This was one of my spur of the moment creations... all of it was done using photoshop. I combined a couple different a backgrounds of light and dark blues together for the overall background color. Next I combined some secret sauce elements to get the basic texture and to make the screen appear as if it's dipping in from the center to give the image some weight so it wouldn't appear so flat. Next to last step, I laid the title font and artwork over the background and centered all of it with photoshops ruler guides. Finally, added craquelure texture over entire image which enhanced the underlying texture and made the image pop. Also, played around with the image sharpening tools and adjusted the colors just a tad bit for deeper and richer color. It only took 4 hours for this one, but it's become one of my best designs.
