Hi r00m! First of all, “Happy Fools like you day” Today (19.03) is birthday of first single of NEW album! Really great single! So… I’ve lost my main idea of post while speaking about FLM… A-a-! I’ve a suggestion. A lot of time has passed since last contest was in our community. We were painting anti-pirates posters, greeting cards… what about little banners? Skill of placing attractive advert on such small space…. I think that banner contest would be interesting event… and you?

Technical requirements of this picture: a hand, a paper, a pencil and artistic skills. But of course Photoshop and other Graphic programs would be also good. But the main question to author of the idea is what will we promote on these banners? FLM, YWLILUTT, Vacuum in general?

Now I feel my self a bit stupid. I’m running out of money on my i-net account, so I didn’t read Valenok’s topic about the talents… It’s interesting that the idea was almost the same… I’m not a specialist in banner-making craft, so I think that there could be few nominations in such contest according to banner’s size. 468x60 80x15 88x31 100x100 Perhaps, it shouldn’t be more then 10 kb. And it must be delighted to new album or vacuum-people.com… Well, that’s my point of view.

Thanks a lot! We're going to have a little celebration according to this date today.

Let's do it for any Vacuum official release. Animated or flat banners? They can not be compared

I agree with the God. Why limit ourselves with just the new album or this site?
I've also had a thought about doing a contest of making a cover for a future single... I completely realize that there could be no demands to make it any sort of official, but I think it would be fun... However, we do not know what the next single will be, but since it is not official, I suppose we could let us decide for ourselves...
Or it could be just some visual art related to Vacuum and their music - no matter, old or new... I know some people tend to have a sort of obsession about the new album (you know who you are ) - but I think that's really ok!
I have one more idea in my mind. It reminds of the covers thingy a bit, but this time I suggest something different. Why don't those of us who make music post here songs inspired by Vacuum? I don't think the concept of contest will do here, since there are certain technical requirements which really just a few of us can afford...
Any comments, ladies and gentlemen?

I think that’s a great idea ! I personally love your La Culture De La Nuit and would be great to hear more ! You have very beautiful voice , Satellite, do you sing in some band ?

Oh no, not at all... But I do have something more Vacuum-related and non-related. But there another issue arises: what's the criteria of Vacuum-relation? Again, I would like to hear people's thoughts about it.. And other people's music too...

Satellite, you cannot even imagine how I'm glad to here some new thing from you? I'm just waiting impatiently. I'd like to do something too - but my absence of experience and musical education makes it hard and too long. So, I'll try to do something even if you don't like this idea. In summer maybe.

Well, I think there shouldn’t be some strict restrictions on related/non related matter.
If Vacuum has liberty to change and include here and there a different kind of song (like Shallow Heart, in my opinion) then their fans should have that liberty, too but of course we should never misuse our liberty ( well,at least, not too much )
So, could it be a new section in Fans Area/Creation Department - Fans songs ?
I don't know whether it is too difficult for Nika to add such a new section
_______________________________________ Bring on the clouds Let the raindance begin
I agree, Satellite, that it's just a great idea about fans' songs department but as I know Nika now has serious problem with server so it won't be so easy for her now. But maybe someone will say some ideas about it? Maybe we'll organize whole site with free hosting. It will be devoted to Vacuum's fans creative activity. And it will be part of this site.

No, Masha, it's not so difficult I can make a department, where the fans will be able to add the links to their songs. But I agree: we should declare what is "Vacuum-related" stuff firstly. For example, if this is a remix of Vacuum song - ok, we have already got the rubric called "Fans remixes". If this is own song of Vacuum fan, should we add the song in any style or just in Vacuum style? (Discussion about Vacuum Music style is here).
