Wow, I am excited to have won the Album Cover Challenge #47. Thank you to all who voted and participated. It is my honor to host Album Cover Challenge 48.
Here's how the album cover challenge works:
1. Go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia and choose the link for "random article" on the top left side of the page. The first random Wikipedia article you get is the name of your musician(s) or band.
2. Go to http://www.quotationspage.com and choose "random quotes" from the left menus. Scroll down to the end of the page. The last 4 to 6 words of the very last quote on the page are the title of your album.
3. Next, find or take a photo of yours that fits the album name and artist(s). Album covers are usually square.
4. Then, use your favorite editing program to create your cover (or, if you don't have one, Ace members have free access to picmonkey.com -- and there are many other free programs out there). You can use any image of yours for the album, old or new, but you must use your own images and do all processing for the cover during the time frame of the challenge.
5. Tag your entries “albumcoverchallenge48”.
In addition to tagging your image, please post your album to this thread, too. It helps keep this thread alive. That means it will show up on the discussion lists to the right of the home page. It also helps bring in more participants!
To post a photo on this thread:
1) Go to your page that has the photo you would like to post.
2) Click on the three dots just below the bottom right of your picture. Find the 'Embed Code' box and right click on it to copy it, then paste it to this thread.
Challenge 48 begins Tuesday June 23 and ends on Monday June 30 at midnight EST. All entries must be between those dates. If you have any questions or need help getting started, just post to this thread.
Looking forward to seeing all your entries! You can enter multiple times.
