I had already created the image on the picture previously using those tutorials I posted. I placed this image into Photoshop and held down the Shift key whilst making the image smaller to fit so as not to distort it. I placed it so that it fit in with the shape of the text to be visually appealing. To do this I had to make the layer containing the image go below the layer containing the text so that there was no overlap.
The box at the bottom was incredibly annoying to make as you can't alter the shape of the box after you have placed it, or at least I couldn't figure out how to anyway. So, after many attempts of trying to place the box perfectly I finally succeeded. The box is coloured yellow to evoke the old horror movie posters which often had yellow boxes on to stand out and convey sickness. Next I uploaded an image of a barcode and of the DVD and Stiff Records logos. I wrote a couple of lines where the copyright info will be, though this isn't finished as you can see. Then, to fill the gap, I wrote the name of the album in the same font as on the front cover.
