Can I ask you guys a favor? (Need a hand for uni.)

So recently I decided to get back to studying after a bit of a break and I'm doing this unit in HTML and CSS, pretty standard stuff and not that difficult. Anyway, my final assignment is coming up and I'm supposed to make a website but all the suggestions are gag worthy (family tree, local cafe and that sort of shit) and the first website I made for this unit was for a friends band so I was thinking of ways to build upon that. I came up with the brilliant idea that maybe you guys could help me expand the scope a bit by adding your own projects. I mean, it's not actually going to be seen by anyone except my tutor (at least not in this iteration) so you don't actually get anything out of it but you would be doing me a big favor.

What I need is for a couple of people to post the following stuff:
1. A bio for yourself or your band (it can be complete bullshit, make it funny if you want. I don't mind).
2. Some sort of photo or graphic representing the band (a shot of you playing is preferable but as long as you own the picture it can be a cat in a sailors outfit or whatever).
3. A link to your music. Bandcamp is preferable (because it meets a assignment req) but soundcloud is also coolness.

Sorry it's so much work (maybe I should have stuck to a survey or something for my first time :idk: ) but just know that it's all very much appreciated.

I will post a screen shot when it's all done (it's not being uploaded to any server). You will miss all the pretty animations and stuff but they will probably suck anyway.
Thanks again.

I still need a few more of you to give it all up in return for animal pics.

Haha thanks man. Honestly it's the permission to use your stuff (pic and music) that's the important part, whether you consider yourself a "real band" or not is none of my business and like I mentioned you can just make up the bio part. If you want to say that your a retired pterodactyl riding commando who plays cyber-ukelele then that's cool.

It's cool guys, I think I will take this in a different direction. I needed quite a few people and it doesn't look like it going to happen.

Thanks for your help.

Haha guys, jeez. Clearly I am just not patient enough. I've already started the design documents and creating assets for my other idea and this thing is due pretty soon so I can't really flip-flop at this late stage. I might actually do this project for serious later down the line though. I feel like a jerk saying all this after you guys have stuff ready.

Ha ha - no worries, I know how deadlines can go, man. Once you're on a course, you need to just go with it. Good luck with the new strategy. Definitely post links here to show us how it turns out, even if it's not band-related.
