This is really easy.


INSTRUCTIONS:

1. 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 episode)" - if you like, or
you can leave them in.

2. 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. 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 graphics program of your choice.


Here's my first effort:

I wasnt sure how much editing was allowed... so I pushed my luck.

I inverted the colors, and added the copy boxes on the right for the text.

That was fun so I did it again. I hope we're allowed to do two.

If it weren't for my lawyer, I'd still be in prison. It went a lot faster with two people digging. -Joe Martin

The only modifications I did to original photo in both of my submission was crop it into the shape of a CD cover and resize a little. I don't really care much for either original quotation but I really like album titles I derived from the quotes. I also really like the band names.

This challenge or whatever is turning out real well and is real simple.

It's not really a challenge as there's no real artistic talent required. Apart from picking the font there's not that much creative input at all.

Just fun, and a good game.

Bring 'em on.

If that doesn't scream Norwegian Black Metal, I don't know what does.

Here we go, hope I haven't distorted the text too much.

I sorta cheated a little because some of the pictures didnt make sense and some of the wiki things were common things. I think the first one i got was jerry seinfeld
