| Shill Post your website announcements here. Anything that is blatantly SPAM (nigerian schemes, make money fast, etc) will be deleted. Actually, we'd probably keep the nigerian schemes around to make fun of it. |

Gothic Holiday Greeting Cards!
Can't find any cards that reflect who you are at Hallmark or the 50% Off store? Of course you can't! Their cards are generic and usually suck. However, we have a solution for you.
Our debut Holiday '08 line is out now! They feature custom gothic, Edward Gorey-inspired artwork by Jesse Larson and are priced very competitively with the junk in the stores.
You can find them at Amalthea's Attic, a great gothic and alternative website. Look for 13th Floor Productions to see our line.

I have no idea what you're talking about. We're 13th Floor Productions and we make greeting cards, not t-shirts. Amalthea's Attic sells t-shirts from Gravestone Artwear products, with the company's permission.
The links you provided are for their t-shirts, not our cards. Our art is custom work from an artist. If you look at our cards, it's obvious that we didn't steal their images.
We're trying to provide the gothic community with products that reflect their style and that they can enjoy so please don't spread misinformation about us.

Hi there. I run the Attic. While I appreciate your posting links to my shop, I don't appreciate you saying that we support any kind of plagiarism.
Yes, we carry shirts from Gravestone Artwear, and are proud to do so. We also credit them in the manufacturers list. However, the poster was referring to a new line of greeting cards that we're carrying by 13th Floor Productions. These cards are in the style of Edward Gorey and are original illustrations by Jesse Larson. They bear little to no resemblance to the tee shirts to which you're referring.
You're more than welcome to continue posting links to our shop, but please, don't trash our hard working artists, or our shop. We don't appreciate it, and were you one of the independent artists that we support, or one of the shops we distribute for, including your beloved Gravestone Artwear, we're sure you wouldn't appreciate that either.
-Amalthea

You really should be more careful about spouting false accusations like that, some companies are willing to sue people who falsely accuse them of plagiarism.

Thank you so much for your support! I'm running a tiny, tiny little company here and I greatly appreciate any support that I can get. In tough times like this, help is awesome!

Not a problem, you were in the right and didn't deserve the attack

While I don't advocate the misuse of my cards, I guess if you buy them you can use them however you want. However, just be warned that the edges can be sharp, no matter how much lube you use, so if you really want to copulate with them, be careful.

Personally, I would love to get some of those greeting cards, but the festive season has already annihilated my bank account due to the gifts I had to buy everyone.
I really like what I've seen so far.

Thank you! I really appreciate that. Sorry to hear about your bank account; the holiday season is quite the hungry money-eater, isn't it.
I'm doing cards for Valentine's Day also, I'll post more info here, so watch Amalthea's Attic for those. Hopefully your bank account has crawled back out of the dark pit of poverty by then.

I'll be sure to set some money aside for a gothic valentine card. I'm sure my girlfriend will get a kick out of it!

OK, you understand why I had to respond. Listen, let's call a truce now, I can forgive you. I can also offer you an olive branch: I'm always looking for new artists to work with so if you're good with the visual arts, maybe we can work together. It's for pay, btw.

Rumor has it that you can still get your cards in time for the big holiday! From what I hear, you can order by the 21st with regular shipping and 22nd with express (in the US only) and get them in time. However, this is the holiday season so don't wait until the last minute!

*BUMP*
Because someone posted a stupid "OMG, BF problems!!" post in Shill. Mainly because she used "text speak" and that irritates the Hell out of me.
