    Create your own band name and album cover....

    It's good fun this... just follow these instructions...

    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 Quotations Page and select "random quotations"
    or click http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
    The last four or five words of the very last quote on 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.

    Save it as a jpg or gif, and just attach the image. I couldn't do the full preview though for some reason...

    Rather comically, the first random article I got was an album.

    use tinypic.com and upload your picture. Under the 'links to share' option, you'll see IMG Code for Forums & Message Boards, copy the code underneath it and it'll pop up as a preview here.

    Feck it. My photobucket is crap.
    I think I should the parachute, because I'm great.

    In fact, I think I should get both parachutes, in case one doesn't work.

    That is brilliant!

    Also, this is genuinely what the band name came up as. Appropriate, I know.

    I'm still botching up posting the image but my bands name was "Dr Quinn - Medicine Woman" - "What Life is About" - available now at all good records stores (and a few dodgy ones).
    Quoting years at random since 1975
