Ok, it’s all over the internet so you hardly need to hear it from us, but as the Design is Kinky sites are hosted on US based servers we’d like to urge all American viewers to protest against the SOPA bill. Even little sites like ours that occasionally link to the odd Youtube clip could be affected which is beyond ridiculous. So please sign the petition to show your against the morons in the US congress trying to put this through. Info here – www.fightforthefuture.org/pipa

Just a little heads-up that we have a bit of an online garage sale for the 2011 Semi-Permanent books at the moment. Just $20/book + postage. Pretty good for a 200pg book full of awesome artwork. Click here to have a look.
