| Some guy got sued for replicating GACKT's accessories for sale |
[January 7th, 2010 | 13.53] |
Just as information for everybody. Some guy got caught and sued for replicating GACKT's accessories.
Under the Unfair Competition Prevention Law, suspect 黒木康宏 (32) (Kuroki Kenkou) from Hiroshima, is sued for replicating the silver accessories that GACKT often wears (H.Darts) and selling them on the internet between 2008.12.12 to 2009.07.31. He has a partner in Aichi. They are charged with selling 4-piece sets of bracelets and rings at around 120,000yen. He admitted to the charge.
Losses are estimated around 10,000,000yen.
He has been caught before for replicating goods in May 2007.
Translated by me.

I don't think I should need to say this, but replicas are a definite no-no. Even those replicas of Onxy bracelets or powerstone bracelets are illegal. Just to remind all of you, please buy the original, if you can't afford it. Don't buy.
In case you don't know H.Darts website, here it is.

| PSP Help - Cropping characters? |

Hi guys. There's a certain type of icon I'd really like to make, But alas I really struggle with trying to cut and crop the image I want onto somewhere else, So fear the easiest way I've been attempting to do it is by deleting the background out and then doing it that way but it doesn't look particularly tidy when you do so.
I'm using PSP 8 And so far the cropping techniques on there I really haven't learned to use very well at all when I think I've got it I clearly haven't.
I'm hoping to make something similar to this -> http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x247/maxRISA/lj/franchette-yukiko01b.png made by franchette

A few days ago gackt_no_hime posted a link to her list of "You Know You Love Gackt Too Much When..." Someone mentioned having a copy of Anne Stuart's The Devil's Waltz on their shelf for the dedication alone. Being curious as to what this has to do with Gackt, I found the book at my local library.
The dedication reads as this:
For Gackt - the most delicious 450-year-old Norwegian vampire/Japanese rock star/Georgian rake alive today. Exquisitely beautiful, he's the best inspiration around.
Arigato, Gackt-san. I think I might have found a new fave author. ^-^
