I've read the comments under my Balatro 5/4 and decided to re-upload the video with another cover art. The previous one was created by using an A.I. and after someone asked me about it, I added a paragraph stating that fact to the video's description. Afterwards many people commented that even though you liked the music, they had problems with the image and to be honest I get why they feel this way. I'm deeply sorry.
I'm not really good at creating visual art. I can't really draw and graphic design is sadly not my passion. :( I consider myself first and foremost a musician and the song's cover art (and also kinda the whole video) was an afterthought.
I spent too much time just trying to come up with anything I could to create something I was happy with and I just didn't really get anywhere. I was frustrated with myself and my work so far and basically just gave up and chose the easy way out by using an A.I. to give me "a colourful cubistic painting of playing cards" from where I chose one image, picked only a small section of the image and cut it onto the cover.
Looking back I now realise just how lazy that was and I apologize for doing that and not even mentioning that fact anywhere before someone in the comments asked me about it. So I just spent two more hours in InkScape (which I already use) and created something new. (If you look closely you might start to notice a certain Boss Blind Icon) Since then I re-uploaded the video and removed every trace of the old cover.
To show what I had put together before, here are some ideas that I had and what results (and abominations) came from that. The image in the bottom left corner is a picture of a pencil drawing I did to use as a rough sketch and base.
