I just realized the next Songfight title I work on will be my 50th (counted over all projects). I should do one soon!

I just noticed on the front page that it says this song is due Wednesday 11/10/12. I had a mini panic moment. :ugeek:

It's been a long time since I've submitted to Songfight, and I'm a much better music-maker than I was last time... so this should be fun. Submitted under the moniker CD the Remix.

I've got a song, but life in Afghanistan may not let me get it in on time. It's been a while, hopefully I can participate anyway.

Also, I've decided to change my 'submitting as' name. I've been on songfight for ten years (holy shit), and I think I've quite grown out of The Sober Irishman. Henceforth, I will simply be Sober.

Spud, If I wanted to 'link' the two entries in the archive, would that fall under the instructions posted here?

I'm still at work from an overnight video editing session, but I may be able to put something together while I upload. I miss Bortwein and Jessica Hale :[

Aw. :( So true. Those were the "good old days" of Song Fight! for me. This makes me think I need to make some artwork oriented features for the SF jukebox...

I've got something cooked up. I'm leaving the office now, I'll email it from my room. Spud needs a 400x400 and a 150x150, anything else?

Maybe the Unfunny comix creator could somehow be adapted for making cover art? I'm sure if there were an easy widget more of us would give it a shot.

The current system in place to submit art is designed for the lowest common denominator to use with ease. I know because I've submitted art on multiple occasions with ease. Image

I whipped up a little gallery view of the fight art on the Song Fight! Jukebox:

http://sfjukebox.org/fights/gallery

Did you know there are 188 different cover artist names in the archive? And the top five unique cover artist names with the most covers are:

| bortwein | 91 |
| king arthur | 32 |
| Gemini6Ice | 23 |
| Lauren Hale | 21 |
| Rabid Garfunkel | 20 |

King Arthur actually has several more but they are under "King Arthur feat. ...".

Also it looks like the thumbnail view in the official art archive has broken art images?

http://www.songfight.org/artindex.php?s ... humbs=true

Final factoid: One fight, "Say the Word", has cover art but no credited artist.

Pretty cool, Lunk!

By the way, no art up yet? You do know the big man is going to wait this one out until this potato grows eyes, right? :D

I'll get something done. bbl.
