Further digipak research

I've looked into front covers of digipaks for research and so I wanted to look at what's found inside a digipak and on the back before I make it so that I know exactly what I'm doing.

This picture shows what the inside of a typical digipak looks like;



As you can see it seems like the convention to have an image behind the CD's in a digipak to make the whole thing more interesting. It just adds a little more to the whole image of the digipak as it seems to me that it would be disappointing and inconsistent if there was an interesting image on the front and an interesting image on the back, then just blank sides on the inside.
I will be using this is in my own digipak.


This is the back cover of a typical digipak;



It's very common on thew back of digipaks to have a very simple image so that it doesnt over shadow the front image. Though it still needs to be a good image which keeps in tone with the rest of the image of the digipak. Additionally this research reminded me of the essential logo's at the back of the digipakto add to it authenticity.
I will take this influence and use it for my own digipak.
