making album covers
I stole this idea from a forum I visit. They stole it from another forum. The internet is made of stealing.
1. Click http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
The first article title on the page is the name of your band. You can remove bits in brackets - eg. "(Seinfeld epsode)" - if you like, or you can leave them in.
2. Click http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
The last four words of the very last quotation is the title of your album. You can use the last three or five words if it sounds better.
3. Click http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days/
The third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover. If it won't let you save the pic (if this is the case, it will call the file "spaceball.gif"), press shift and print screen to take a screenshot, then paste it into the program.
4.Use your graphics program of choice to throw them together.
Here's what my first result looked like:
I was going to post just the album cover and talk about how much I liked the band and see if I could get anybody else to be like, "Oh, me too!" but I decided none of you are that desperate to be liked. If you were, why would you dress the way you do, right?

I wonder if there's a market for fake album covers. I want to do this for a living.
Next time your over, I'll have to show you all the fake album covers I've made over the years...I bet I have at least 50 of them.
Oh, the free time I had before two kids.....
OH EM GEE...mine rocks! The first two fit pretty well, and the picture is...well...you'll see.

Beautiful, by the way.
Thanks for the heads up on that one.
