WELL!! The contest is now over...I've been meaning to update the last 2 weeks...I've been hella busy...BUT YES!!! THANK YOU TO THOSE OF YOU WHO ENTERED!!!! ....Amber was supposed to be running this contest....>_>; but I haven't talked to her in almost a month....so yes....It's over!! I'll be putting up a voting page soon! ^_^

Just like all the other contests, send it to our club e-mail Just reminding all you older members, and somethign I needed to tell the newer members we have.

Also, The contest won't be over 'til after I (Zeph) get back from vacation O.o; Seeing as though Amber dun have access to the e-mail yet...Also, I'm going to list all the things the id will need to have to qualify:
You may use your artwork, but please be original about it...Please??? *pouts*
Do a collage if you want...I dun care really what the contest is...as long as it's no worse than "R" rated...lmao Yes! You heard me right!! You may use nakkie pics of His Holy-ness. lmao
The ID MUST contain Gackt...In some way, shape or form...We are the Church of Gackt...And no one else...lol
Make sure to have the Following Info:
Church of Gackt
Likes: (insert anything gackt related here, I'll leave that stuff up to you lmao)
Dislikes: Inactive members, anti-Gackt factions or (insert anything else here...just make sure it's appropriate please)
(insert your fav quote/small exerpt from a song, here)

Guidelines!!
Leave some space so that I can input member names please....
And make sure that the image is no wider than 300 pixels (or 3 inches) Because that way, it'll hopefully fit onto the front page...go with 200 pixels just to be safe.

That's pretty much it...I'm thinking about booting out some more inactive members by the end of the contest. That way I don't have to put up inactive members onto the listings....So, if you're getting this journal, and you haven't posted, noted or anything...You had better send us an e-mail or note explaining yourself if you wish not to get kicked out...There was one of you whom I gave a second chance...and you have failed us again...So if you're finding yourself in this situation more than once....Don't try to resubmit enrty...because you won't get it...I'm sorry if I sound like a complete and utter bitch about this...(please excuse the language) but this is one thing I can't stand....So if you KNOW you're gonna be an inactive member...withdraw, or don't note us trying to get in (if you happen to be a visitor). I'm really sorry to the members who are truely commited. They always have to read this kind of stuff from me. I really don't like them to have to read this in just about everyother journal entry...I'm really grateful to those members who comment and send notes...I look forward to them everytime I check messages...

ANYWAY!! Happy ID making for all! Enjoy yourselves! I look forward to seeing everyone's entries! D

Hi everyone. ^_^

I'm , and from now on, I'm here to give a helping hand around the Church. Cleaning the pews, dusting the alter, that sort of thing.

Ok, so, about me. I'm female, 18 years old, and live in Australia. I hate writing about myself ^_^. I have only been drawing for about a year, but I'm still working on it. I've only been into Jrock for about... 4 months, which is sad, but I'm downloading as fast as I can to catch up. Most of the art I draw formyself is dark and macarbe as hell, but I don't like to post it on DevArt because I think people might take it the wrong way (or I might get kicked off devart, some of it is very dark). My favourite meduim is pencil, but recently I've been neglecting that for a medium with le undo button. Aka Painter7. But I'm moving back to pencil again, I think I'll always favour it. (PS uploading Gackt portrait soon...^_^)

If anyone wants to contact me for any reason, feel free to message me on YM abstract_artistic, or MSN abstract_artistic@yahoo.com . Alright, now to the not-about-me stuff.

So, while I'm here to give a hand (without sounding like a dictator) there are a few things that we think would make the club better than it is currently.

The main thing that I think the Church is dying for is more active members. Eg... participating in polls, competitions, voting and so on and so on. We need more active members to make sure the Church continues to run smoothly.. But, we must not forget the flipside - There are some brilliant members, such as , who have done everything in their power to make this a beautiful place, all of who deserve marvelous kudos.

Second - We need more contests. Contests make the world go round (Well, not officially, but I'm sure there's a planet somewhere.......^^) So, and contest ideas etc, just comment/note and thus, with more contest ideas, wil come more contests. Note though, that not every contest idea will be upheld ^_^


Wow, that was too serious. But on the note of contests.....

We are holding a new contest!

The club needs an ID. It is dying for an ID. Thus... *drumroll!* It's an ID contest! The ID must have:
1 - Gackt in some form.
2 "Church-Of-Gackt"

And that's it. Now, go for it! Be as creative as you want!

I'm not sure when the contest will end, but we'll fill you in as soon as we know.

So, I'll see you all around the place sometime, and hope I can help make the Church the kind of place we all need - A place to worship Gackt.


*abstractartistic, over and out.


**Edit**

Drumroll please!!! *drums rolls* The winner of the "Sexy Anime Gackt Contest" IS!!!!








*waits some for anticipation* ....


*looks at my watch, waits a little more*

.....Ok....I think it's pretty obvious who won. *laughs some* ....Ahem....


Congratulations to ~abstractartistic!!! was the first to enter the contest. She entered her artwork piece within the first week of the contest. Her piece was really well done!! Awesome work!

Now...the prize of this contest, I decided that, since the rest of the ministry has kinda up and left me dry, I needed an assistant. Then I thought that maybe the winner of this contest could get the assistant ministry position. Help me out w/ the member lists, contests and such things....Now, you, the members...I ask you if you think this is fair and well deserved. If you oppose to this, please state your reason why and what you would do differently. I have thought long and hard about it. I have been in contact w/ AbArt (shortening it...I'm just being a little lazy since I'm at work atm...) I trust that she won't over run the club/church and kick me out and take over. I have talked to her a few times and feel that she is trust worthy.

That's pretty much it for the update for now....Once I get some feedback from you guys (the members) I'll inaugurate her!
