Very funny...but a very attractive concept, good layout. Would have like a little more clarity in the right male's hand to see the change better, but hey, It is still a creative comp. Bumping you to 7

lol..Love it! Very funny, especially the elepahnt piggy bank. I like the lettering and the way you've isolated just the hands/arms and the piggy bank. Definitely looks like an album cover. The only criticism I have is that it appears to have lost too much detail in the skin from too much noise reduction? Good job, nontheless.

Excellent! a 10 (even though I should have deducted a point for using the elephant instead of the donkey) ;)

Redundant statement? Nice idea - good placement. Bottom text is a bit strong for me.

Interesting photo, better than most of the fabricated DPC names I have seen here. So many Purple, club, crew so on, not very original for most of them. I gave you the only 9 I could give out, trying to balance the score 50/50 for creativity and originality. Yours was the highest I rated any of them.

Wow. Strong message here. Sadly all too accurate these days.
My compliments on your originality and the way you've made your statement.
Good job.

Ooooooooooooo, I love it, LOL!

Good idea, good execution of the idea and the font and lettering is also well done.

The picture is lacking a real wow or pop factor though. It seems a bit bland. And the smalle hand almost looks like a child's hand, which bothers me for some odd reason, not a lot, but just a little. Not enough to effect your score, but it's there.

As is a 7

Good imagination and humor. Can't quite see it as an album cover though.

Very witty setup. I think the photo is a bit too dark making the text stick out too much. If you wanted to keep the darkness, I think raising the contrast, sharpness, and adding some gritty noise might help the subjects stand apart from the background more.
