			<description><![CDATA[<span style="font-family: Arial;">hello there, ^-^<br />
I heard about the street team designs for their T-shirt project<br />
(which was cancelled) :( they looked like they were gonna be awesome  shirts, even before hearing about the project, I really wanted to design my own VAMPS T-shirt.. but I don't know how to get the design the<br />
shirt I want, or even which design I want I've never done this before either so.. if anyone wants to share tips or ideas~<br />
<br />
I would love to hear-err read them ^-^ <img src="http://vamps.baka-koneko.com/images/smilies/icon_heart.gif" alt="Icon_heart" title="Icon_heart" class="smilie smilie_39" /><br />
<br />
What I thought about was maybe a black t-shirt<br />
that says VAMPS across in a darkish Red color,<br />
 and my name "~R.A.I.N~" on the back in the same way<br />
with a design on the back  or front, because just "VAMPS"<br />
and my name seems a bit boring..<br />
<br />
maybe I could add "Vamp Addict"<br />
or a lyric somewhere on it.. maybe "Embrace our Instinct.."<br />
<br />
And I want to make Hyde a present, maybe a painting or something<br />
I don't know how to get it to him :( any ideas?<br />
<br />
xD another thing I want to do is start working on a banner for the next time they have a show in NYC. I'm such a Newbie.. ^-^ teehehe</span><span style="font-size: small;"></span>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Hello all! Wasn't sure where to post this so here it is on the Fan Projects page.<br />
<br />
I am a bass player that's also a fan of VAMPS. I am trying to put together a VAMPS Cover Collaboration (Just instrumental or with Vocals). Any guitarists/drummers/vocalist want to take a shot at it? It's like most YouTube Band-type Cover collaboration.<br />
<br />
So far I've done a video for LOVE ADDICT.<br />
<br />
<!-- start: video_youtube_embed --><br />
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/mgAg_w7lntQ" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br />
<!-- end: video_youtube_embed --><br />
<br />
also did a cover for EUPHORIA.<br />
<br />
<!-- start: video_youtube_embed --><br />
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/VMc65UU--k4" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br />
<!-- end: video_youtube_embed --><br />
<br />
Songs that I am thinking of doing are:<br />
1) Gotta kick start now<br />
2) Evanescent<br />
<br />
Please contact me if you or know of anyone that would be interested in this collaboration! <br />
<br />
Thanks in advance<br />

Just a little motivational video, not only to convince those fans that prefer not to go, but also to get those already going, (like me), pumped.

I never found any photos but I bought the Sweet Dreams single + DVD.  Well, unfortunately I can't get screen shots off it because I don't have a program to do it.  So my only options it seems are to learn how to burn a copy of the DVD to my computer so I'm working with an avi file or download a high quality version of the PV... either avi or vob.  I don't know if I should be asking this here but I'm really at a loss and this is honestly for my own personal use so I can scrap book my concert experience with VAMPS in Vegas.  I specifically want screen shots from the PV as I am in it ^_^ also, I feel I should ask if there were any scenes on the tour DVD from Vegas.  I'll really be thrilled if anyone can help me.  Feel free to PM me if you need to.  I just want to scrap book this so I'll never forget the details. ^_^]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Alright you guys, so this might be a little bit tricky to pull off.. but I wanted to give it a try.<br />
<br />
A brief introduction:<br />
<br />
I'm Belle. I'm a professional, full time photographer, and also a big VAMPS fan. XD <br />
My focus is photographing cool people + musicians/entertainers. Here's my portfolio: <a href="http://isabelle-ribeiro.com" target="_blank">http://isabelle-ribeiro.com</a><br />
<br />
~<br />
I thought of something cool that we could do for the band. <br />
I am located in Florida but plan to attend the NY show.<br />
While in town, I thought it would be a cool idea to get together with as many fans possible, and I would take their portrait. The final project would consist of puting all the photos I take of the fans in a video (soundrack by VAMPS of course) and then send it to the band (that part I am still unsure of how to do- street team, any ideas?)<br />
<br />
I am trying to see what everyone's interest in this is. Please give me some feedback. :O<br />
<br />
p.s.: Anyone who actually resides in Florida can contact me as well and I can take their portrait for the project here in Orlando.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">SPECIFICS/FAQ:</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">What is this project supposed to be?</span><br />
- A VAMPS 'music video' featuring fans only. I plan on taking portraits of everyone as well as some video footage and put it all together in a video.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">What song will be used?</span><br />
- No idea. Taking suggestions. I will do a poll once I have some suggestions and we can all vote.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Where will this be shot?</span><br />
- New York, since many fans will be there for the concert. Exact location to be determined. Once I figure out which hotel I'll be staying at, I will call them and ask if they would allow me to use the room for the shoot. I don't see why they would have a problem with it, since it's non-profit and wouldn't take more than a few hours.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">When will this happen?</span><br />
- Tentative date: October 8th, time to be determined. Preferably morning.]]></description>

Oh geez, all I did was make the single Mario comparison and now this whole board is suddenly filled to the brim with Mario references.  Okay, those were all mine, too.  I didn't know whether to put this under Fan Projects or Promotion since it kind of goes under both, but anyway...<br />
<br />
I sat down a few days ago and made a mini-site for the VAMPS 2010 world tour, and I finally got around to uploading and registering its subdomain and with Tokio's permission decided to share it with you guys!<br />
<br />
What's the purpose of this site and why the hell am I doing this?  Because I'm an obsessed douche and probably need to do something better with my time like hanging out with friends or going shopping?  While that may be a very accurate description, it's far from the point.  The purpose of this mini-site is to give fans a small, easy site containing everything they need to know about the tour (including dates, venue, and contact info), where to buy merchandise, and a full, or as full as humanly possible, list of all fan promotional activities and fan projects.  Not just from the United States, but from all possible nations.<br />
<br />
Okay, I know what you're thinking, that's what this forum is for.  Simply put, not everyone uses this forum.  Furthermore, although street teams and other such groups encourage the participation of all users from around the world to participate, people who don't speak the native language of presenter of the project might find it difficult to participate, let alone know about the projects and promotional tactics.  SO what I want to do is make a full base of knowledge of fan projects and fan promotional material from all different nationalities (with the OK from the person presenting them, of course) in English, so that it can spread to a larger audience, thus allowing more people to participate, and hopefully make VAMPS feel more loved when they see the projects for their own eyes!<br />
<br />
Also, the VAMPS official website is very flash-oriented, which can be difficult for promoting with the use of a mobile phone or laptop (without high-speed internet connection).  This site uses only HTML and two minor JavaScript codes (which act as background operations and therefore will not affect the download speed in any way).  So it will make promotion MUCH easier.<br />
<br />
<del>My first addition to the site, once I get her permission, is H.P.'s fan book.</del> (<span style="font-weight: bold;">EDIT</span> - Added!)  If you have any project or promotional material you'd like to submit, feel free to tell me (preferably a download-able version so that I can host it on the site myself; trust me, it just makes things a LOT easier).<br />
<br />
You can view the site here-<br />
<a href="http://vamps2010.bizz.cc" target="_blank">http://vamps2010.bizz.cc</a><br />
(This link will redirect you, so don't fret if you notice the frames at the top disappear)<br />
<br />
To answer some questions right now-<br />
1) VAMPS promotional material includes, but is not limited to, fliers, banners, stickers, H.P. (designer) and Pink.Revolution's (person who had them made) pencils that Usagi Hoshino photographed, etc.  It also includes strategies and other forms of advice in regards to promoting.<br />
2) Fan projects refer to things that will be given to VAMPS.<br />
3) On the site, it says that projects that can be put together without the aid of multiple users will not be accepted.  I have yet to take that down, but fear not, that is NOT the case!  After a bit of thinking, I thought to myself, no!  That's not right!  Allowing people to submit one-man/one-woman projects will give fans ideas and standards as to what to present VAMPS.<br />
4) Like H.P.'s projects, they must be kept appropriate!  I'm sorry, but I will not be accepting nude pictures of yourself licking a blow-up buddy of HYDE with an extremely explicit message underneath.  I know that's REALLY tempting.  Believe me, I've been there... okay, no I haven't.  But please, keep it clean. *shudders*  This is only ONE standard by which the term "appropriate" is used.  Everyone here, I -assume- is over the age of 13 and fully capable of understanding the concept themselves, so I won't treat you like children and spell it out for you.  (For those who are under 13, "it" is spelled "I-T")<br />
5) Feel free to let me know when something is out of date or needs updated.  I have a life... shocking, I know... so I can't always be on top of things.  So a quick heads-up is always nice.<br />
6) I appreciate all the help and suggestions I can get.<br />
7) I will not be accepting any "CAN I HELP ADMINISTRATE?!"  It's a really small mini-site.  I don't think I -need- that much help. :X<br />
8) The URL will work both with <span style="font-weight: bold;">and</span> without "www."<br />
9) Yes, I am fully aware of the main page's text switching places and am currently working on a fix.  For now you're just going to have good eyes and lots of patience.  Sorry. =(<br />

<br />
Thanks for your participation and let's make sure that VAMPS has a rockin' tour this year!<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">EDITS</span><br />
1) I probably should have made this clear before (although I have not had problems with it yet) that all promotional content you submit, if physically possible, will be open for download and distribution unless you instruct me otherwise.  Please tell me if you don't want it being distributed across the interwebz before submitting.  Thanks. (This mainly applies to videos as other promotional material is pretty much INTENDED to be spread around like such)<br />
2) Any images and videos you send me will be scaled, and cropped if necessary, to fit the page and to make loading the page relatively quick and easy.  Users -will- however have the option to view the images and videos in full size.<br />
3) I know it may seem expensive, but I would PREFER it if you rip the footage from DVD's as opposed to download them off YouTube.  I'll accept them regardless, but the quality is undeniably better and it would seem sort of hypocritical to be talking about support with all the TV station watermarks on it. XD (Though you are more than welcome to have your own watermarks)<br />
4) Fliers can be on any format, but if you can make them into files that can be read on Adobe Reader or anything like that, that would be awesome (you know, that way I don't have to program a "Print" button).]]></description>

Just a short happy birthday or something will do. Of course I haven't made it yet but I will and it will be big enough to allow everyone to sign it. I will post a picture of it when done (but I do have a nasty habit of waiting til the last minute to finish things :\) Don't worry I will proof read what is said and if I can't read the language I'll get someone who can just to make sure nothing offensive or foul is placed on it.

			<description><![CDATA[I am in the process of creating a fanbook that will consist of fanart, messages to VAMPS, VAMPS-inspired photos (i.e. cosplaying, people doing "V" for "VAMPS"), etc... I really want people who are unable to attend VAMPS shows in the U.S. this summer to submit their work. The book will be given to VAMPS either at their show in Los Angeles (October 1st) or San Francisco (October 3rd).<br />
<br />
This is an opportunity to have your voices heard and to let VAMPS know how much you appreciate all they've done. <span style="font-weight: bold;">ANY VAMPS fan</span> is more than welcome to participate, but I highly encourage those who are not going to a VAMPS live to participate. It is also really important that fans all over, from different areas participate. That way, VAMPS can see that they're loved in all parts of the world. ;) VAMPS work hard to create the music that they do. Also, they work extra hard to make their music much more accessible to fans overseas. This fanbook is also being created in an effort to say, "Thanks."<br />
<br />
<br />
The fanbook will be divided into the following sections: fanart, photography, and messages. Please read on for a description of each section, as well as for submission guidelines.<br />
<br />
------------------------<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">TRADITIONAL ARTWORK</span><br />
<br />
One section of this book is dedicated entirely to fanart. Fans are welcome to submit drawings, paintings, etc... Inspiration: your love for VAMPS. Do you have some HYDE, K.A.Z, Ju-ken, Arimatsu, or Jin artwork that you'd like VAMPS to see? Were you particularly inspired by a HYDE/K.A.Z/VAMPS song one day and decided to create something? These are just ideas in case you're wondering what I mean by "fanart." I think VAMPS will be really touched to see artwork fans have created as a result of being inspired by VAMPS' music or even by VAMPS themselves.<br />
<br />
I am unable to provide an address for you to actually mail me your work, any traditional artwork should be scanned and e-mailed to me.<br />
<br />
Scans: one way to submit your work of art is through scanning. Please make sure the resolution of your scan is set to 300 dpi. Otherwise, if it is much smaller than that, it will become very pixelated. If you need help changing the resolution, please send me a message.<br />
<br />
Photos: another way to submit a traditional artwork is by taking a photo. If you choose to do so, I recommend taking the photo outside. Natural lighting works best in these instances and will help prevent the photo from coming out too dark.<br />
<br />
Size: the fanbook will be 7x7 inches. Works of art can be in any size, but please be aware that they will be scaled down to fit on a 7x7 inch page.<br />
<br />
*Please also make sure to include the following information with your submission:<br />
<br />
- Title (If there is one.)<br />
<br />
- Artist (How would you like me to credit you?)<br />
<br />
- Medium (i.e. Did you use pen, pencil, acrylic paint, oil paint, ink, etc..?) Also indicate what you drew/painted the image on (i.e. canvas, paper, etc..)<br />
<br />
- Size (What is the size of your submission? I.e. 18 x 24 inches, 7x7 in, etc..)<br />
<br />
*All traditional artwork should be sent here: i.heart.VAMPS@gmail.com<br />
<br />
<br />
-------------------------------------<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">MESSAGES</span><br />
<br />
This section will consist of fans' message to VAMPS. Messages should be written with the idea in mind that VAMPS may actually read it. So, please try to keep your messages appropriate (you can use your judgment in that regards). Of course, I encourage you to be creative and really express yourself. Also, please put your heart into what you write. Only you can be the judge of that, so I will also leave that to your discretion. The message can be as short or as long as you want it to be. I will edit the messages for any grammar/spelling errors. Please note that VAMPS' comprehension of English is limited. Messages in all languages are welcome; however, I am only fluent in English, so if you could provide an English translation for your message, that would be really great. If you can't, that's fine too. We'll work something out.<br />
<br />
Ways you can submit your messages:<br />
<br />
- E-mail/MySpace message: you can type your message to VAMPS in the body of an e-mail/private message and send it to me on the VAMPS USA forum, here on MySpace, or here: i.heart.vamps@gmail.com<br />
<br />
- Letter: if you decide to write a traditional letter, please scan it (or take a photo of it) and e-mail it to me here: i.heart.vamps@gmail.com<br />
<br />
Please keep in mind that the resolution of your scan of the letter to VAMPS should be at least 300 dpi. If you decide to take a photo of it, again, try to do so outside in the sunlight. Natural lighting works best.<br />
<br />
<br />
------------------------------<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">PHOTOGRAPHY</span><br />
<br />
This section will consist of photos of VAMPS fans. For example, this section will have photos of fans cosplaying as members of VAMPS, fans doing "V" for "VAMPS," fans doing other "VAMPS-inspired" things, etc... These are just to name a few ideas. Artists really, really love to see photos of their fans, VAMPS included. I think this will be a great opportunity for VAMPS to literally see all of the people they have touched and inspired.<br />
<br />
Ways to submit your photos:<br />
<br />
- You can upload your photos to an image-hosting website (i.e. imageshack.com or Photobucket) and send me an e-mail or message with the link. Photos that are e-mailed should be sent here:<br />
<br />
i.heart.vamps@gmail.com<br />
<br />
- You can also just simply e-mail me your photo here: i.heart.vamps@gmail.com<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #FF0000;"><br />
Absolute FINAL DEADLINE for all submissions: August 1st, 2010</span><br />
<br />
<br />
AnyVAMPS, if you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to e-mail me or send me a private message. I really, really hope more people will participate. I can't stress enough the importance of this project. So, please...Thanks!!<br />
<br />

			<description><![CDATA[So, I'm thinking of doing a repeat of last year's project which involved a banner for each show VAMPS will perform at in the U.S. + a small thank-you card (for the staff). I would also like to create another fanbook as well. I'm still working on the details, but I would also like to invite anyone who might not be able to attend any of the lives on this tour to participate in the fanbook project. Much like the last fanbook, this will will also be geared towards giving fans the opportunity to express their love for VAMPS, including those unable to attend a live. What do you guys think? Anyone willing to participate?<br />

			<description><![CDATA[Now that some of the dates have been released, promoting this tour may be a little bit more difficult, as it is on a global scale. I think the first and foremost goal would be to get as many tickets sold in each country VAMPS decide to play in. We can all promote the tour as a whole online (i.e. utilizing social networking sites). However, when it comes to fliering, etc... I think we'll then have to promote VAMPS according to our country. For instance, USA fans post fliers with information pertaining to the shows in the U.S.. Fans in France, Chile, Spain, etc... can post fliers with information pertaining to lives in their respective countries. Make sense? I'll outline this a bit more, but please, if you are interested in helping to spread the word about this tour, please respond to this thread. Thanks. <br />

			<description><![CDATA[Alright, I know cathb started a topic like this already, but I barely checked out this part of the forum just today because I thought of the same exact idea just now.<br />
<br />
Everyone on that thread said they only have Windows Movie Maker which isn't going to do them ANY good when it comes to any professional editing. So this idea never became concrete. <br />
<br />
Well, not claiming I'm a professional, but I think I might be the closest thing this forum's got! I'm a film student! Owning several good software (i.e. Adobe Premiere Pro) <br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/tbhproduction" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/tbhproduction</a> (sample of some of my works, nothing special, but I know a few things about filming)<br />
<br />
So like cathb has suggested, fans had taken some clips of themselves waiting in line for VAMPS and whatnots. To add on to this idea, I was thinking fans add some commentary or even blog about what happened, how they felt, etc. <br />
<br />
Also, another idea, I was thinking collaborating a fan music video! Like lip-syncing, play syncing. So for example, we comprise a video of people playing bass, guitar, drums, and singing. Here's a visual example. Canon Rock w/ 75 people: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQV5pz-ylz0" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQV5pz-ylz0</a> Like I said earlier, play and lip syncing, so no one would be left out if they couldnt sing or play. <br />
<br />
It's a huge responsibility on my part, but I'm willing to do it. But I will need a few more others to help coordinate. Once I can get atleast 12-15 people agreeing on this, I will work out and plan and lay them out. We got the entire Spring and Summer to do this! But if we do do it, we must finish by august.]]></description>

Is it possible to incorporate all of this fan waiting, still pics, videos at Warped, etc. into a DVD?

I figure that they usually only see the concert footages and really don't know how long people camp in line to see them, what we do, how truly excited we are, etc. This would be a unique momento for them in addition to the hard copy stuff they are getting like the banners and fan books.  ??????]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<span style="color: #1E90FF;">*The deadline to participate in the VAMPS World-Wide fanbook project has passed! I will no longer be accepting anymore submissions. Thank you so much to all those who have participated! You guys rock. ;)<br />
<br />
Much VAMPS-love,<br />
H.P.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
-------------------------------------------------<br />
<br />
Ok, this is the third thread I have created about the fanbook (my apologies, Tokio). However, this project is very important. The deadline for the fanbook has passed. HOWEVER, I have extended the deadline until next week on <span style="color: #1E90FF;">JUNE 12th</span>. The very, very last day to send your submissions will be June 28th. Unfortunately, I can't extend the deadline any longer than that because it really does take a lot of time to add your works into the book.<br />
<br />
For those of you just tuning in and are curious about this project, the goal of this project and the idea behind it is this: I am in the process of creating a fanbook that will consist of fanart, messages to VAMPS, VAMPS-inspired photos (i.e. cosplaying, people doing "V" for "VAMPS"), etc... I really want people who are unable to attend VAMPS shows in the U.S. this summer to submit their work. The book will be given to VAMPS at their show in Los Angeles (August 1st).<br />
<br />
This is an opportunity to have your voices heard and to let VAMPS know how much you appreciate all they've done. ANY VAMPSaddict is more than welcome to participate, but I highly encourage those who are not going to a VAMPS live to participate. It is also really important that fans all over, from different areas participate. That way, VAMPS can see that they're loved in all parts of the world. ;) VAMPS work hard to create the music that they do. Also, they work extra hard to make their music much more accessible to fans overseas. This fanbook is also being created in an effort to say, "Thanks."<br />
<br />
<br />
The fanbook will be divided into the following sections: <span style="font-weight: bold;">fanart</span>, <span style="font-weight: bold;">photography</span>, and <span style="font-weight: bold;">messages</span>. Please read on for a description of each section, as well as for submission guidelines.<br />
<br />
------------------------<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">TRADITIONAL ARTWORK</span><br />
One section of this book is dedicated entirely to fanart. Fans are welcome to submit drawings, paintings, etc... Inspiration: your love for VAMPS. Do you have some HYDE, K.A.Z, Ju-ken, Arimatsu, or Jin artwork that you'd like VAMPS to see? Were you particularly inspired by a HYDE/K.A.Z/VAMPS song one day and decided to create something? These are just ideas in case you're wondering what I mean by "fanart." I think VAMPS will be really touched to see artwork fans have created as a  result of being inspired by VAMPS' music or even by VAMPS themselves.<br />
<br />
I am unable to provide an address for you to actually mail me your work, any traditional artwork should be scanned and e-mailed to me.<br />
<br />
<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Scans:</span> one way to submit your work of art is through scanning. Please make sure the resolution of your scan is set to 300 dpi. Otherwise, if it is much smaller than that, it will become very pixelated. If you need help changing the resolution, please send me a PM.<br />
<br />
<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Photos:</span> another way to submit a traditional artwork is by taking a photo. If you choose to do so, I recommend taking the photo outside. Natural lighting works best in these instances and will help prevent the photo from coming out too dark.<br />
<br />
<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Size:</span> the fanbook will be 7 x 7 inches. Works of art can be in any size, but please be aware that they will be scaled down to fit on a 7 x 7 inch page.<br />
<br />
*Please also make sure to include the following information with your submission:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #4682B4;">- Title (If there is one.)<br />
<br />
- Artist (How would you like me to credit you?)<br />
<br />
- Medium (i.e. Did you use pen, pencil, acrylic paint, oil paint, ink, etc..?) Also indicate what you drew/painted the image on (i.e. canvas, paper, etc..)<br />
<br />
- Size (What is the size of your submission? I.e. 18 x 24 inches, 7x7 in, etc..)</span><br />
<br />
*All traditional artwork should be sent here: <span style="color: #C71585;">i.heart.VAMPS@gmail.com<br />
</span><br />
<br />
-------------------------------------<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">MESSAGES</span><br />
<br />
This section will consist of fans' message to VAMPS. Messages should be written with the idea in mind that VAMPS may actually read it. So, please try to keep your messages appropriate (you can use your judgment in that regards). Of course, I encourage you to be creative and really express yourself. Also, please put your heart into what you write. Only you can be the judge of that, so I will also leave that to your discretion. The message can be as short or as long as you want it to be. I will edit the messages for any grammar/spelling errors. Please note that VAMPS' comprehension of English is limited, so a friend of mine will be working on translating the messages into Japanese. Messages in all languages are welcome. However, I am only fluent in English, so if you could provide an English translation for your message, that would be really great. If you can't, that's fine too. We'll work something out.<br />
<br />
Ways you can submit your messages:<br />
<br />
- <span style="text-decoration: underline;">E-mail/Private Message (PM)/MySpace message</span>: you can type your message to VAMPS in the body of an e-mail/private message and send it to me on this forum, MySpace, or here:<span style="color: #C71585;"> i.heart.vamps@gmail.com</span><br />
<br />
- <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Letter</span>: if you decide to write a traditional letter, please scan it (or take a photo of it) and e-mail it to me here: <span style="color: #C71585;">i.heart.vamps@gmail.com</span><br />
<br />
Please keep in mind that the resolution of your scan of the letter to VAMPS should be at least 300 dpi. If you decide to take a photo of it, again, try to do so outside in the sunlight. Natural lighting works best.<br />
<br />
<br />
------------------------------<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">PHOTOGRAPHY</span><br />
<br />
This section will consist of photos of VAMPS fans. For example, this section will have photos of fans cosplaying as members of VAMPS, fans doing "V" for "VAMPS," fans doing other "VAMPS-inspired" things, etc... These are just to name a few ideas. Artists really, really love to see photos of their fans, VAMPS included. I think this will be a great opportunity for VAMPS to literally see all of the people they have touched and inspired. <br />
<br />
Ways to submit your photos:<br />
<br />
- You can upload your photos to an image-hosting website (i.e. imageshack.com or Photobucket) and send me an e-mail or private message with the link. Photos that are e-mailed should be sent here:<br />
<span style="color: #C71585;"><br />
i.heart.vamps@gmail.com</span><br />
<br />
- You can also just simply e-mail me your photo here: <span style="color: #C71585;">i.heart.vamps@gmail.com</span><br />
<br />
<br />
Deadline extension: June 12th<br />
<br />
Absolute FINAL DEADLINE for <span style="font-style: italic;">all</span> submissions: <span style="color: #0000CD;">June 28th</span><br />
<br />
AnyVAMPS, if you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to e-mail me or send me a private message. I really, really hope more people will participate. I can't stress enough the importance of this project. So, please...Thanks!!<br />
<br />

Please keep in mind that the resolution of your scan of the letter to VAMPS should be at least 300 dpi. If you decide to take a photo of it, again, try to do so outside in the sunlight. Natural lighting works best.<br />
<br />
<br />
------------------------------<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">PHOTOGRAPHY</span><br />
<br />
This section will consist of photos of VAMPS fans. For example, this section will have photos of fans cosplaying as members of VAMPS, fans doing "V" for "VAMPS," fans doing other "VAMPS-inspired" things, etc... These are just to name a few ideas. Artists really, really love to see photos of their fans, VAMPS included. I think this will be a great opportunity for VAMPS to literally see all of the people they have touched and inspired. <br />
<br />

<br />
Absolute FINAL DEADLINE for <span style="font-style: italic;">all</span> submissions: <span style="color: #0000CD;">June 28th</span><br />

The great thing about the place is that you get free shipping on tons of items (but order has to be &#36;25) and they have detailed instructions on how to wear them! <img src="http://vamps.baka-koneko.com/images/smilies/icon_heart.gif" alt="Icon_heart" title="Icon_heart" class="smilie smilie_39" /> ooh and I googled and found a coupon code! It's only 10% off, but should work for almost everything :D After adding an item, go to the shopping cart page, then copy+paste <span style="font-weight: bold;">tenxx2</span> in the coupon code section! yay! <img src="http://vamps.baka-koneko.com/images/smilies/icon_heart.gif" alt="Icon_heart" title="Icon_heart" class="smilie smilie_39" /><br />
<br />
And if you're not sure on what kind to get or worried about them falling off or something, I think Noctilca's post is very helpful:<br />
