Anyone interested in the exactly how the Muslim Jesus shirt was created should head on down to the October session of the LFPUG. We’ll be giving a talk about the system we wrote in Flash that created the illustration and about how we got exactly the right play between the image of Jesus and the Muslim crescents that create him.

OK, so we’ve just given the ’scoop’ on our launch to Zolton from www.lostateminor.com…… Well apart from having 99% of the same name as each other and him being an Aussie too, he also writes for coolhunting which is right up the very top of blogs we’d like to be on. So let’s wait a few days and see what happens…

As you’ve probably surmised, we’re a small friendly outfit trying to get by in this big cut-throat world…. Our premise is that the blogosphere will help us get our message out to the people we want to buy our shirts.
