Another thing I learned from this thread... MSPaint is truly the most fucking heinous program ever invented.

― donut bitch (donut), Thursday, 1 April 2004 23:25 (twenty-one years ago)

Did we ever find the answers to these?

DB so OTM. You can't do a simple crop with that stupid thing.

Actually I just got DB's yellowjacket nightmare - it's Chris Knox, right?

also nobody got my super easy one from the now-locked thread.

http://users.rcn.com/rschrade/dudes.jpg

― Broheems (diamond), Thursday, 1 April 2004 23:28 (twenty-one years ago)

DB's last is something by KMFDM

we got Billion Dollar Babies.

is the 4th Buffalo Tom?

Which makes me even more in awe of webcrack's Loveless at the start of thread one!

― OleM (OleM), Thursday, 1 April 2004 23:33 (twenty-one years ago)

Broheems.. yes, you got the artist on the yellow jacket nightmare. but the album? (ok, it's Seizure)

― donut bitch (donut), Thursday, 1 April 2004 23:33 (twenty-one years ago)

DB so OTM. You can't do a simple crop with that stupid thing.
On the version I'm working with, you just drag the corners of the canvas, but I am using it on XP, and there have been some changes.

The third one in that list of Mr. Snrub's was identified as Magazine...so all of them are now id'd.

― Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Thursday, 1 April 2004 23:34 (twenty-one years ago)

Ha, DB, that whimsical one is a funny take on that album, but I'm not gonna give it up.

ok, duh... I'm a dumbass. I'm using 2000 but yeah this works. although it only works for right-side and bottom; i.e. not too helpful for a picture I've already started.

Yeah, DB I couldn't think of the album title. I would've needed to look it up.

― Broheems (diamond), Thursday, 1 April 2004 23:41 (twenty-one years ago)

am I the only one who knows that bnw's cover about 450 back was the CD5 of Dntel's "(This Is) the Dream of Evan & Chan"?

― Matos W.K. (M Matos), Thursday, 1 April 2004 23:42 (twenty-one years ago)

DB - Primus "Frizzle Fry"?

The third one in that list of Mr. Snrub's was identified as Magazine...so all of them are now id'd.

Nobody got my second one yet!

― Broheems (diamond), Thursday, 1 April 2004 23:42 (twenty-one years ago)

Dat'd be Church's Priest = Aura, Mr. Telecom

― Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Thursday, 1 April 2004 23:45 (twenty-one years ago)

I don't think so, Matos, it's just damn hard to track who has responded to which covers, I think anyone who knew it just assumed it had been answered. There were a few unanswered that I think people just assumed were covered.

I really want to see someone do doolitle without cheating.

Oh, something by Autechre.

― derrick (derrick), Thursday, 1 April 2004 23:48 (twenty-one years ago)

Bingo, derrick :)

― Trayce (trayce), Thursday, 1 April 2004 23:48 (twenty-one years ago)

Yeah Screamadelica's practically MS paint to begin with. I wonder if that last one I did is recognizeable....

Daddino's Godspeed "Yanqui" cover is HILARIOUS! (Goodbye 2nd day of work in a row)

― Ben Boyer (Ben Boyer), Friday, 2 April 2004 16:44 (twenty-one years ago)

for yr plezzzzzure

― strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Friday, 2 April 2004 16:44 (twenty-one years ago)

HAHA! Yeah, Cinniblount! I thought about doing that one, but didn't know how to pull it off. On my CD cover, you can barely see the big cat. And this memory thing is starting to get me.

Well, I'm still staring at this ol' MS Paint...

This one was inspired by a link that largeheartedboy had on his site today.

http://www.spectrasonic.com/albumcovers/bowery.jpg

...but the re-press came out on the same label as the BE record

yup, GSYBE! f#a# infinity -- was working on drawing the manilla envelope, blueprint and flattened penny (inside goodies) as a hint.
