This is my new album cover! Well, actually it’s a cool thing I saw on a blog while stumble-ing today. It involves visiting sites and using what you get in Photoshop or similar paint program. The game goes like this…
(you may want to middle click these to open them in new tabs)
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
The first article title on this page will be the name of your band. - http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
The last four words of the last quote on the page will be the name of your album - http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days/
The third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover. - http://www.livejournal.com/random.bml
Click on the users info link and look for the italic subtitle below the bold blog name. That will be your first hit single. - Use a graphics program to put them all together like I did above and share it here..
For completeness, here are all the urls that came up for me..

Lets see what you get….
Here’s a couple more that I made (no refreshes allowed, you have to choose whatever comes up (even russian tag lines!) )

My first thought when I first viewed this post was “Wow, Andy is designing album covers! What a talented guy.”
Then, I realized you wuz just having fun.
witchypoo’s last blog post..You Have to Hear This!
hehe, it’s a really fun thing to do and quite strange how things go together and actually sound like a proper band and album.
That is randomly brilliant…by happenstance…because the title and the picture go together!
(Since the album name is “Exist side by side” and the picture is of two legs…). How many did you make to get one or two that worked great like that?
Adam Thompson’s last blog post..Blog Contest – $25 Cash Prize
it was serendipity! I didn’t have to do any refreshes to get it like that.
even the one below it with a picture of the baby and the title “bedside of a dying child” came without a refresh. how spooky!
hey, you seem to be very talented, right? *g*
I’m a singer and have a small band. we’re making big band-styled music and are quiet succesfull in our region. maybe you can help us with our covers… they are rather boring…
theknife: let me know the name of the band and your album name and I’ll whip one up for you!
My favorite is the first cover
This is clever… Might have a go at this later !
Scott’s last blog post..Best Live Keynote Coverage
the first cover is so sexy.
sissi: it was the first one I did thanks!
Scott: let me know how it turns out..
blue: I seem to be getting a lot of german commenters who leave non blog url’s as their site, is my blog advertised as an easy place to get linkbacks somewhere?
