Sorry for the lack of posts this weekend… I forgot to bring my laptop power cord down to PAX East so I couldn’t get into my email or Photoshop. I did have some submissions in the queue for next week so I went ahead and pushed them up to post earlier… my apologies to all of you who are now sick of the Courage Kratos meme! He’s not a bad meme, he’s just misunderstood!

Finally… I’ve been so busy the last week or so I’ve had no time to put this together! You may have noticed on the con schedule I’ll be at PAX East (wandering around)… and although you may be able to spot me ahead of time wearing a familiar hat combination, a few friends and I are also doing an informal meet-up at the mall food court on Sat at noon. So until I think of a better name, be ready to attend…
HALOLZ/WEBCOMIC FOOD COURT MEET-UP MADNESS
Featuring:
Shawn Handyside – HALOLZ Editor, Former Artist of Staccato, Compulsive Shirt Designer
Caldwell Tanner – LOLDWELL, CollegeHumor, Creator of our FALCON LUNCH T-Shirt
Tina Pratt – Artist of The Paul Reveres, PUPTART.net, Creator of our MEDICS T-Shirt
Unconfirmed appearances by:
Brian Wilson – Artist of Geist Panik, Hookie Dookie Panic, HALOLZ Contributor
Mike Moore – HALOLZ Former Asst. Editor, Blogger
And everyone who comes to the meet-up gets some free gifts! Pretty awesome right? And if no one shows up it’s cool because we’re all gonna eat crappy mall food and make fun of you behind your back! And you don’t want that to happen!

Just a quick note… I had a lot of complaints about the “random” buttons not working on the site, so I’ve gone ahead and updated them with a new plugin. The old one worked MOST of the time, but for some reason it would occasionally just stop working. Anyway if there are any problems with it from this point on, please let me know!

What? More conventions ALREADY??
Yes we’ll be back on the road this weekend (and driving thru mountains of snow) to hang out at Katsucon 16 in Washington D.C.!
Alyssa and I will be stationed in the dealers room, conveniently located next to our friends Jen and Brion (of Mystic Revolution and Flipside respectively), so if you feel like fighting the weather you should stop by! Alyssa will have a massive pile of her video game bead magnets for sale, and I will be trying out two brand new shirts that are not yet available online! Exciting! See you there!

Made some long overdue tweaks to the site’s code this morning… only thing you may actually notice is the new “Retweet” button which makes sharing your favorite submissions on Twitter even easier!
Remember, one of the easiest and most effective ways you can help support Halolz is to Stumble, Retweet and Facebook Share all your favorite submissions! It really makes a big difference.
Thanks!
Oh and there may be a new background for the site. >__>

Well it’s been a while since I did any kind of write-up after a show, but you know what? MAGFest was a great show! Despite the fact that I had to man the Halolz booth most of the time, here are some of the highlights of my crazy four day weekend.

This New Year’s… your mind… BLOWN.
This weekend spend your New Year’s at MAGFest, the video game music festival featuring bands, games and so much more! Also featuring… me! I’ll be there hanging out, promoting Halolz and selling some of the fine wares of Ninja-Bot!
But what’s that, you live in Texas and can’t make it to MAGFest? Well why not check out Ikkicon instead? My good friend (and Star Wolf t-shirt artist) Matt Herms will be there with a selection of Ninja-Bot shirts! Be sure to stop by his guest table and check out his stuff!
