Those are, indeed, some excellent-looking submissions. I'd be interested in a cover contest, although I think Tool would rather rely on "professional" artists...but hey, it would be cool...

Interesting article. I like the theme Adam talks about for the next album...
But they're seriously considering using that picture as an album cover? Please tell me they'll find something better than that.

Those NIN covers are actually sad. Most of them look like they
would be covers for crappy goth/electronica bands who
can only be found on tribute albums.
The only one I like is this one and it looks too much like something from the Fragile.
Blah.
And... having that deepsicks thing as the cover wouldn't change
how the music sounds. I wouldn't mind.

that chick in the middle is fine.
did adam really say that? I thought it was a joke at first, but then it started sounding serious and was agreeable to read.... I suppose.
but I hope they go with something visually cool as hell.... nothing tops that moment when the screens roll down and you see the alex grey man wave at you.
that shit blew the entire audience away.... at least.... it blew the impressionable youth away.

There are when you first purchase them, but they don't print the PA directly onto the packaging.

I have a sticker on my Opiate case and my Undertow case; the stickers on Ænima are forced to the shrink-wrap because you can't stick them on the case for obvious reasons.
