Tomopop soft-launches (Full launch coming next week!)
 by Colette Bennett on 02.01.2008      37 comments






The boys behind the scenes are working hard to make sure Tomopop looks it's best, but as you can see if you go to the page we still have some more work to do. I didn't want to be late on the launch date for everyone who has been waiting, but for now comments are disabled. They should be good to go after this weekend. Any feedback you have on what you think would be cool as a part of the final layout, now is the time to tell us!

<3

And now, unrelated pic.

Mmmm.... sexy soft-launch. That's classier than the hard-launches anyway. More airbrush work.

Omg @.@ Tomopop it will eat my soul! Now I'll have even less money thanks to the site. I swear it's a toss up between where all my money goes thanks to Dtoid, Japanator, and now Tomopop. XD Looks great though! I can't wait to see it when it's completely finished!

Am I the only one who thought that that dog’s paws looked kinda like a bat’s wings? Man, I’m messed up in the head.

Also, TOMOPOP!!! I’VE BEEN WAITING MY WHOLE LIFE, AND I DIDN’T EVEN KNOW IT!

Somebody needs to save that poor dog, it looks like it's trying to crawl out of some sort of zombie elephants mouth.

Oh yeah, and it's painfully cute.

2. The NES is my favorite system of all time, closely followed by the PS2.
3. My DS is more or less glued to my person.
4. I can't resist playing Contra. Ever.
5. I think modern vinyl toys are the best solution to not wanting to grow up.
6. I require pizza for living.
7. I dream about being submerged in a small pool of puppies.
8. I love wandering around used bookstores for hours.
9. I think about throwing rocks at people a lot.
10. I replay The Legend of Zelda about 5 times a year.
11. I drink your milkshake.
12. Chad Concelmo is my dream husband.







I can also be found at my home blog, BlowintheGameslot.com, and my new project outside the world of games,Colourlovers. That's where I write the snobby stuff.
