Design your album cover before you record your music

CB

Try this:

instructions:
1 - Go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
The first random Wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.

2 - Go to Random quotations: http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
The last four words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your album.

3 - Go to flickr's "explore the last seven days" http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days/
Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

Use these random elements only to make the album cover.

Here's mine:

That pic is awesome.

What program are you using to create your covers? MS Paint?

airbornflght

Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended

You can do most of what I did in paint though, photoshop just makes it easier/quicker. The hardest thing to do in paint would be the faded line.

I like the covers, they are very smart looking.. You never know, they all look like real album covers!

I may be an idiot...but how are you getting the picture? I can't copy/cut/paste/download anything.

I view the source of the page and jack the image. You can also printscreen and crop it out.
