Undecided about recent art work. One thing you can say about WFTSC artwork is that it catches your eye. Everytime I visit the NO section of any store I always put WFTSC vinyl and CD at the front and it stands out (NO I'm trying to help boost your sales in my own feeble way. So will you help me and release ITEM in Oz? Thanks).

Is this the cover of 'Singles'?!

Vinyl in a shop? I haven't seen that in 10 years 
There was a full page ad in the Observer (UK Sunday paper) Music Monthly supplement yesterday, all the single covers to date in a thumbnail left to right, top down montage....
..and 'New Order - Singles' in that font underneath. The font, at least, is the real thing :(
No scanner access here, unfortunately.

I do! Link works!
The font type is absolutely disgusting.
The title of the compilation - SINGLES - is boring and not New Order-ish. 
They should be called somethinhg like TRUE SINGLES or RETIREMENT.
Looks like everything is getting worse with every release.
well, well, well... i guess it's going to some kinda "international"-desaster. if you check here Singles-Preview you can listen to some 30 sec.snippets! And if you start with "Ceremony" you can hear... it's the "substance"-version! guess it's the same with the rest (confusion, etc.). 
Aw fuck, really? Surely it's the 'original' Ceremony cover featured in the ad pictured elsewhere?
I personally loved the True Faith leaf skeleton. But yeah, who am I? If it isn't Saville, it just shows how good he is.
Oh for pity`s sake, not that lame piss poor, recorded on a dull boring monday shite substance version
why oh why oh why.why did that version turn out so fucking shite?.and a lot of people actually prefer it from the 7" gold sleeve version!.i give up .i really do.

C'mon, everoyne of us could make the same cover. One even did really - look at that Amazon boot with NO story and PFOD.... Nah... it's too hideous. Too nasty and tasteless, don't you see, poor man?
Please PLEASE PLEASE!!! NO MORE SODDIN, PISSIN, FRIGGIN, FUCKIN WHITE COVERS!!!
If it HAS to be minimalist to the point of catatonically boring, then go for BLACK for a fooking change!
Surely the preferred idea that would delight the fans is if they created a wonderful tiled montage for the front and back consisting of ALL 30 OR SO SLEEVE COVERS placed side by side in order in miniature - that way we get 16 squares for the front and 16 squares for the back. It would be a piece of art worthy of the New Order name.
And the track listing can sit inside the booklet or whatever. Or on a sumptuous plastic overlay if it was to come out in a digipak - FOOK ME - WHY CAN'T I DESIGN THE COVER FOR THIS COMPILATION INSTEAD?????!!!!! I'm just a poor art teacher !! :(
Stupid Peter Savile cokehead wanker!!!

I agree about the WHITE covers.They are very hard to keep MINTY MINT aswell! Also although we have the speed of the INTERNET to give us all the information about NEW releases,these days they are very difficult to actually get hold of.No record shops round here will have the new stuff without ordering.I loved just being able to walk into the NEAREST Record store on release DAY to see the new single without having a clue what it would be like.Not even sure i will get all the latest stuff until SEVERAL weeks after release.Guess i am getting a bit more JADED.I should get out MORE!:D Rocket SLIPCASED

Point #1: Saville gave us black... remember the "In Session" CD? Point #2: the sleeve collage wouldn't be very original, would it? The Mondays did it for the "Loads" comp...

So you reckon the montage wouldn't be very "original" - but then, nothing is any more from Peter Saville is it? I mean, are you implying that the current lame excuse for a "cover" "design" IS "original" then? Put it this way - ANYTHING would be better than the umpteenth boring white cover with boring centred text ..... ANYTHING! Stick on a picture of fucking Bernard Manning if you like - that would probably be a vast improvement on what we're getting......it's a piece of crap.
I like the skeleton! Bastards. (and yeah, HMV had a big poster of it when I went to go and get the WFTSC 7"s)
