Thanks bro! I didn't do the pin up girls, that was another artist we know. I'm behind the rest of the online graphics and sites. Wil is actually the product photographer.

Thanks heaps for spreading the word man, it helps alot. Kaz already boxed up Anne's set and I had no idea it was for her! She was just happy someone bought some lip gloss and eye shadow. Most have been flocking to the nail polish. I hope she likes them!

Thanks Blitz! It's not really stuff I'm into either, but it's scary how much I know after the last couple of weeks. Facebook Likes help heaps because they're viral. It's interesting seeing the graphs.

Guy tip- there's no shame in getting the missus to buy some of the lip gloss. Me and Wil were drooling over them while we were snapping the pics because they smell WAY too good! Morning Java and Forbidden Fruit are mind bending. Jersey Caramels and toffee apples...

I've been bailed up on the lounge with a buggered back over the weekend and was banned from going anywhere near a computer, so I sank a fair few hours into Minecraft on the 360 yesterday, finally.

I don't understand the complaints in world size. They're more than big enough and I had to set up camp at a bunch of places in order to travel the edges. They've also come up with some rather awesome world seeds with plenty of variety in them. It feels like there's alot more going on and the only thing removed is excessive hiking through useless territory.

The detail is as much underground as above it too. I'd already found a small cavern at the back of the Hiss Haven when I started digging, but I took it in a different direction and headed down until I cracked into another cavern that is FUCKING HUGE! Every time I think I've cleared out and lit up a tunnel, I realise there's two more I didn't see. I still haven't found an end to it, and it's loaded with goodies. I think I rolled up one of the best world seeds I've played on.

BTW, there is a free theme hidden in the game. Just hit pause, then hit Y to share your screenshot and you can stick it up on Facebook. Doing so unlocks the theme. That was the easy part. Finding out how to change your theme on this shitty fucking dashboard of ads is the hard part! :fist:

I prefer the controller. It's a pretty standard config.

I didn't mind the controller but I just couldn't get around that they didn't have the sprint/food/enchanting etc and made me feel as if I was playing a game that was incomplete.

Pretty stupid reasons, but that's that

Sorry to off topic again...

Hiss, Ann just got her loot. Packaging is great both the shipping and items.

Little things like the stick on the box and tissue paper make a huge difference.

She is excited about doing her nails later.

Good to hear! :) Geez, it took a while to get over there! The truck must have broken down on the Nullarbor or something!

We thought the little bits of extra effort would count for something and make us appear professional. Glad it's being noticed! Let us know what she thinks of them later. You know I'm always kee for feedback.

It really does make a difference. It make the items seem special and that the customer is appreciated, shows that your being looked after even after the money has changed hands.

Classy!

Many fans were disappointed when 4J Studios announced that a big fix update would be coming before the already announced 1.7.3 update for Minecraft (XBLA). That update is currently going through certification and affects the following areas:

Features:

Added an autosave, and the ability to turn autosave off, or set it from 15 minutes up to 2 hours in 15 minute steps.
Split the sensitivity controls into an in-game sensitivity and an in-menu sensitivity.
Added an Interface Opacity slider in the settings for plasma screen users.
Added a gamertag display in splitscreen, and the ability to enable/disable it in the settings.
Added an option in the settings menu to enable/disable in-game hints.
Added an option in the settings menu to enable/disable tooltips.
Added a co-ordinate display to the in-game map.
Added new sections in the How To Play on Multiplayer, Sharing Screenshots, and What’s New.
Added a warning message when attempting to place lava near the spawn area.

Fixes:

Fix for the leaderboard crash when toggling between filters/leaderboards.
Fix for server disconnect message appearing when offline or in leaderboards.
Fix for issue where posting a screenshot to Facebook caused a back out to the main menu.
Fix for clay generation.
Fix for ‘Awaiting Approval’ showing all the time on some signs.
Various crafting menu fixes.
Fix for being able to stand on sugarcane.
Fix for intermittent crash on saving.
Fix for duplication bug with the furnace and the dispenser.
Fix for not being able to place water near the spawn area.
Fix for intermittent problem on entering the Nether putting the player above the Nether world.
Fix for frame-rate drop around the edge of the world.
Fix for intermittent problem where some achievements were not being awarded.
Fix for graphical issue with stairs.
Fix for issue with enemies spawning inside a house when they shouldn’t.
Fix for Zombie Pigmen not being counted for leaderboard scores.

Now 1.7.3 which adds the following features is expected to release in early July, so fans still have awhile to wait.

Added pistons.
Fixed clay generation.
Flint and Steel or redstone is now required to trigger TNT.
Fences can be stacked.
Added Shears.
Redstone wire now will connect to a repeater.
Shears can be used to pick up leaf blocks.
Shears can be used to shear sheep without hurting them
Sheep no longer drop wool from being punched, only from being killed when they are unsheared.
New textures for Cobblestone and Brick blocks.
Silverfish skin was added (for Beta 1.8).

is it wrong to be amazed by that, not that they added skins or that it costs M$, but by the fact that they are NOT 160 M$ "each"

In a way, yes. There had to be a balance though. Obviously they couldn't have their closed network able to upload customs skins that no doubt would result in a whole heap of walking dicks, but changing your skin in a game so based on multi was necessary. So they design a shitload of their own skins which are pretty damn high quality, and sell them for cheap. Fair enough.

This is only pack one as well. There's apparently 5 of them when all is said and done.
