Bing.com Map function

Just out of curiosity's sake, does anyone else get a wrong location when you type your street address into Bing?

When I type my home addy, it actually highlights my friend's house down the street, rather than mine.

Anyone? Silly, I know, but just wondering. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-hotrod.gif)

The Build-A-Figure and Collect-n-Connect Resource Thread

I thought, since it was discussed on occasion, I'd go ahead and start a thread for people who have/are looking for parts for Marvel Legends BaFs and DCU Classics CnC parts. I know I've got a boxful of extra stuff I'd be happy to help out with if anyone needs them, and I'd imagine others have extras as well. So, naturally if any trades, sales, whatever occur as a result of stuff posted here, it'll need feedback placed in the Feedback Thread in the B*S*T Forum. But since this isn't Transformer-related, it was decided the Forum of Solitude was the best place to proceed with this. So... a few ground rules outside of the standard rules that apply here for the normal B*S*T Forum:

1) Post whatever extra parts you have that you're willing to put up to help others out. If you've got pictures of the parts, great, but not necessary.

2) Indicate parts you yourself may be looking for. Maybe you can get the help you've been needing.

3) Once the trade/transaction/sale/whatever is complete, leave feedback under the proper name in the Feedback Thread.

I'm hoping this will work well, and we can all help each other out.

November/December Art Challenges: An Announcement

I'm going to suspend the art challenges for November and December for a couple reasons.

1) The holidays are busy.

2) I want everyone to have enough time, enthusiasm, and energy to participate in the 2009 Iacon Secret Santa if you should so choose. This way, there's no need to worry about creating both an art entry as well as your gift art.

Hopefully, that's alright with everyone, and we can have a great upcoming holiday season. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-ironhide.gif)

October Monthly Art Challenge Voting Thread: "Scaryformers"

And again, our great entries for this month...

Non-TF: Goofing around with Photoshop

I've been making/tweaking a base that's styled after the current version of the profiles used in Marvel's Official Handbooks of the Marvel Universe, and wanted to throw a complete version together. So, since I'm a HUGE Thor fan, and also a fan of the ValHallen character from Dexter's Lab, I thought I'd work up a profile for what he'd be like as an integrated-into-the-universe Marvel character.

The character art is by Bob Gavelle, and can be found here.

This was just for fun. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-hotrod.gif) Enjoy! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-ironhide.gif)
