Winds of Change!

I'm really excited to announce two pieces of news for .{Rue}.! Drumroll please ....


#1: I have a partner!

My friend Themis Enzo has done me the honor of joining the brand .{Rue}. <3 She will be creating under the brand, and may even be bringing in some of her favorite Favole items! She'll be helping out a lot with the advertising too, so expect her name to be attached to blogposts, notecards, messages and the like. We also have some plans stewing of collaborations, which is pretty exciting. While she'll be managing a lot of the public face of .{Rue}., I do recommend for product questions and issues to contact the person who made the item (in other words, check the items' properties for the creator). It's not a big deal if you get the wrong person, as we'll pass the messages on to each other, but it will probably be faster for *you* if you contact the particular creator directly.

Anyway, Themis is awesome and I'm so very delighted to be working with her :D



#2: We have a new blogger request system!

It's pretty well explained if you click on that link up there, but the gist is this: Instead of keeping a list of bloggers, we'll be granting requests on a per item basis. There will be a limit of how many requests per item per year (we'll reset our records every New Years). Although we've given out things before, we're resetting everything starting now. That means any item, old or new, as long as it's available somewhere (and yes, the marketplace counts) can be requested. Because the limit per item is very small, unless you request a particular color, we'll be giving out the fatpack! There's more details, but I will leave that to those who are interested to investigate ;)

In addition, we'll be posting the links to blog posts featuring our items on a new page called "Featured" as an added thank you to all the people who show off our stuff. Top positions will of course be granted to those who've made requests and been accepted by us.


There will be other shifts and changes as Themis and I figure out our rhythm, and we'll keep you posted on anything significant.

Useful Disasters

Well. I have lost a huge amount of computer files for the second time. Included in this recent loss were all of my ad and product templates, as well as a lot of collected resources (both free and purchased). So, you know, that sucks. I am nothing if not fairly resilient, however. So, I'm going to use this opportunity to clean house, organize, and start from scratch. Which means a lot of behind the scenes work that will likely take a lot of time in which you will see nothing from me. But I am not giving up. So have no fear - I may be quiet, but I am not gone. It will also mean a few changes to my stuff, some of which probably doesn't matter that much to you, but I'm gonna tell you anyway because I'm weird and honest like that. So! The stuff that doesn't matter: New ads. And since I'm making a new template, I'm gonna redo all my old ads. Because I like visual consistency. New logo, probably. I'm probably going to stick with the same basic idea,...

Finally, something new and ... horny. ahem.

This is kind of a huge update, so bear with me! :) So, after reviewing my old House of Ruin horn textures, I decided they were unsatisfactory and set out to make better ones. It's taken me a while and a few failures, but AT LAST I have created a set of textures that I find lovely and satisfies my inner critic! Here are the standard color packs that every horn style will come in (click through on the pic to see them huge, up close and personal). Each has 10 different textures, and will be L$150 each, with the fatpack of 5 for L$375: In addition, I have 2 extra special packs .. 1.) One, especially for 7 Seas custom catches - 2.) and one especially for Moody Mondays (with an extra color :D) -   Ok, so, new textures, so what? Right? Well, of course I wouldn't let you in on the new textures if I didn't actually have something to put them ON. I've released 6 horn styles: a couple oldies, a could newies, one reworkedish, and one for FREE: Re-released House of Ruin styles ...
