Hmm, I get annoyed that everything is tied into iTunes. I hate iTunes with a passion.
Maybe I’ll give it a try. As you say you can always cancel it.

It's not even my banana.
The "favourite quote or line" has scuppered me this week. I can chuck out a collage no problem but the other requisite has left me wanting.I'd also LOVE to see general non-collagers (sinnerjohn terse rizole come to mind...) add their 2 cents in here. Come on... let's see what you've got up your sleeves.
“Childhood is the world of miracle and wonder; as if creation rose, bathed in the light, out of the darkness, utterly new and fresh and astonishing." Eugene Ionesco
Not really related to the picture but I like it.
Waiting at the Window
A.A. Milne
These are my two drops of rain
Waiting on the window-pane.
I am waiting here to see
Which the winning one will be.
Both of them have different names.
One is John and one is James.
All the best and all the worst
Comes from which of them is first.
James has just begun to ooze.
He's the one I want to lose.
John is waiting to begin.
He's the one I want to win.
James is going slowly on.
Something sort of sticks to John.
John is moving off at last.
James is going pretty fast.
John is rushing down the pane.
James is going slow again.
James has met a sort of smear.
John is getting very near.
Is he going fast enough?
(James has found a piece of fluff.)
John has hurried quickly by.
(James was talking to a fly.)
John is there, and John has won!
Look! I told you! Here's the sun!

My process is to create the collage... then I think of words (it's almost always a song) that seem to fit it. Or you could Google quotes from people you admire... Or add some Rizole Words of Wisdom.
Pure magic, David.... this is so wonderful.
Thanks, Catherine.Pure magic, David.... this is so wonderful.

I did it. Twice. This one I did yesterday night, maybe too tired, I liked it, but somehow not enough to post right away. Looking at it today said well, it's okay.

Today I was really tired, but there was a song on the radio on the way home and I had the perfect pictures taken for it today. So I pulled myself together and did this:
Hipstamatic, Foldefy, Ripix, Aerograph, Mix On Pix

You've been reading my mind cuz this is totally me today!
Quirky and clever... love the *vibe* of the edit. Feels a bit retro kitsch...
What an artist you are, Gouvy!
And I think this might be the first appearance of JixiPix RipPix in MC?
RoseCat Catherine has kindly agreed to a 24 hour extension for MC this week so that
GroovyGouvy has some time, poor terse might perhaps find his ideas
rizole can work out that he can ask a passing teenager or adult ‘what line from an x or x or x goes with this’ or, indeed, stick a pin in a book of quotes, or, if all else fails, post the collage and invite his Mobi-friends to suggest a line/quote [challenge within a challenge, innit],
sinnerjohn can get over himself a bit more and discover creativity is the gift that keeps on giving
WildPlace to remember here at MobiTog we don’t allow ‘resting on laurels’
Have I missed anything, Cat?
PS: so many definitions of collage around the place - from ‘more than one photo in s frame’ to ‘multi-media art’ and everything in between. Some of the quotes https://austinkleon.com/2010/02/10/25-quotes-to-help-you-steal-like-an-artis are new to me

Both quotes relate to the picture for me, and the three together make for a beautiful meditation on childhood - all the better for knowing the little beings in the picture are yours.

So why not just doing a collage just with quotes?!

This is so nice! But for me I don't need extension here anymore(but on Time Stamp [emoji1]), I'm done and i did twice as much as I thought, though still only one really okay. [emoji23]
Hope someone else might be able to make it worth (rizole?) [emoji4]
As long as there’s time, a haiku quote
Before the Fire

It's not even my banana.
Oh well, as you put it so nicely it would be rude not to
I wont bore you with the details but I have had a difficult couple of weeks and not had the headspace for this challenge.
So here's one I did last year, it's a picture with words so nearly qualifies.
It's my mate Lee who has a face that looks lived in. The quote is from some noir B&W movie, can't remember which but probably had Bogart in it.
I'll see if I can russel something up today as the deadline's been extended.
This is beautiful, Star. Looks like a Stackables edit? Love the tones. All a bit surreal, too, with the haiku suggesting the ‘after’ in the title and the barn (nottomention the eerie glow) suggesting ‘before’.

Ahhhhh the misery continues
Wait, maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree.....'Collage made from photographs, or parts of photographs, is called photomontage. Photomontage is the process (and result) of making a composite photograph by cutting and joining a number of other photographs.'
Is that what we are supposed to be doing?
In the words of Kimmy Schmidt - URETHRA!Ahhhhh the misery continues

I think he’s got it! That’s the point I was making (very unclearly as it turns out) with my elephant montage.

And wouldn’t it be just amazing in black and white too. That’s a Richard Stark quote apparently.
Get back in your box, John, and go and sulk around the Black and White Challenge.Ahhhhh the misery continues

Mobitog never was a place of hard and fast rules. 
I’ve been singing this (in my head luckily) since I saw this. Love the “stuck on” “ripped” bits. Great one Gouvy.
