keep em coming guys!
PS I do love the colors and they are definitely NOT too bright!
*I hate spelling errors, but hey.. I'm human!
So you ask, "Whats in it for me?" Hmmm, its a good question. Fame. I'll put your name on the caption of my vox blog. Not enough? If you're a person that has your own products, art or what-not that you sell, I'll add your link to my vox also. But seriously, I have a few items stored away (yes vinyl toys and such) that I'll offer up as the prize too! What it will be, I'll keep you posted on that.
Rules: Not too strict, but.. here they are.
- Follow the sizing for Vox banners (940 x 200 pixels) of course.
- It can be animated if you know how to do that, but its not required. It will need to be saved as an animated gif.
- No color restrictions, just make it so it will fit in with Vox's color schemes.
- Multiple entries are fine.
- Vox accounts are required to enter. All others will be rejected.
- Title should read: Vinyl Addiction.
- Subtitle: Toys, Art, Graphics & More! (note the change)
Thanks! I hope that you'll all have fun with this!
I urge all of you creative designers, artists, etc.. to follow this link and sign the petition. It is a very important bill that should be opposed as it would change our ability to protect our artwork and other creative visual works... For a number of you, I know that your art is your bread and butter, so even more so, it is important to take a look and sign! here is an excerpt, with the link following..
The Orphan Works Act will affect all images from professional paintings to family snapshots. This includes any image, whether published or unpublished - or any that resides or ever resided on the internet. It will force me to register every image I make with privately-held commercial registries. All unregistered works will be exposed as potential orphans for commercial infringement...follow this link to protect your work!

Toypunks Volume 1 will take you in-depth with Hikaru Iwanaga of Bounty Hunter, who mixed punk and toys over a decade ago to create the top fashion and toy brand in Japan. In turn, he unwittingly gave birth to the designer vinyl movement. Frank Kozik, Hiddy Kinoshita of Secret Base, Balzac, Isaac Ramos of RFSO, Carl Kent-Smith and many more make guest appearances while offering insight on the culture.
Toypunks Volume 1 goes on sale on November 15th 2007 at toypunks.com and select retailers worldwide. Each subsequent volume of toypunks will focus on a different creator while exploring the cultural connections between toys, punk and street fashion on a global scale. Expect loads of extra features, interviews and outtakes on each release. Please contact justin@toypunks.com for ordering information and inquiries.
Recently found this coverage in my Google reader: Usugrow Show at Upper Playground. This guy is very talented with the pen and ink!
Hats off to Usugrow! This is only a snippet of images found on ToyBot Studio's blog, where I found this story.
Keep up the great coverage, Toybot, glad I checked out your blog!
Usugrow has a toy coming out - this October is when it is slated for - and it looks like one that may be a pretty hot item! First version out will probably be clear grey vinyl, according to Usugrow himself. It stands about 7 inches tall and it seems that this is not nearly as big as Usugrow would lilke it to be!

Friday Night in Bristol saw a nice group of street artists ready for Secret Wars. It was scheduled to be Bristol vs. London but ended up Bristol was stood up so the artists there decided to make it a collaboration night instead. Among the artists were Rich, Inkie, 45RPM, mr. Jago and of course my friend, Gavin Strange. There's a few photos here, but many more on Gav's Jam Factory blog so check that out too.
