Seeing as Christmas is coming it falls upon me to remind you about our lovely merchandise, which would make a super-wicked Christmas present to or from your loved ones, don't you know? So head over to the UK and Europe store or US page but you'd be sharpish to make it in time for the festive season! Don't forget the awesome calendar as well!

I've made a short promo clip for MPZ's occasional music maestro Paulo's new band Proving Ground's new album. It's nothing too flashy, it's just a little taster of what you'll get from the album. You can see the promo here. This seems a good opportunity to point out that if you have a band, website, or business that needs a flash like that making, that I am available for hire, so drop me a line. Meanwhile, check out the blog where I've added a couple of new posts this weekend!


By the way, before anyone complains I know there's an apostrophe in the wrong place in Proving Ground's album title. It's probably a rock and roll thing....... if you don't get it you're probably just not cool enough....

The 2008 Back To the Drawing Board Calendar is now available from the store. I did one of these two years ago but completely failed to get me rear into gear this time last year. I've been surprisingly organised and actually got around to doing it in plenty of time! It features 12 of the best B2DB cartoons so far- and is a mix of old and new. Quite literally in fact- Exactly 50% featured in the 2006 calendar and 50% have been done since. So what are you waiting for, go and check it out! If you wanna that is....

In the run up to Christmas I'm planning on going on a merchandising blitz, bringing out lots of lovely new T-shirts and stuff. To help me out in promoting it then I will be looking for someone to model some stuff (free stuff alert!) so if you fancy a bit of fame check out our join us page for details!

A word in your shell, like. Some of you may have noticed the return of the Donation button to the site. I always feel a bit cheeky having one (hence i removed it before!), but the fact is that running a site isn't free (not if you want to have a good one that is!) and my costs are increasing. Add to this that I'm thinking about changing hosts and it all adds up. So if anybody does ever want to help out in a small way, then just a small donation could go towards securing the future of the site and even put me on the way towards my dream of doing this full time! Any donations over £1 will be sent a special piece of mpz artwork via email.

(or if you prefer you can always just buy some of lovely merchandise!)
