Greetings everyone,

I realize that no one likes spam in the newsgroups, but I just wanted to let everyone know about upstage.com, a new web site that caters to independent artists, entertainers, and other talented individuals.  We're not trying to sell you anything, I promise.  We're simply trying to build an online artistic/creative community comprised of visual artists, digital artists, performers (actors, dancers, etc), models, filmmakers, musicians, and writers. Upstage is a place where everyone can showcase their work, collaborate with other artists, get the latest news, and win the trip of a lifetime.  We think we're doing some great things, and we would like to invite you to join us.  

We're currently running a web-wide talent contest where 7 category winners will be determined by vote of their online peers. Whoever wins is going to Europe for 7 weeks with six of the other winners and an upstage.com film crew. The whole trip will be filmed and webcast, with the resulting movie to premiere at a variety of film festivals.  Check out our site at www.upstage.com and please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or comments.  I am at jpi...@upstage.com.  

Thanks, 

Joseph Picasso
