cover art game

I got this one over at Wendyburd's site, Pessimistically Optimistic Meanderings....by Wendy .

If you'd like to play along this is what you do:



01) Go to "Wikipedia" and hit "Random" or click this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random . The first random wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.



02) Go to "Random quotations" or click this link: http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3. The last four or five words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album.



03) Go to Flickr and click on "explore the last seven days" or click this link: http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days The third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.



04) Open the picture in your paint program or whatever photo altering program you have that allows you to font your picture (I used Paint Shop Pro7) and put it all together. Here's mine:





An album cover for the group Mbaba Mwana Waresa titled Less Than You Settled For
The group name means:

Mbaba Mwana Waresa is a beloved goddess of the Zulu people of Southern Africa, primarily because she gave them the gift of beer. She is the goddess of the rainbow, rain, harvest, and agriculture.


meaning behind the name found here: http://www.pantheon.org/articles/m/mbaba_mwana_waresa.html

That album title looks appropriate too...too appropriate.

This one was fun Wendy, thanks!

Thanks! Took forever to get the fonting to look right. The font that I ~really~ wanted didnt look so hot and was rather illegible in places. Ah well.

I'll have to try to remember to come back and do this when my back isn't killing me.
