    Can someone please take this image and make the edges faded, so that it's not such a harsh transition on a red background? I just re-designed my site, and that is the only thing bothering me at the moment. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!! :D -Steve

    Motocross is my life. Seriously, I love it so much more than magic. It's what I eat, sleep, and breathe for. Here are some pics of me showing off...err, I mean riding. :P [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]

    Website - Constructive Criticism

    If you want to get booked for more shows, get a site completely dedicated to magic. Nothing else on there. Just magic. What kind of shows do you offer? Performance pics? Any place the public can catch your show? Letters of recommendation? Testimonials?? Surely you must know that you get out what...

    Hobbies and Personal Interests

    Motocross. Hands down. Nothing beats the adrenaline rush to lining up on the gate against 40 other racers, all gunning for the first turn. Magic is what I'm good at, but racing is what I love. And golf. I'm good at golfing too. :p

    One thing I'd like to see more magic DVD's do.

    1. I think if I'm shelling out $30 for a dvd, the least they should do is throw a couple of live performances on there. I don't think it's a gift, I think it should be mandatory. 2. If you're complaining about price per trick, buy a book and get more bang for you buck than you can imagine...

    Coffee Shops/Restaurant gigs

    Wow...Sinful07 (had the put the 07...the real Sinful is pretty cool). Dude, you just blew it. Here you had the opportunity to eat a nice big slice of humble pie, shut up, and realize that all your preconceived notions of what might be right about performing in a coffee shop, are in face pretty...

    Is the internet ruining Magic?

    Here's the thing... it's NOT damaging to magicians out there making their living from performing! At least not those that are any good. There are still thousands of pros out there performing day in and day out, booking gigs and doing shows. Whether Youtube exists or not, I don't think that would...

    Coffee Shops/Restaurant gigs

    Ok, I haven't read every post in it's entirety, so forgive me if I'm just rehashing the same **** that's been said. 1. You have to define your role at the coffee shop. Are you there to work, or there to perform? You can't be considered a pro and do both. That said, it's much harder to get...

    Yea, I do know that Thrallmind is really busy in his last semester at college right now. So that's probably one reason why he's been hard pressed for time. :)

    Dan Sperry : Masters of Illusion - Tonight - 9:00pm EST

    What's with that pulse stopping act?? Honestly, I've never gotten the point of them. Seems to me that a couple of stooges, a gimmicked machine, and some halfway decent acting skills and BAM! I have an act worthy of being on national television.... :rolleyes:

    A Brick of White Centurions on eBay

    This is just a temporary craze. Reminds me of when I sold 3 single decks of brown Wynns (3 separate auctions on eBay) and each deck fetched over $50. That paid for all the decks I bought, and then some! :D

    Help Me with a Show

    First and foremost, I'm a little concerned how you blow off the most important part of the show. The introduction. That sets the mood for the rest of the show, and helps get the audience on your side. If you get them to like you, that's half the battle and the show will go GREAT! Put some...

    Saturday Night Contest - Art of an Artist

    Ok, here's my attempt. Chris Kenner in a "jack-in-the-box"... Jonathan "baby face" Bayme, with a touch of Houdini in him. Of course, he's in a baby carrier. Only fitting, no?? Dana, the only balding T11 artist (soon to be followed by CK though) hiding behind the camera... And...
