Vinylalbumcovers.com - Carpenters' Section (2014 Remix)

Okay, this was actually done for a reason. The version that was up previously didn't play nice with phones and tablets. This one will. It has a different look so here it is. This is just the beginning as the separate album pages must also be remixed. They had too much synthesizer and not enough kick drum...

Update: Here it is now with all the albums. Kept it small as not to hog server space here...

Update: I fixed the "Horizon" label as I'd forgotten A&M had gone to the faded label by then.

So I decided to shun the original design seen above entirely and start fresh. Here's the page for "Offering." What do you think?

That's good. IIRC, in the original "mix", you had a faded version of the album cover as the background for each album, but this looks a bit more "professional."

Very nice!

The problem is that I'm now working with a responsive layout and it's difficult to make that work here. I'm also doing this all in Wordpress so it comes down to finding a plug-in that'll work with the theme I picked out. I'm still tweaking so maybe I'll be able to make that work again.

Very nice!

Thank you! This is a whole new way of working for me so I'm learning as I go.

Because the theme I'd been using was particularly unfriendly when it came to adding plugins, I've gone in a different direction. Have a look!

We've got our album backgrounds back the way we all liked them and the style is essentially finished. I'm adding album art and data as we speak. Just a few to go before the "Carpenters" section of the new site is complete. Stay tuned!

The website is officially up and running! The only section with anything in it so far is the Carpenters section. I'll get to the rest of it - I promise. In the meantime, go enjoy Carpenters album covers!

There was a minor difficulty with the "If I Were A Carpenter" as it appeared on the albums page. It has been fixed.

At long last, "Singles 1974-1978" has been added. This one has added sleeves that we didn't have when it first went up. Go to the page and you'll find out what happened:
