Help! by Marco Knock

After the release of the site in May 2008, the gallery on thisissand.com has constantly expanded with sand images refining one after another towards technical and visual totality. We treasure every bit of your output from private love messages to artistic and political statements. However, the hosting costs are up over our ears and the three of us need your help to keep the sandbox online. If you like us, please make a PayPal donation!

Mountains of sand have been spotted on Le Corps Mince de Françoise’s MySpace profile. In addition to the up and coming pop outfit from Helsinki, our timeless favourite Creative Review featured thisissand.com among Johanna’s beautiful illustrations for ME magazine in their September 2008 issue.

A big thank you to Miltos Manetas for mentioning us on the Saatchi Gallery website as one of the highlights of 2008:

Two designers and a programmer (Lundberg, Sutela & Koro) made this digital mandala tool which is so close to art that if they will not agree to sell it to the Manetas Collection, I will simply appropriate it and put it up there as my own artwork. “A Thing of Beauty is a Joy Forever” – that is what distinguishes design from an artwork and this website is definitely “a Thing of Beauty”.

First of all, huge apologies for everybody trying to upload drawings without luck. We feel really bad for knowing how much time and effort many of you have put into drawing pieces, and then not been able to get them submitted for everyone to see.

We recently discovered that changes in the most recent Adobe Flash Player security model had broken our upload tool. So all of you who have updated to Flash Player 10, have not been able upload their drawings in thisissand.com. The matter has been fixed now, and if you reload (first clear browser cache) thisissand.com, you should be able to upload without problems.

Once again, apologies to everyone, and thank you for all the great feedback and wonderful drawings!

Best,

Timo / thisissand.com

As you might have noticed, we have updated our sand application, and it no longer has the bug/feature of being able to draw “on top of sand”. It wasn’t actually planned to be there, and it didn’t really fit the concept either, so we fixed it.

Some people were quick enough to use their creativity with it in many interesting ways, and thus we definitely want to keep those pieces in the gallery, even if we have a reason to believe that some of them were achieved with a little bit of help from programmable mouse pointer scripts…
