Don't feel so bad now. I don't know any of those albums  :biggrin:

Me either.  I knew as soon as it was LieLow putting the collage together, I was out.
That's a word salad - and take it from me, I know word salad
I fear for the day when something happens on the right that is SO nuts that even Stadler says "That's crazy".

I would love to make one of those collages, but I admit I don't know how!  :loser:
"Likely or not, it's a dream that we keep
and at odds with our senses we'll climb
But if faith is the answer, we've already reached it
And if spirit's a sign then it's only a matter of time."

HOW TO MAKE A COVER-COLLAGE, THE STEP-BY-STEP TUTORIAL

1. Download the free program GIMP (which is useful for pretty much any kind of picture editing!).
2. Choose twenty-five albums that you want to use.
3. Create a new image in GIMP that is 500x500 pixels.
4. Look for the cover of your first album on Google Images.
5. Copy it and choose a section from that (easiest with Paint).
6. Copy that part in GIMP, resize it 100x100 (it should be bigger earlier, otherwise this will ugly!).
7. Move that part into the upper left corner (A1).
8. Repeat steps 4-6 for the remaining albums and always move the parts to the correct place.
9. Once you've finished, save the image and upload it to https://www.imgur.com or a similar site.
10. Copy the link into the following tags:
Code: [Select]
[img][/img].
11. Profit!

B2 Night Ranger - Night Ranger
B3 Bad Company - Straight Shooter

Ninja'd you but should have checked my covers more carefully with the night ranger- google images had it labelled wrong.

Yeah - I recognised it as a Nightranger cover, but as I don't have any of their albums, I had to resort to the net. Just shows, you can't always believe everything you see/read online. Sould've double checked to be sure. :facepalm:

I was pretty confident about the Nightranger bit though as the only other album cover I could think of off the top of my head that looks remotely similar  is Motorhead's Bomber.

I had the same thought but was pretty sure the plane o Bomber faced the other way. At first I thought the NR album was Dawn Patrol as it made sense with the pic until I googled it.
