Let's suppose that some up and coming musicians found out they can come to 365 to find the best album cover designers, and they want to see samples of your work. Come on, let's show them!
1. First, THE BAND or THE ARTIST: Go to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page
then 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. THE ALBUM: Go to http://www.quotationspage.com/ and choose "random quotes" from the left menu. Scroll down to the end of the page. The last 4 to 6 words of any of the three last quotes on the page is the title of your album, whichever you think would go with your band or artist.
3. Next, find or take a photo that fits the album and artist(s). '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.
4. Use your favourite editing program to create your cover. There are many free editing programs out there -- ipiccy, ribbet, affinity, gimp, befunky, etc.
Album covers are square so remember to crop it to 1:1 aspect ratio.
