This is fun!Create your own album cover from totally random elements. Follow the simple steps. 1: You need a band name. The name of your band comes from a random Wikipedia page.The band name is the title of the article.2: Your album needs a title.It comes from a random quotationYou hit the 'Generate Quotes' button and use the last 4 words of the quote. Take care to use the quote and not the name of the person who's being quoted!3: The album cover needs an image.The picture on the cover comes from hereYou use the picture no matter what it is.4. You copy & paste these three things into photo editing software or something to create the design. For this part you have to rely upon whatever talent you may or may not have. Have fun with fonts and layouts etc. What I find amazing is the number of times that the photo/picture is particularly apt for the name of the album/quotation used. Have fun & post some up if you try it.

Someone should post these in the what are you listening to now thread ( on another forum) and see if anyone comments about how much they like them.....
Just a bit mischievous nonsense....

The Paint jobby seemed to come out okay so I thought I'd have a go with PhotoBucket's image editor: Love To Change Things ~ William Jones

Chris, are there any ground rules other than the simple ones in the OP? For example, I manipulated the image in my last post, it was full colour to begin with.

The worrying thing is, all these 'albums' are believable!
