How do you play? Here's the info:
1. Go to Wikipedia and choose the link for "Random Article" on the top left side of the page. The first random article you get is the name of your musician(s) or band. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/main_Page
2. Next go to the Quotations Page and choose "Random Quotes" from the left menu. The last 4 to 6 words of the very last quote is the title of your album. http://www.quotationspage.com
3. Next find or take a photo that fits the artist and title. Remember albums are square so crop your photo accordingly.
4. You are also allowed to use your favorite editing program if you so choose and can edit your photo as much as you want. But it must be your photo. Ace members have access to Picmonkey. Ribbet, iPiccy and BeFunky among many others have free on-line versions too. You can use any photo, old or new, but it must be processed within the time frame of the challenge.
