The varying bonus tracks include "Death from Above" (red/orange/silver; first released on the UK "Tarantula" single), "Zeitgeist" (purple; from the Dutch/German "Tarantula" single), "Stellar" (blue/silver), and "Ma Belle" (silver). The green version (from the UK retailer HMV) is identical to the standard red edition.
The cover art was by Obey Giant graphic designer and illustrator Shepard Fairey. It depicts a drowning Statue of Liberty, positioned in front of the sun, meant to portray global warming and the eminent demise of many founding United States ideals. Corgan commented, "Like a great artist can do, Shepard had summed up very simply a lot of complex themes. He also used the type font from our very first single [Tristessa], and I asked him about it and he had no idea. He was just on point."
Prior to the album's release on May 6, four photographs of the album booklet artwork were leaked on Netphoria, a Smashing Pumpkins fan message board. The band management soon released a statement to the media stating the photos are "stolen goods" that should not be posted on the internet. Later in the week, two alleged thieves were identified. Chicago Police announced that 39 photographs and three guitar picks were stolen, although only four to six of those photographs were leaked online. The two were held on $100,000 bond. They were arrested and charged with felony burglary after other tenants of the building provided a description that led police to the suspects.
