So let's say you are cool and post album art instead of just typing out the title and artist. This is very cool and we all love seeing album art. But then some of us aren't indie enough to know what some things are just by the art. Things like this happen:

I'd be interested to see your thoughts on this when you have some.



This is easily one of my five favorite albums of the year (so far), but I'm a sucker for this type of shit in general. I love the sound of it.


You can't even tell what it is by the URL.


I don't know what the solution to this is, or even if there is one. I suppose it could be as easy as just asking what it is but that's just not the same.

I agree, and I post the album titles along with the pictures. I know that several people browse with images off so a post with just images would appear blank to them.

I also answered your question regarding that album in the NP thread.

yeah, my initial thought was, how would that function make it any easier than just typing out the title and artist underneath the image?
