Editing Running with Scissors (album) (section)

==Artwork and packaging==
For nearly 20 years, Yankovic had been known for his hairdo, glasses, and moustache. However, in early 1998, Yankovic grew out his hair, shaved his moustache and underwent [[LASIK]] eye surgery to correct his vision, thus making glasses no longer necessary. As such, ''Running with Scissors'' was his first album to feature his new look.<ref>{{cite news |last=Anderson |first=Jamie |title=Yankovic Has A New Look But He's Still Weird Al |url=https://www.orlandosentinel.com/1999/11/12/yankovic-has-a-new-look-but-hes-still-weird-al/ |newspaper=[[Orlando Sentinel]] |publisher=[[Tribune Company]] |access-date=May 8, 2013 |date=November 12, 1999}}</ref> On the cover, he is shown running on the track at [[Santa Monica City College]], holding a pair of scissors in each hand—a literal depiction of the album's title. The CD booklet contains the complete lyrics to all but one of the album's songs; due to the [[Shaggy dog story|length]] of the closing song "Albuquerque", not all of its lyrics fit on the final page of the booklet. Instead of continuing with the "Albuquerque" lyrics, the end of the booklet breaks off mid-sentence and concludes with an apology from Yankovic, in which he states that there was no way he could have fit the rest of the song's lyrics on the existing booklet and that he "should have used a smaller font or a bigger piece of paper or something".<ref name="rwsliner"/> Yankovic later released the complete lyrics on the "Ask Al" feature on his website,<ref>{{cite web |url=http://weirdal.com/archives/miscellaneous/ask-al/#0400 |title='Ask Al' Q&As for April, 2000 |access-date=June 27, 2010 |last=Yankovic |first=Alfred M. |author-link="Weird Al" Yankovic |date=April 1999 |work=The Official "Weird Al" Yankovic Web Site}}</ref> and had them printed in ''Weird Al: The Book'' (2012).<ref>{{cite book |title=Weird Al: The Book |last1=Rabin |first1=Nathan |last2=Yankovic |first2=Al |date=October 2012 |author-link1=Nathan Rabin |author-link2="Weird Al" Yankovic |publisher=[[Abrams Books]] |location=[[New York City]] |pages=166–167 |isbn=978-1419704352}}</ref>

''Running with Scissors'' is also the first of "Weird Al" Yankovic's albums to feature multimedia content. After placing the CD in a CD-ROM drive, one can browse through the files and play a [[QuickTime]] movie file containing fourteen minutes of footage from the [[Disney Channel]] concert special ''"Weird Al" Yankovic: (There's No) Going Home''.<ref>{{cite AV media |people=[["Weird Al" Yankovic]] |title=Running with Scissors |medium=[[Enhanced CD]] |publisher=[[Volcano Entertainment]] |year=1999 |location=[[Los Angeles, California]] |id=61422 32118-2}}</ref>
