Shameless Self (or other) Promotion

by **ShoreSlayer** » Mon Oct 03, 2011 5:54 pm

Just a thread for anyone with a business, a band, a charity or whatever... any project ya might wanna pimp out for whatever reason.

I'm starting it with (and because of) my sister in-law's new t-shirt business. She does simple graphic design stuff in her spare time and silk screens them onto t-shirts and has just launched her website in support of this. I saw one design in particular that I thought some ppl here might like and figured I'd just post about the whole site and let people check it out as they like.

The business is called Sporting Chance Designs. It's a pretty basic template sort of site so basically you can just check out the various designs using the catalog links at the top. The Bad Teddy stuff is being pretty well received and it was the You're On Ignore one with the headphones that made me think of you all

Anyways, enjoy!

And get pimpin'!!

Boyfriend's band, Bound By Entrails: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zZ_zzNGXPUI
Enslaved likes them. Enslaved thinks they're cool. So they must be cool, right?

You know the wise ass in me wanted this to be god awful just for the jokes, but it's surprisingly listenable (if you enjoy the genre). Their name is uber generic to the Nth degree though, should consider changing it. But what do you expect from a bunch of "Moose Lovers"

And what are you doing hanging with a dude who likes it brutal ???

Well the band is sorta kaput, since the founder/producer/frontman moved to Wisconsin, so there won't be a name change. But they're sitting on a pile of unsold CDs and merch, if anyone is interested

Maybe I can get them to change the band name to Moose Lovers

Upon seeing the picture and the title, it reminds me of some other very popular expansion of some other very popular MMORPG.

If you want to change your look, I can make you some synthetic dreadlocks like the ones in my profile picture (not necessarily pink or weavy

) or other kinds of hair extensions. They are not permanent and do not ruin your own hair.

I also sell lots of alternative accessories, hair dye in cool colours, makeup etc...

You can visit Madame LePink here: http://www.madamelepink.com

And you can like MLP on Facebook as well: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Madame-LePink/145458118827081 and share with your friends

That's incredibly well done. Wow. You really should be a professional. I love landscape pics. Much, much more than people pics.

Thanks! I actually like people pics better but end up doing landscapes way more often. Though....I've grown to like landscapes a lot more this year, and especially if combined with people in them. Photography as a job would be awesome........

so many great posts here! just a few comments for now.

MadameLePink - love the stuff on your site - maybe I can arrange to buy a few pieces of the jewelry and you could bring them on the cruise?

DragonLord - cool you published a book of poems! Who knew?

Rab - awesome!

(the only thing more awesome is your mullet picture when you were a kid)

Kate - beautiful picture!

Hmmm.... what can I promote?
I work in a really cool place! (come visit if you're in town

and I'll show you around the place) - tens of thousands of books, secret passageways, longest compact shelving units ever made (pictured below), among MANY other things.

by **Malaka** » Thu Oct 06, 2011 9:19 pm

If you stood flat footed and arms folded, that picture would be metal as fukk.

Get them to put a few dozen copies of James' book in the system!

Glad to hear that

And yes, if someone wants something, just email me before the cruise and I'll bring the things you've ordered with me :) The only thing that I need to know about at least a month in advance is dreads, as I usually have a long waiting list

Poor Fredrik has to drag a suitcase full of merchandise to Miami.

I thought the same thing picturing him lugging a bunch of extra luggage around!

That's why I figured a few pieces of jewelry wouldn't take up too much space.

Erik - I agree about what you said - that pic was a last minute decision before I went straight from work at 5:00 pm to House of Blues to see Dimmu last November - it seems most of the HoB shows are all-ages and therefore start REALLY early and end early

so no time to go home and change.

I've gotten some humorous looks and comments from the security guards (some I've known for many years) who see me walking in looking one way

and walking out looking another.

I've got a lot of fun photo shoot ideas involving metal & libraries (and me

) Whether or not I'll ever be able to pull them off where I work is another matter.

P.S. Jim - The Matrix? I like! (own all the movies on DVD

) And, FYI - I do plan on buying your poetry book.

by **EvilDan** » Fri Oct 07, 2011 7:28 am

Very nice pic, Kate! I like that it has people (unobtrusively) in it to show the scale.

It really looks like you have the main qualities to make photography a career: passion and talent.

It's awesome to see everyone's hidden talents. Keep 'em coming people!

Mr. Jones, awesome that you wrote a poetry book! I'm going to go read the sample on the page :)
