Well, Thanks to everyone who participated because I’m glad to see this challenge still running after years out of the 365project, Many Thanks of course to Nick @nickspicsnz for hosting the last challenge…and thanks to everyone who voted for my picture.
That means it’s time to start the show for the 133rd time! So here it is:
Album Cover Challenge 133.
I bet You know the drill better then me, but The rules for how to do the challenge are below:
1. Go to the Wikipedia website’s main page. The title of the “Featured Article” for the day is the name of your artist: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page
2. For your album title, 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 (photos) of yours that fits the album name and artist(s). The cover can be made up of one single shot or an edit with multiple layers, and so on. The processing options are limitless, but don’t forget to crop your album cover into a square format though!
4. You can use your favourite editing programme to create your cover. You can use any image of yours for the album, old or new, but you must use your own images and do all your processing for the cover during the timeframe of the challenge.
5. If editing with software isn’t your thing you could create something manually – e.g. a collage or montage including text cut from a newspaper or magazine – and take a photo of that. Just remember the square crop.
6. You can enter multiple times but only one album cover will be chosen per photographer.
In addition to tagging your image, you can post your album to this thread, too. It’s always fun to see what others are coming up with!
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 arrow below your picture.
3) Find the 'Embed Code' box and right click on it to copy it, then paste it to this thread.
Timeframe
Album Cover Challenge 133 begins Today 8th February 2022 and ends at midnight (any time zone) Friday 18th March 2022. Finalists will be chosen thereafter and voting will be posted then, with the winner being announced after the vote is completed.
As in the last round, it’s been suggested that, if the first selection of artist title and album title are too out there for you to work with, try one more time for another combination.
This challenge is fun but really „challenging“ with combination of given square format, unpredictible name and topic and of course processing/editing requirements. I hope You will find it as fun and attractive as I do, and we'll get some interesting and original participation. I look forward to see as many results of your creativity as possible

PS: …and of course, please excuse my crooked English as I'm not a native speaker and my language skills got bit rusty over last two years of locked down life in the heart of Europe.
