Funny story—I used a photo of a dead cockroach for my Junior Portfolio Review poster back in my school days. Seems these bug critters are still haunting me.

It’s a game and this is the first post. It will tell you how to play and where to get the images and information to use

@Steve_O

Wanna play a game? Sure you do. It’s a fun, creative diversion for you. The objective is to create a CD cover using a random band name, a random album name, and a random photo. Here are the rules.

1. Use this link to generate a random Wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random . The name of the article is the band name.
2. Use this link to pull up a page with random quotes: http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php . The last 4 or 5 words from the last quote on the page is the album name.
3. Use this link to pull up a page of Creative Commons images from Flickr: https://www.flickriver.com/groups/creative_commons-_free_pictures/pool/random/ . The third image is your CD cover image.
4. Sometimes you get a dynamite combination. Sometimes you don’t. No cherry picking. That’s the rules.
5. Spend no more than 10 minutes to work up your CD cover.
6. Save the cover as a 10 in x 10 in JPEG at 72 ppi and post your results here.
7. Have fun!

The random image generator is not working.

I just clicked on it, it seems to be working.

Weird. It must be a regional or ISP issue. I’ll try again tomorrow. I’ll have to find some other way to procrastinate this morning.
