eyed lives in Hawaii (lucky sod) …likes ice cream from the look of his pictures and is missing…
Sorry VA hasn’t had any updates but I’ve not had time to make any posts. If you have anything you would like to be put on here then let me know by emailing me at admin@thecoverworx.com and I’ll do my best to get it up on VA.
Until iCoty makes his spectacular entrance back that is 
… Which I’m sure he will!

iCoty is on walkabout and I think real life has taken him away from us for a while, but until he is back with us I think we should go ahead and do Round 4.

Here is the official word from Loudoom about the new EFX…if you haven’t already checked it out then I would advise you to do so now And I whole heartedly agree about the super friendly staff, EFX has a great attitude and it really comes across that they love what they are doing, and have great respect for all members, especially their artists!

The EFX team have taken this change as an opportunity to expand their forum base to integrate “multi-interest” categories.

There is now diverse interest range for members to choose from including Photography, Digital Design, Entertainment Media and Home Theatre to name but a few.

Registered members can set up their own blogs, create their own galleries, play the arcade or simply watch videos. The single most important feature of EFX is the fact that the site belongs to its members they have the opportunity to voice their preferences and input to any future improvements that they may wish to see there.
The site has a user-friendly interface and super friendly staff. As always, EFX strives to be different and welcomes “radical approach” ideology in the world of Cover Art.
