			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Whew.  ACen is over for another year.  Hard to believe it went by so fast.  I am only now getting to my writeup on it, as I&#8217;ve been recovering from &#8220;con plague&#8221;. </p>
<p>I had a fantastic time despite a few hiccups (fire evacuation!), and it was wonderful seeing everyone.  We had a fair number of cosplayers (and just people wanting a souvenir) come by for their photo buttons.  Next year I promise we&#8217;ll have a good stock of colors for the decorative rings so no one misses out!</p>
<p>There was a great response and feedback for MahJong House as well.  Thank you to everyone who not only purchased it, but came by to give it a test drive.  Your feedback only makes it better!</p>
<p>Mitsuwa was awesome, I finally got to try the dim sum shop and had some steamed buns.  They were very tasty, and I can see why they are either busy or sold out when I&#8217;m there.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Thank you to everyone who came out to <a href="http://www.bgsu.edu/studentlife/organizations/anime/">Animarathon</a>!  </p>
<p>Now that the con circuit season is about to get in full swing here at Disjointed Images (<a href="http://www.acen.org">ACEN </a>in 29 days!) we&#8217;re focusing on what new designs to have on display.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve got some great ones already in the works, but as always, you&#8217;ll have to come find us to see them.</p>
<p>Past designs are always found on our <a href="http://www.disjointedimages.com/store/buttons">shop</a>. </p>
<p>We also now have HEARTS for the photo buttons in red and silver!  These work just like the colored rings, only in a heart shape (with an open center for the picture).</p>
<p>If you&#8217;ve got any requests or suggestions please post them in the comments, and we look forward to meeting you soon!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Phew &#8211; quite the time gap between posts. To quickly fill you in: we decided very last minute to throw together a WEDDING with no budget, little time, and a big dream.  That pretty much ate up any spare time we had.   It was however a lovely wedding, and everything went perfectly.</p>
<p>Not long after we came back from our honeymoon, it was time to get everything together for Youmacon.  It was a great weekend, lots of our fan/customers coming by to see the new designs, and a few new people too.  I got to draw a squirrel, a goat with a monocle, a wolf, and will forever be haunted by the epic man nipples.  (You had to be there&#8230;)</p>
<p>We had an even greater response to the current release of the game, which made me float with happiness.  Thank you to everyone who tried, commented, and (yay!) bought a copy!</p>
<p>As Chris mentioned, the next release will be Linux, and shortly after that we will start putting out some of the expanded rewards and tiles.</p>
<p>I am also oh so excited to announce that I have been accepted on staff for ACEN.  I will be assisting with both the website and Artist&#8217;s Alley.  This delights me to no end; as many of you know, I am a people pleaser, and to be part of the workings the make ACEN what it is for so many just really makes me smile.</p>
<p>Of course, this doesn&#8217;t give me any slack on keeping you guys entertained with more humorous buttons each year, and fret not, as I am hard at work with quite a few new designs.  </p>
<p>Please look for us next at Animarathon in Ohio.</p>
