Since we just started the fire in our cold Tentacles HQ, make sure to help kindle the flame! A great way to help us is to check out:
and order the cool Tentacles Goodies available there!
Make sure you get one of the oversized Tentacles Group Photos (20x30 cm) for your empty, cold walls! Hey - look at those happy faces!
Another great item is the Tentacles Compilation CD! It is a browseable Photo-CD with pictures from Tentacles 2000-2004 + extra goodies!
While you there make sure to order our fund-raisers Ybot 4 & Ybot 5 as well!
~ N e w E d i t o r f o r Y b o t 6 ~
We are excited to announce that John Hughes himself is taking over the role as editor for our fund-raiser Ybot 6!
John will use his cutting-edge editing and layout skills to manufacture a veritable gem. O mother of beauty!
What am I talking about? Have a look at 'Moonrites' - his latest work for the Tribe.
More about this project soon....
Happy New Year!
Fabian
