My New Band

Okay, so just for fun, I found this little game on a relative's blog, and thought it would kill a few minutes, so off I went.  I don't have photoshop on this computer, so I did what I could with Microsoft Paint (which is not very much).  Also, I didn't use the first Wikipedia article, because it made no sense whatsoever, and the second one just happened to already be a band.  That's fine, though, because I never follow the arbitrary rules in these memes anyway.

CREATE YOUR OWN BAND AND DEBUT ALBUM!


To Do This

1 - Go to “wikipedia.” Hit “random”

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

The first random wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.


2 - Go to “Random quotations”

or click 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.


3 - Go to flickr and click on “explore the last seven days”

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

Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.


4 - Use photoshop or similar to put it all together. (I don't have photoshop and didn’t spend a ton of time on mine)

And here is the result:

Check out mine, I liked it so much I put it on my sidebar. I followed the rules. The quote is oh so appropriate for an ER nurse.

Wow that one is perfect!

You don't have photoshop elements?? It's $100 that you'll wish you had spent years ago.

Sent you an email.

Because of this, you earn a spot in my blogroll. OK, maybe that's not quite a big honor.

Fun post. I should try it.

Not a big honor? Are you kidding? I'm organizing a parade as we speak.

I didn't even need Photoshop. I used IfranView and superimposed the text on top.

No fuss, no muss.
