| Melf | posted 1-Jun-2008 5:40pm The band is called Norvel Lee and the album is A Whole Lot Better.
That has to be a Scottish acoustic rock group. |
| Frostbrand | posted 1-Jun-2008 6:23pm I actually found this meme last week. It's pretty addictive actually.
KPKY to your regular duties Album Cover: http://www.geocities.com/arklemknzy/kpky4.JPG I liked it so much, I slipped a reference to this non-existant band into my novel. Then, I though about how some writers have a little "thing" they work into each story; Kevin Smith has the number 37, John Landis has "See You Next Wednsday." So now the totally fake band KPKY is my "thing." I even made a fake discography for them. http://www.geocities.com/arklemknzy/kpkydisc.htm |

That was fun. |
| LindaH | (reply to Frostbrand) posted 2-Jun-2008 12:34am When I first started writing songs, I would make lists of them in groups of about 10 to 12, because I wanted to imagine what they might look like on an album. Your link reminded me of that. |

"To Build an Audience" by Gruaro ![]() |
| Enheduanna | posted 2-Jun-2008 11:45am Font, Switzerland (bad)
And You're Halfway There (not too bad, but better without the and) The third picture down is Spiderman, which I don't think Marvel would let me use. The third picture across, though, is a hippo's head sticking out of the water, with it's mouth open. Kinda funny. |
| Enheduanna | posted 2-Jun-2008 11:48am Some of these are really good. I don't think mine was all that good, though. |

| icurok | (reply to Biggles) posted 3-Jun-2008 4:27am I think Flickr has got an inbuilt feature which prevents you from right-clicking on the image in order to copy the link location.
If you want to post the image here, first click on the photo (so you go to its own page), then view the html source, then look for the word "farm" until you get to a line in the source beginning with "<img src". |

| icurok | (reply to Melf) posted 3-Jun-2008 6:00am I was thinking a cross between Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds and Black Sabbath personally.
I have to say I usually hate all those "What's your pornstar/pimp/pirate/viking name?" games, but I think this is one of the best surveys in ages. It's such a relief from the dross we've had the last two weeks. When I saw this in qual, I couldn't wait for it to pass. |
| icurok | (reply to Frostbrand) posted 3-Jun-2008 6:16am Wish I could, but I don't have a home computer. I'm typing this on my work laptop and I'm not allowed to install Photoshop. The best I could manage is Microsoft Paint! |
| icurok | (reply to Frostbrand) posted 3-Jun-2008 6:29am OK, this is the best I can do at short notice (and without the aid of Photoshop).

| Irene007 | posted 3-Jun-2008 10:17am BAND
Saint-Germain-lès-Arpajon - A band by the name of St-Germain already exists (love their music too) Might cause confusion. American Freedom Agenda - Nope... Photograph - Sucks. Hovgården - Sucks even more! Occupations of Latvia - Randall Dodd - Oh! Come ON! *moan* Coledale Beck - Ok, I ain't got all day and I like Beck, so... ALBUM Corrupt Laws Are Broken - First hit! It works for me... From Benjamin Disaraeli "When men are pure, laws are useless; when men are corrupt, laws are broken." I dropped the comma.
This was fun but as you can see - I cheated on the name of the band. It's too important an element to be left random.... |
| icurok | (reply to Irene007) posted 3-Jun-2008 10:36am It looks like you tried to do what I did when I first tried to link to the album cover.
If you right-click on photos in Flickr you get this "http://l.yimg.com/www.flickr.com/images/spaceball...." instead. Look at my reply to Biggles |
| Irene007 | (reply to icurok) posted 3-Jun-2008 12:21pm Oh well, it was just a girl anyway... Thanks icurok! |
| Irene007 | posted 3-Jun-2008 12:22pm I guess Iseult and I have the same album cover! |
| LindaH | (reply to Irene007) posted 3-Jun-2008 12:34pm I like your quote for its own sake, especially the first part! |
| Frostbrand | (reply to icurok) posted 3-Jun-2008 12:56pm Fair enough. That was what I used to make mine. |
| Frostbrand | (reply to icurok) posted 3-Jun-2008 12:56pm > OK, this is the best I can do at short notice

That's actually pretty cool. |
| icurok | (reply to Frostbrand) posted 3-Jun-2008 1:00pm I went back and edited my first album cover too |

| Irene007 | (reply to LindaH) posted 4-Jun-2008 2:07am I suspect that you're like me... You have seen some things on the net that were a kind of revelation or a confirmation of what you believe to be true. I don't mean that the info found is what shapes you but rather confirms what you have suspected all along. I'm I right? |

| LindaH | (reply to Irene007) posted 4-Jun-2008 12:00pm Yep. Usually I see those things as a way to explain it better. |

{'A river over the sky'} {clouds looking like rings of milk} Huh, this system isn't bad at all. Previously I was 'Kristal McKinstry and The Springs' Album: 'Lonely Monster' Cover: A kaleidoscopic color gradient retouched b/w pen drawing of a one-eyed (his whole head) monster with several eyeball hands, several legs, and an alligator like snout I drew when I was 11. The sererdipity comes off as much holier. |
