Ghostmas Decorations!
		Posted by Swain on 09 Oct 2007
	To prepare you guys for Halloween, I've created two little Ghostmas decorations that you can print out and stick on your door, window, or whatever you want. I'm going to be making a few more over the next two weeks so I hope you check back! All decorations will also be available in the Downloads section. Ghostmas Sign Hanging Blockhead Note: Try gluing or taping the Hanging Blockhead cutout from the bottom nail of the Ghostmas Sign cutout. It works better if you have a metal hole-punch fastner for him to swing from! Don't forget about the Official Ghostmas Contest! I've received quite a few entries so far, and there's still plenty of time until the October 25th deadline! Blockhead himself will discuss all the entries in a Flash cartoon to be released just after Halloween. And to prepare you for the upcoming Ghostmas cartoon, here's a screen capture of a cell in progress: Merry Ghostmas!

		Official TheSwain.com Ghostmas Contest
		Posted by Swain on 02 Oct 2007
	It's time to celebrate Blockhead's third Ghostmas, and this year YOU have the chance to get involved! To participate, all you need to do is draw a picture of YOUR perfect Ghostmas, save it as a jpg, bmp, gif, or png file, and then send it as an email attachment to fanstuff@theswain.com with the word Ghostmas anywhere in the title. Don't forget to include the name you would like to appear beneath your submission in your email! Entries will be accepted until October 25th, and please, no multiple submissions! Submissions will be judged using the following criteria: 1) Relevance - Does your work look like it represents Ghostmas? 2) Originality - Is your work just a copy of existing Ghostmas ideas from Episodes of Blockhead, or is it a new and creative idea of your own? 3) Would Blockhead Like It? - Imagine that Blockhead will see your work. Do you think he would agree with your vision? 4) Effort - You'll be competing against many other participants, so try to show that your vision of Ghostmas is stronger than theirs. The winner will be announced when Blockhead's latest Ghostmas toon is released at the end of this month, and Blockhead himself will pick the winner! That's right: Blockhead will review every single entry, and then declare who the King/Queen of Ghostmas is for this year. The contest is officially on, so get started! I'll announce additional prizes over the course of the month :) Here is a link to the official thread.

		Some Voices
		Posted by Swain on 23 Sep 2007
	I did some voice acting in swiftstylerX's submission to the Newgrounds Madness Day competition. If you've got time, watch it here. For those who don't know, swift is the winner of the Fan Art contest here on the forums, and I haven't forgotten to feature his work (along with including all entries from all competitors) in the Fanstuff section. Yesterday I sat down with my friend Jenna to practice recording for the Nat character from Racist Vampires! I'll be doing Percy's voice, and site-friend Andy Dennis will be playing JJ. I've also made some breakthroughs with backgrounds for the series, since I've been trying to develop something different than my traditional Blockhead approach. More on that soon. Ill have an Audio Update up here very soon :) My voice is gone so I couldn't really pull it off today.

		So What's Next?
		Posted by Swain on 17 Sep 2007
	What's next? WHAT'S NEXT? I'll TELL you what's next. I've gotta get myself a new computer very soon, because the fossil I'm using now can barely support Flash anymore. That's alright for now because I've been busy doing practice artwork here and here. I've been wrapping up a few other projects too, and those are mostly out of the way. Anyway, I've got a few more things to do until I can OFFICIALLY start Racist Vampires, not the least of which is to finalize a few style issues I've been dealing with and complete the storyboard. Unfortunately I developed a bach-ache from moving heavy furniture on my own for three days as I transitioned into my new house, so once that's cleared up, I can finish my concept work and get down to it! I'll keep track of the Racist Vampires production and share that with you all by the next update!
