the giant line at the top of the sleeve.However I think its a bit boring and could do with more lines bending to create a more exciting cover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Second Sleeve

create more spirals.I also changed the colour just to see if it would look better than red.I think the adding more waves added a lot to the sleeve but I think the colour could be better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\"

font in the bottom corner where the title will be.I think I would keep the colour as its the best option with the waves but I would definitely the font used for the title as it is a bit difficult to
