Forums: Thunder Dome:

Something I found on the web, which I thought might provide a little fun:

Go to Wikipedia's random article page
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random

The first article you get is the name of your band.


2 - Go to the Random Quotations page
quotationspage.com/random.php3

The last four words of the last quote is the album title.

3 - Go to Flickr's Interesting photo page
flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days/

Third picture, no matter what it is, is your album cover.

Put it all together to make your album. Either crop it to CD cover size, or just use the raw image itself... the only rule is you're only allowed to add the album title and artist title.

Had to add a noise filter overlay as the original image was considerably smaller than 600 px...

other than that, followed the rules to a T.

Great idea, like the PS version of "your pornstar name"

definately fun way to kill a bit of office time

uno mas:

ok - maybe a stoopid question but how do you download pictures from flickr?

when u click on the picture, there should be a little magnifying glass icon that says all sizes ... right above picture... when i clicked on that it gave me the option to download original size

not a flickr user really so don't know if that will work for all pics?

maybe there are different settings that people can set on flickr as I don't have the magnifying glass icon

not everyone uploads large images as there is an issue lately with people snagging pix and selling them on stock sites, hoping the author will never get wise to the ripoff.
I'm not that paranoid but even so I tend not to upload the absolute fullsize any more.

Cool albums, peeps.

meh

How fun!

addictive. more and more.





Some great covers here, no wonder studios pay hardly anything for cover designs.
I just realized I fucked up that last one. Oops. I suck.

Oh help I can't stop

I don't peek into the Thunder Dome that often but damn, this is an awesome thread

You're all about the beret/long, frizzy, pube-like hair/ outsized jazz beard/ meerschaum pipe/ shitty sweater look, I know.

I'm going to make that man fall in love with me.

If any man could tame that wild and noble stallion it would be you. You will break many hearts.

I could just die in his sweater, nestled in his wiry locks.

His jazz beard is like a rainbow bridge to a land of untold beaty and wonder, shrouded in the mystical fog of his pipe smoke. I bet it smells like cherries.
