Fanime was amazing but it totally left me sick for weeks 
after I got better, I went through the letters I got and found one that had nothing but $20 and a note describing one of my posters. It looked like someone made a mistake and accidentally gave me their money without getting a poster. I want to return that money so If it was you, please e-mail me at Yuumei.yan@gmail.com with your name and address.
Contest Info
That's right, photography contest time. With subscriptions as always! Thanks again to everyone that participated (entered, offered to feature the winners) in my previous contests! It's you guys that make these happen. 
I was originally going to make the theme macro again, but decided to change things up and go with...
People photography!
So, what am I looking for? People, a person, part of a person (that's right, an eye can count!), a profile, a silhouette- whatever you come up with, as long as there is something human in it. However, I don't want to see quick snapshots; I want to see something original, something that you put effort into: art. I want something that captures a feeling, a personality, a concept; or maybe just high fashion. Whatever it is, I want it to be your best.

Got a question that's kind of unrelated but still.
Not sure where to find the answer, so I'll just ask someone who should know I figure.
What kind of laws govern who can be a model, I'm thinking mainly in terms of age?
Most naked photography there are disclaimers saying all models are above 18.
Is this just some law regulating pictures regarding nudes or is it an encompassing law for any photos when it comes to art.
I.e is there any issues involved in using a younger than 18 model?
both 'regular' and 'nude' shoots, and what would be considered nude if that's special case?
This feels like a case where common sense might not really apply and also I just like knowing details even if it doesn't apply to me directly.
If you need details, just try searching it on google, you should have no trouble finding information.
"no implied nudity or sexuality"
Thank you anyway, it was as I figure.
I assume this is for america (which I assume this site falls under).
