410L Fridge for Sale!  
I really want this to go to a good home. I really hate to sell it, but I have no way of storing it and we have no need for another fridge. We already have one. It works really well. I got it from my grandma who hadn't had it for all that long herself. I bought it in 2001. I think the discolouration on the door handles is from it being exposed to the sunlight through my kitchen window. It works just fine :)

Same conditions as before....

I don't own a trailer, nor have a way to transport anything to anyone, so you will need to bring your own trailer to my storage locker which is at Thebarton to pick things up.

If you are interested in anything, make an offer. I'll be screening all comments. Any reasonable offers will be considered. I need to move this!

AnimeNext08  
I'm hesitating to post this because every other person had something to offer...

I wanted to know if any Harry Potter cosplayer is going to AnimeNext 2008 in (late) June. I started re-reading all the HP books and naturally I have to cosplay Luna Lovegood. I started it but I'd really like to know if there's going to be anyone there. If there are a handful I can organize a Photoshoot day and location :3

Feel free to delete if this isn't allowed...

Tonks and Draco  

Hi all my names Naurarwen and I'm based in the UK. I cosplay as both Nymphadora Tonks and Draco Malfoy at various conventions through out the year. As someone who dislikes wigs I put alot of time into trying to get my hair cut to just the right length and dyed to just the right colour. Anyway I didn't want to post all my pics here as theres just far to many of them so I will also give you the photo bucket link to check them out. I'm hoping to have more Draco pictures by the end of the year.

Furniture for Sale - 1  
This is the first lot... there's more to come, I just don't have time to post it all right now.

My goal is to clear out my storage locker asap, but by the end of June at the latest. So I need to get this gone asap. I don't own a trailer, nor have a way to transport anything to anyone, so you will need to bring your own trailer to my storage locker which is at Thebarton to pick things up.

If you are interested in anything, make an offer. I'll be screening all comments.

Hello everyone, I just saw some very interesting Yarn related news over at Mugglenet. I don't know if anyone's posted about it but I figured everyone here would like it :)

Yarn!

I've come to the conclusion that I honestly lack talent in photography. I must take rather average shots, because of all of the places I am on, I hardly get noticed. A Favourite and a comment here or there but not a lot more. Its crap. Along with everything else right now.

I met up with Mandy today since she was in Adelaide and we did the rounds of the usual fabric stores including DKs. I didnt find any cotton lycra in white that I liked but Mandy offered to pick me up some from her local Spotlight :) I am working the next 3 days, but then I have Friday to Sunday off. I need to make a whip holder for Dave's Indy and fix up some other bits and pieces for Indy next week ;)

Need some robe closure help  
I'm almost finished my POA style slytherin robe for the convention i'm going to next weekend but I'm having trouble finding a close up photo of the robe closures from the movies. My grandmother and I have almost finished my robe but we are still unsure of the closure.

I found this in the how to make guide

"Robe closures:
The robe closures are soft black clasps. You can also use black Chinese frog closures. The opened loop of the frog closure will be on your left-hand side of the robe (where the patch is)."

but i'm not really sure what a black chinese frog closure looks like.
If someone could send me a link to some good photos or explain it better it would be greatly appreciated.
thanks so much

Advisory Board Nominations Open  
Advisory Board Nominations Begin

This morning we are opening the nomination process for the user-representative positions on the LiveJournal Advisory Board. A full description of the process can be found here.

To get you started, here are the basic things you should know:

- You may only nominate yourself
- Each nominee will need 100 motions of support in order to be eligible to be a candidate
- We ask that you keep your comments on the nomination posts to "I support this nomination" or something to that effect; be kind to those who will need to count the "supports", please.
- Although the nominations and election poll will take place in [info]lj_election_en, you do not need to watch the community in order to keep up with the election; we'll announce everything here as well.

Everyone here at LiveJournal is looking forward to this first-ever User-Representative election! We'd like to thank everyone who is participating. Some words from our current Advisory Board members:

danah boyd: “LiveJournal is filled with very passionate users. These users have helped shaped LJ's various communities over the last decade and it gives me great joy that LJ is recognizing and incorporating users' voices into the decision-making processes. Having user representatives from different parts of LJ on the Advisory Board will help make sure that the company is meeting the needs of its diverse constituents.”

Esther Dyson: "I'm sure we'll learn a lot from the process, and later on from the two users selected as well. Especially, I hope that the discussions before the voting will be more meaningful and more focused on policy than those in some offline campaigns."

Brad Fitzpatrick: "It's cool that SUP is getting users involved with the LiveJournal decision-making process. I look forward to seeing who the community elects and the results of our efforts working together."

Professor Lawrence Lessig: “The user elections will provide a critical check on LJ's process of maintaining a valuable and trustworthy environment for the LJ community. The mandate of the elections will give the user representatives pride of place among the members of the Advisory Board. Each of us will look to them to guide us in our judgment about how best to make LJ the community we all aspire that it will be. I look forward to welcoming the user representatives, and learning a great deal from them.”


[info]chasethestars has also made some banners for you to use, if you'd like to show your support for the candidate of your choice!

Banners + code for you to use! )
