Maybe the weirdest, coolest, most fun meme I've ever seen

Okay, so this one's weird, but I absolutely love it. I saw it over at Chez Elisson and just had to give it a go. You should try it, too.




Create Your Own Album Cover!

It’s simple, especially if you have PhotoShop or some other image-editing software. I always use GIMP, which is a freebie download that does a pretty fair job of much of what Photoshop can do for waaaaaay cheaper. Any-hoo... Here’s all you do:

1. Go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random. The title of the article is the name of your band.

2. go to http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3. The last few words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your album.

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

4. Use PhotoShop (or GIMP or any similar image-tinkering app) to put it all together.

5. Post the result on your blog.

Clever, no?
When I tried it again, this is what came up:











This could be SOOOO addicting.
