This is kinda fun. On another site that we will not mention (rhymes with macebook), I stumbled across a picture by

bobaloo that he referred to as Pen and Pixel. It was a total blast from the past.

Here's an example of P & P.

The formula is diamond-studded wording, lots of really bad photoshop, a solid color border, and most importantly the background should have fancy cars or mansions or stacks of money.

I make a mix tape every year called Good Times, and I try to do something unique each year for the cover. Back in 2000, I did my own Pen and Pixel.

Ha ha. I'm still proud of it. :)

Here's this year's.

I'm still kind of new to this whole LiveJournal thing, but I think I'm in to this meme stuff.
Where do these memes come from? Who's allowed to make them up? I've got some pretty rad ones I'd love to drop. Someday...

bearpawly just did a CD jacket meme that totally inspired me. I used to be a hardcore Photoshop head. I would make CD covers daily. Once I got my first iPod, that slowed me down quite a bit.

I don't know if these are the definitive rules, or if this is a real meme for everyone, but here are the rules, per

bearpawly's blog:

A.) Pretend I could sing and that I was releasing my debut CD
B.) Create a CD Jacket for said fictional album
C.) Use pics from my LJ for imagery -- and journal entry titles as song titles

Done.
