Prince album covers redone using ms paint

A call to all Prince fans

A friend and I redo classic album covers using ms paint. We do it on a website called http://www.paintmyalbum.net

We only have three (3) Prince albums done. We want more - Are you artistic? Have you not attempted any piece of artwork since you were 4? Either way, we want your ms paint renditions of Prince Albums. We are going to put them on in an exhibition in England once we have 2,000 covers in total. we currently have 706 - we need your help! Send in your Prince Album cover redoings to paintmyalbum@gmail.com



That is Duncan Au's effort from England. It's beautiful. I hope that inspires you. Send us your stuff!

Thanks to those of you that sent in your covers - they're great! We'll try and get them up as soon as possible. This is getting big, and people from all over the world are getting involved. If you haven't yet sent one in, what are you waiting for?

is there a list that's done and updated?

ms paint is a window application, right?

Hi,

There is no list of album covers done - Don't be afraid to do one that's been done already. It will be in your own style so it doesn't matter. Of course, if you like, you could browse through the ones done already on http://paintmyalbum.net

As for MS paint, you should find it in the accessories bit of your PC. Failing that, you can do a google search for paint applications, and find a clone.

Thanks, Prince fans. We're now nearly at 1,000, so well done to everyone who sent one in. If you've got a spare 5 minutes, give us a hand. Send a cover in to paintmyalbum@gmail.com
