That's right! Crystal is finally done with the layout, thanks to the help of Mercury's staff! The site is best seen in Firefox, but it works well enough in Internet Explorer too!
So what's new? Well, other than the look, Mercury now has the following features:
Now I'm still working out some of the kinks, but for the most part, Mercury is completely up and running! Check it out!

Mercury has a new affiliate, Phage Art Online. Basically my good friend Fredd is into the design business and loves art and all that (which is just what Mercury supports!) and designs all sorts of stuff such as t-shirts, logos, banners, and cds... Basically just about anything you can think of. Not only does he do this, but he's awesome at it. Here's how Fredd describes his work:
With all art, every piece is unique in itself and requires love and tender care to be produce... well... sometimes it does require some tough love.
Here's how he describes how he got started:
Well, I started Phage Art Online on MySpace as sort of a get-away from all the classical art I work around at school. It was me stepping out of the box. I had seen other people online offer services to bands and clothing companies before so when I started it, it was sort of just for fun... Just to see what it would blossom into... It wasn't ever anything completely serious, just to get to meet some different cool bands and make art.But people were seriously diggin' my stuff and then I got a little bit more serious. Some doors started to open, and I met some really great bands that were as serious as I was. The next thing you know, I was actually making good money off the site. By the way, the name phage comes from "microphage" which is basically a parasitic virus found in animals.
So really, be sure to check him out! And if you order something, tell him it was me who sent you, haha. =)
