Hey world. Gabe here, and I've got some news. I just got done planning out the future for Clide & Leo and... let's just say, there's a whole lot planned for the series (in fact, too much planned at the moment that could get difficult with the story), but with so little time to spare for the ideas... so I've been given some pretty big opportunities recently and passing them up wouldn't get me much of anywhere with the ideas that I want to make for you guys. So, unfortunately, I'm going to have to postpone work and such detail on the series until I've got a decent number of things done and when I've done my part on other projects. I know that I may have been disappointing with my promises a lot of the time, but believe me, it's just gotta happen in the future... I'm sorry... However, we currently do have seasons planned and positions open, so if you're interested in taking any part of the series, than you can contact me by note or Skype messaging! I'm open for conversating!

I also wanted to let you guys know that I signed up for TOFA on June 23rd this year, which means that I'll be competing in an animation tournament facing several other animators in the next span of months, so wish me luck guys! ThePivotsXXD, if you've ever heard of that awesome faggot, recrutied me to the tournament, so if I've got anybody to thank for this lifechanging opportunity, it's him. You guys have also gotten me this far, so thank all of you so much... being known by people really brightens up my days every morning that I wake up because I keep the thought of my fans (no matter how many there are) and the fact that they root for me to go farther with my ideas on my mind on a daily basis. I am now spending a great portion of my life trying to entertain you guys and trying to update you dreamers about what I'm doing constantly because this is truthfully what I love to do... This is truthfully one thing in my life that actually brings joy and chance for a great future for me and you guys, so I don't know if I'd still be doing this if it weren't for your support. Thank you guys so much for the support, I would've never gotten here without you... Wish me tons of luck, guys, because I'm going to need it.

As for other projects, I'm actually getting one more voice actor for one of my projects at the moment and I'm actually, as far as I'm concerned, 75% done with another one of my smaller cartoon projects called "The Dinner Date" which I've already completed storyboarding and lip syncing to. That's the only spoiler I'm giving you, DON'T RUIN IT! I've also completed some CLIDE & LEO Newgrounds Custom Preloaders for any of you animators who want to give them a try! The link to download the zip file will be put right here: http://www.4shared.com/rar/EV7JALFF/Clide__Leo_P ack.html. There are several other projects that I'm working on also, but it would be bad to spoil these ones because of their opportunity holding concepts. However, I can tell you that I'm not the creator of one of the concepts, but I'm the animator of his silly little internet cartoon short! I help write, produce, and co-direct the toon, but the credit does not rightfully belong to me. The credit will go to it's rightful owner apon the video's release. Well, anyway, moving on now...

I may not be able to work on Clide & Leo at the moment, but, however, I'm still always open for commissions! I do wallpapers, T-Shirt designs, portraits, beyond ordinary portraits, coffee mugs, voice acting roles for specific characters if you need any help with some toons of yourselve's, Custom Newgrounds Preloaders, animation collabs or trades, art collabs or trades, musical composition, and anything else you want to hit me up with on DeviantART or Skype messaging. If anyone, and I mean anyone, wants to drop me a line for something you want of me, never feel hesitant to ask me about it. I'm always up for helping out a friend or fan of mine! Anytime is a good time to me! Just make sure that you don't drop any sudden bombs on me at the last minute, I hate that shit too much to even explain... Just drop me a line anytime and I might just be able to help you out whenever I get the time aside from projects! By the way, I'll do it free of charge... ^^

I would also like to inform all of you that there will be a period of time in July when I'm on vacation with my family to go to Laughlin, Nevada, which is pretty much on the border of Arizona and Nevada (my home state). I'll be camping for at least two weeks over there in these next following weeks, so I may not be online for a while when I'm there. However, I will jump straight to any business that I need to attend to as soon as we get back, so don't worry about any lack of completion for any requests, commissions, or project collabs! That, however, is all I can tell you at the moment, so I'm going to leave this little update off with a bang... Barel Demonthorn's story is currently 10% complete, but there is still much work to do on the storyline. Thanks again, guys, and I'll see you guys in the near future. Oh, and one more thing... watch out, because I'm going to spam all of your DeviantART inboxes with artwork... Sorry. Hope that you fellas had a roule happy Idependence Day, you rat scallions! I hope it was a great one for you guys!
