cd cover game v. 3.0 or something

[alasdairm]

the rules are easy - you take two random phrases and a random picture
and create your own cd cover. the spin is that you don't get to
choose.

1. band name

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random

the title of the article is your band name

2. cd name

http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3

the last four words of the last quotation is the name of your cd

3. cd cover art

http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days/

the 3rd picture - no matter what it is - is your cover art. you may
manipulate this image within reason.

save it at 500px * 500px.

here is my first:

Oh yeah. I forgot about this game. Sometimes I cheated in the past, but it will be nothing but genuine from here on out.

Cool thread! I had a go too

 

[One Thousand Words]

Obviously an all female death metal band

 

[thujone]

Size restriction is a harsh thing to demand, but I'll keep it at 500x500 from here on out.

 

[One Thousand Words]

Rules get in the way of a good product. And correct grammar.

 

[His Name Is Frank]

^Ah. Five words from one thousand words! You're out of here!

no worries. cd case art is square, hence my specification. post what you like - i just think it's better if they're square...

All of my bands released their stuff on Laserdisc. They never quite hit the limelight.

Mine are self pressed vinyls wrapped in Xmas paper

^I would be interested to hear what The Case of the Stick sounds like, simply based on the album cover. Also, I'm glad that was a misread on my part. I could have sworn the name of their album was "Sometimes likes little children" The first music band who's target audience would be pedos, I guess.

This one turned out to be 50 shades of shit. The initial picture was nice and even fitting for the title. But good old 500x500 had to step in and mess it all up. True to my word, I did not cheat and grab another picture. Although next time, I might. Maybe.

^ what did the initial picture look like? you are allowed to "manipulate the image within reason".
