album cover meme

[xparrot]

Meme snagged from runpunkrun! Quick quiz: X-parrot a) is avoiding writing I should be doing b) is avoiding going to bed, which I really should be doing c) likes messing with photoshop d) all of the above.

1. Go to Wikipedia and hit random. The first article you get is the name of your band.

2. Go to quotationspage.com and hit random. The last four or five words of the very last quote on the page is the title of your first album.

3. Go to flickr and click on explore the last seven days. Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

4. Use PhotoShop or similar to put it all together. Post it with this text in the caption.

My band Durio Dulcis is named after the durian tree, so it's only appropriate that my photo is from Bangladesh; the quote's apparently from Margaret Cho's weblog.

ETA: And when Durio Dulcis inevitably breaks up, I start a punk rock group called DC Heroes, and our first album is the mega-hit "A Thing Worth Cheating For"!

Oh, hey, that's a really interesting looking cover! And the random Wiki thing even sounds like a band, and the title is kind of interesting! Nice~! :D

I know, didn't the band and title name work out rather well? I think I'll adopt them as a fictional band, next time I'm in need of one... ^^

Hee! I did this meme once and then ended up not being able to stop ... I made about a dozen album covers. It was just too much fun.

ETA: I like the fonts and all that you chose for the album cover; it looks very album-y!

They keep just working out surprisingly well! Now I want to make Durio Dulcis a band in one of my stories XD

[runpunkrun]

Oooh, that looks great.

I have way too much fun font-picking in photoshop ^^

It's much fun, you should try one! (or two or three, until you get a good one... ^^)
