Nicked this from another Forum I frequent, bloody good laugh...
 
Create your own band/album in three easy steps�

The first article title on the page is the name of your band.

2.

The last four words of the very last quote is the title of your album.

3.
http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days
The third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

4.Use your graphics programme of choice to throw them together, and post the result.

I stopped when Wikipedia threw up , for me, wait for it "Music of Pakistan"...  
Profile pic. Should you be interested. Lakhsen, on the right, lost touch with him.
Mohammed, on the left, I'm still in touch with. He's now living in Agadez, Niger. More focused on his animals now as tourism has dried up. Is active with a co-op promoting local goods, leather work and bijouterie, into Europe.

That's a great band name.  Wonder if the likes of Architecture in Helsinki got their name.

Got on ya.

I would recommend Graphic Converter.

Just once you've clicked out of the text box, you can't do anything to it. It's pretty useless (right up there with paint).

The trial version works fine.

No problem mate. This is actually a lot of fun to do and seeing some of these album covers, they really are quite impressive and better than a lot of CD's in the shop!

Replace the t's with g's so it says img and use the URL of the image on imageshack.

Re-Size it in the program you made it in ?  Make sure it's only about 400 wide and you'll be right.

Nice one terminator. This is a cool exercise, some of the pics have really worked with the band name and title. Best entertainment I've had since the last Nix game!

I'm not so sure, it looks like one those DJ albums you'd find in the "Electronica" section which I hate. Never mind, I did my best with the resources at my disposal!
