On the front of the Digipak, you tend to only see the band name, and title. However, on the back you have information about the label, a barcode, track names and the copyright information.
On the first inside panel I've found that it can have either the information you'd usually find in the booklet that comes with the case, or a photo of the artist, and occasionally more album artwork. Then, on the second panel, it is generally where the CD is kept. This panel can either be black behind, or have continued artwork.
Above is an example of the back cover for Fleet Foxes digipak.
To research further, I also looked at what James Yuills past album artwork, to see the type of style that may be used. After looking at this I found that his current album artwork is in a very illustrative style, something which I will try to incorporate into my digipak artwork.

Hiya Abs, After reading this post, i thought that it would be beneficial to add one or two more digipak examples to prove you claim of a wide variety of different styles!
I think you should think about the dimensions that are used and the number of panels that can be used to create larger sets.
I'm with the others - this needs far more expansion - analyse a range of digipaks in terms of form, style and content!
