Here's hoping this doesn't count as a spammy advert...

I gotta pay for some major car repairs, so I'm selling one of my collection's babies...my Crisis Core limited edition PSP.

It's never been used, just sat nice on a shelf like a true nerd would treat it. The little metal buster sword strap is still with it, and I'll send the charger along as well.

The decal on it is of Sephiroth, Cloud and Zack. I'm really hoping this will go to a proper FF fan's home, and be treated nice.

yon ebay auction of said PSP...

Holiday debuggery

We know there were a few kinks with the holiday promotion. We've been working very hard to get them ironed out. If you have a paid/permanent account, keep on sending those coupons. Here's an update:

  • If you were unable to send out multiple coupons at a time, please perform a hard refresh, and you should be good to go.
  • If you redeemed a coupon to upgrade your account and the balance at checkout was $0 instead of $9.95 or $15, this means your upgrade did not go through (nor were you charged). We've straightened this out, so you can now apply your holiday coupon toward the purchase of an annual paid account.
  • If you tried to redeem a holiday coupon and had trouble using a gift certificate to cover the balance of an annual paid account, we identified the root problem. If this happened to you, you can now use your holiday coupon together with your gift certificate.
  • If the number of holiday coupons you have available suddenly goes up (instead of down), this might be due to recipients declining the coupons, at which point your pool of available coupons will be replenished and, therefore, increase.
  • If you need assistance with holiday coupons or pretty much anything else (well, LiveJournal related), please open a support request and we'll be more than happy to help!

Tweaks

  • There were some initial glitches displaying results on My Guests, but we've worked them out. We hope you'll check out who's been checking you out!
  • Some of you reported formatting issues using the Rich Text Editor (i.e., line breaks were being removed incorrectly). We've implemented a fix! Thanks so much for your patience.

Give a little extra!

We're pleased to report that we've already sold over 100 virtual red ribbons in honor of National AIDS Awareness month. Remember, for each charitable vgift you purchase for $2.99, we'll donate 100 percent of gross proceeds to IAVI.org (the International AIDS Vaccine Initiative) to fund the development of an HIV vaccine. Once again, we thank you for your generosity.

Celebrate with holiday vGifts!

Stop by the Virtual Gift Shop and share some holiday magic with your LiveJournal friends.

Does the term 'hoity-toity' come from the French words for 'high roof'?

My apologies for being unable to limit my graphic, nerdish glee to smaller numbers. Again, icons are created from real images & illustrations of snowflakes -- up close and personal.

A special shout-out to [info]glamourcorpse, who is as generious as they are beautiful and talented. Dear Santa, please send their heart's desire this year!

There's a real post coming, but in the meantime, I thought I'd let everyone know that I recently caved to the prevailing trend-winds, and am now on Facebook.  Look me up and Friend me, if you dare.

I'm curious ~ how many of you buy and stick to witches almanacs? I've been using one this year and I'm contemplating buying another next year. Although some of the set rituals in them sometimes seem a little... iffy, I enjoy having a structure to work to as it makes me feel productive.

And also, I had a new tattoo does last weekend, I thought people here might appreciate seeing it. It's a celtic triskele, born of my love of celtic art. :)
