ChrNo Remembrance Day...one year later :jphip:
On April 26, 2011 - one year ago today we lost a great HiPster in ChrNo to suicide (http://forum.jphip.com/index.php?topic=29192.0). The French girl whose puns, illustrations, song and positive attitude made JPH!P a fun place to be in, the void still stings but we shall take the pain into a lifelong tribute.

There was one most obvious way we could think of...
CALLING ALL JPHiP ARTISTS!
Let us design shirts based on the JPHiP emoticon mascot guy envisioned by ChrNo. For example, I took the smiley version (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v23/daigong/ChrNo/jump02.gif) and mosaic'd it like so:

and created this shirt:

with a ChrNo <3 text on the back. GET it at http://shop.jphip.com
GET CREATIVE!!
please note
- Only elements which are part of the final design should be included: All elements which should not appear in the design, such as backgrounds, should first be removed before submission.
- Save pixel designs as .jpg, .gif, .png, or .bmp
- Size of pixel designs: max. 10 MB and min. 200 dpi (buttons: 400 dpi)
- Pixel designs may not exceed 3000 x 3000 pixels
submit to daigong by PM or just post it here!!
All proceeds ($3.10 per shirt) will go to Mental Health Awareness charities based in France and worldwide: http://www.who.int/mental_health/en/ (http://www.who.int/mental_health/en/)
We won't skirt the issues. We accept people of all types of backgrounds and are treated the same way. Many of us still can't grasp nor understand how we lost ChrNo so let us bring forth awareness of Mental Health issues, as it remains relatively hidden from mainstream recognition and there is a lingering stigma that continues to pervade attitudes toward mental health.
We look to raise money in support of mental health as well as open up discussion about Mental Health.
She is at peace now, watching over us. Always remember you, mon amie.
LET'S SING DAT SONG!!

Man, I am so proud to display to you a contribution we got from Koei "Well. I'm not much of an artist but this is the best that I could do to honor ChrNo's memory. Since it's made to raise awareness for Mental Health Issues I chose the green color for the band since its the green ribbon that represents the MHI. All for the support of this issue that seems to be hidden to the world. We need to stand together and educate people on this matter. "
Fantastic design, got the real YEAAAAH! factor, ChrNo woulda loved this version :jphip:

I admit I was hoping for some more designs, and how to approach the topic properly cuz it ain't been easy. The news of Junior Seau gave me better perspective. Stay tuned. More sizes too.
SO PLEASE! ARTISTS! CREATIVE HiPSTAZ! IF YOU ROCK :hipheart: DROP A DESIGN!!
