Sorry for the delay in hosting this next challenge, I seem to have lost track of time!! I hope you're ready for the next album cover challenge though. It's great fun - even just reading random quotes is fun before you start editing your cover. Also, if you're struggling for inspiration it might get you going again! So here's how it works:
1. Go to wikipedia and hit 'random article' on the left. The first random wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.
2. Go to quotationspage.com and hit 'random quotes' on the left. Scroll down. The last 4-6 words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your album.
3. Now go take a photo that fits with your album!
4. Use your favourite editing program to create your cover.
5. Share your image (or images, you can do as many as you like) with us by tagging it with 'albumcoverchallenge6' !
This challenge will run until midnight June 29th GMT when I will choose my favourite selection for votes. There is no limit to the number of entries you can make, just make sure to tag them as instructed above.
To share an entry in the thread, go to your uploaded image and find the area under your photo data that says "Share". Copy the code from the box and paste it in the discussion thread here.
**UPDATED 24/06 You can use a previously shot image or one you shoot just for this competition, but you MUST use your OWN images!! **sorry didn't copy all the rules from the last challenge properly!!
Happy shooting, look forward to more creative entries by you all
... is what I thought. No idea what I'm going to do with this, though:
Band - Oluremi Tinubu*
Title - "The highest result of education is tolerance". (Helen Keller)
* Oluremi Tinubu (born 21 September 1960) is the former first Lady and current a Senator of Lagos State. She is a member of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) party.
Not a bad random choice:
Charlemagne Tower
'prepare for it today'. from Malcolm X - The future belongs to those who prepare for it today.
Hmmm, thinking...
Title - All day for your return (We could have bought a small yacht with what we spent on our dog an dall the things he destroyed. Then again, how many yachts wait by the door all day for your return? - Marley and Me)
Well...can I enter pretty please? I made mine when Challenge 5 was being voted on...I saw camera settings 6 and thought it was CD cover. I'd love to be able to enter it. I worked so hard on it in GIMP. up to you to decide of course! Thanks!
@sparkle Hey Juliette! I see this time, the rules say "and go take a picture" to go with your words. Last time, it did not, it said you could use an older pic but just edit it. Since those are the rules, never mind about me entering my CD cover up there that I made about two weeks ago....I will try this again! Going to get my words now....
@espyetta hi MaryBeth...I realised I hadn't copied the whole of the rules down - you can enter a previous shot - and I have amended the rules accordingly! Thanks for spotting this! your first entry will count :o)
Oh yay! Thanks. And I am going to work on that other one too....it is going to give me a little "craft" project to do to be able to do it. Fun! Thanks, Juliette! @sparkle
I had a lot of fun with this, so I thought I would try for another today. I swear the following are the first random results:
Band: Captain Underpants and the Invasion of the Incredibly Naughty Cafeteria Ladies from Outer Space (and the Subsequent Assault of the Equally Evil Lunchroom Zombie Nerds)
@alpeedee Hey you've done a smashing job with that good old Captain Underpants band ;-) I just thought I'd tell you I'm more familiar than I'd care to be with those Lunchroom Zombie Nerds!
@sparkle Hey Judith! Talk about time slipping up on someone. It has me...Just been busy. I am working on a CD cover, but learning GIMP tricks and I will not be ready with this one for this challenge...I am going to take my niece and nephew to Savannah for the weekend and packing tonight... I am just going to enter mY thomas Radcliff one and then I will enter the Stay up and Fight that I got this time in the challenge 7. MAYBE I willl have figured out in GIMP how to do all that I want to do by that time. Thanks for running this challenge!
Tweets ahoy!

This quote sucks!
Great. That is SO not my genre... lol
Wiki gave me: Graz VL-1 Maulwurf I

and quotes page gave me:

Too bad it didn't say "flight" or "fly"
Haha! This is going to be interesting!
Album - ...where your thoughts take you.
