I bought a shirt for a friend on my account.

Can he upload a photo on his account of him wearing it if I give him the order number and postcode?

I'm thinking of buying some t-shirts during this sale.

$15 x 2 shirts = $30, which is coming to about 17.9432 GBP according to today's exchange rate.

Anything over 18 GBP is liable for a UK Customs charge - it doesn't always happen, but it can, and it can be pretty hefty.

I'm thinking of putting through two orders, but I'm a bit nervous, cos all I need is for the bloody exchange rate to shift slightly and I'll get a pretty eyewatering charge.

What do you think?

U.S. man who prayed while daughter died convicted of homicide

A Wisconsin man who prayed instead of seeking medical care while his 11-year-old daughter died was found guilty Saturday of second-degree reckless homicide.

Dale Neumann, 47, was convicted in the 2003 death of his daughter, Madeline, from undiagnosed diabetes.

Prosecutors said the girl couldn't walk, talk, eat or speak. But instead of taking her to hospital, people surrounded her and prayed while she lay on the floor of the family's home in rural Weston, Wis. Someone called 911 when she stopped breathing.

Neumann's wife Leilani, 41, was convicted of the same charge in the spring and is scheduled for sentencing Oct. 6. Both face up to 25 years in prison.

Neumann, who once studied to be a Pentecostal minister, testified Thursday that he believed God would heal his daughter and he never expected her to die. God promises in the Bible to heal, he said.

"If I go to the doctor, I am putting the doctor before God," Neumann testified. "I am not believing what he said he would do."

Neumann said he thought Madeline had the flu or a fever, and several relatives and family friends testified they also didn't realize how sick she was.

Marathon County Assistant District Attorney LaMont Jacobson told jurors Friday that Neumann was "overwhelmed by pride" in his interpretation of the Bible and selfishly let Madeline die as a test of faith. Neumann knew he should have taken his daughter to a doctor and minimized her illness when speaking with investigators, Jacobson said.

Doctors testified that Madeline would have had a good chance of survival if she had received medical care, including insulin and fluids, before she stopped breathing.

The six-man, six-woman jury deliberated about 15 hours over two days before convicting Neumann.

This t-shirt made it to the Metro, which is London's free morning newspaper. There's a regular section highlighting internet oddities, and they did a feature on TKCM.

Got this off Boingboing today, and I'm giggling my way through the story.

It's a webcomic about a roleplaying game where the long-suffering DM is trying to run a Lord of the Rings campaign with some totally juvenile but superfunny PCs.

But I AM getting annoyed!

I want to submit this photo for the gallery. I've got the order number, I've got the postcode and I've got the email address. But it keeps saying "Uh oh, there's a small problem!"



A change from my standing-in-my-bedroom photos!

Since it's so permanent, I thought I'd get some opinions before I commited myself.

Is it better to use your real name, or an online handle?

I can't decide.

Kind of a sequel to the recently finished 'By The Light Of The Moon'. I drew them more or less the same time, but have only just got round to doing this one up as a sub.

Something - possibly a lot of things - is missing, but I don't know what. Help!
