C...

This happened quite a while ago, so maybe that's why he didn't say anything? Thanks for the welcomes, everyone. I shared the link here at the OSA forum; hopefully some more of us will come to visit. And of course everyone is always welcome there too!

Oh, how fun! We have something like this at the OSA every time a new album comes out; it's called "Nightwish Survivor" and fans vote for their favorite songs until we have only one at the very end. I think "Sleeping Sun" won the last time.

Thanks for the welcome, everyone. Yes, Adrian is famous! He even got a mention in his local newspaper when he won the contest. He shared the scans with us here, so you can take a look. The article is written in Polish so Adrian was nice enough to translate what it said. Enjoy!

Hi everyone! Some of you may or may not know me. My name is C. and I'm the webmistress over at Oceansouls of America. We're an independently-based Nightwish fan community and have been going strong for nearly 10 years. We are proud to call the Dream Emporium community our friends! Adrian has been a regular visitor to our site and forum for quite some time, but our two communities really started working together when Adrian won our "Enter the Scaretale" contest last summer. He designed our beautiful 2012 tour shirt; which was not only a hit among everyone at the OSA, but Adrian's amazing artwork was even praised by the band. I wish I could have been able to take a picture of the smiles on their faces (especially Troy's!) when I gave them these t-shirts for their very own! By the time the band got to Oklahoma City, Troy told our OSAers there that he had already worn his shirt during a "night out on the town"! I think it goes without saying that we are all very lucky to have a talent like Adrian's in our midst. I can't wait to see what your Dream Emporium shirts will look like someday! Thank you all for welcoming me here, as well as any of the other OSAers who wish to come here. Likewise, all of you are welcome to post at our message board anytime you like. We have always viewed our fellow Nightwish fans as members of the same extended family, so our home is your home as well! I look forward to spending more time here, getting to know all of you! Until next time...!
