I dunno, they've still used Colesy for most of the recent record-related 
releases (2003 the notably hideous exception), like the remasters and 
compilations. I've had the (albeit uninformed) impression that it's more 
just management agreeing to take them on but insisting on controlling 
the merchandising, and then saying why bother with another person. 
Management probably tells itself: we can sell piss-rag-quality shirts 
for 25 quid at a gig, why bother with quality shirts for 15 or so quid 
that involve an actually talented professional designer who just so 
happened to have designed 99% of the decent stuff associated with the 
band and its image over the past 25-odd years? Now I'm getting pissed 
off just thinking about it...Christ the new album better be a Colesy 
cover...otherwise might as well make it their "black" album.
