I have added a new help page and put all the other help/how to pages as a sub-page on that to make it easier to access them. I hope you find it useful.

I just thought I would tell you about this AMAZING site that you can get free iPods by only inviting people to that page!! You can get a 4 GB iPod Shuffle, 16 GB iPod nano, 160 GB iPod Classic and a 32 GB iPod Touch COMPLETELY free!

All you have to do is click the following link and invite 10-45 people to the link that it gives you. the more people you invite, the bigger your reward!

I haven’t posted here in like AGES! I’ve been really busy with school and all.

I haven’t been on Flipnote for a long time either. At halloween and Christmas I will go on it and post a few flips and update this website.

Seeya!

If you were wondering why the code didn’t appear on the contest page yesterday, it was because I couldn’t get to the computer because I was doing something. I will have a different contest in a few days!

Thanks!

Hello, Flipnote artists and fans. This is Aaron at Hatena in Kyoto, Japan
with this week’s news blog.

We really enjoyed all of the hard-boiled action and excitement in last week’s
“Egg” Flipnotes. Thanks to all of you who took part, and we hope that you
enjoyed the topic as much as we did. This week we are happy to present a brand
new topic where you can make some noise! Please scroll down for more
details.

For the next week many people in Japan will be enjoying Golden Week, which is several
days of national holidays in a row. For this reason we will not be posting the
Hatena Featured Artist next Wednesday (May 4). However, we will be back on
Friday with another edition of the news blog.
