Kojima Haruna 22nd Birthday Project Name: Kojima Haruna Birthday: April 19, 1988 Deadline of Project: April 16, 2010 The finished product will be delivered personally to the staff at the Information Counter of the Akihabara48 theater on April 18, 2010. (sorry guys, no 2shots for this one like i used to do with my favorite member). Where to send your messages: Send all your messages to haruna.birthday.2010 (at) gmail.com or just PM me the pictures (if you're brave enough to upload them to some free image hosting site where other people might see them). Details of the Project: People who will be joining the project will be given a blank jpg file with dimensions 1063x738 pixels. This is half the size of a standard BLT picture at 300 pixels/inch. I want you guys to fill it up with your own special greeting for Haruna. You can do almost anything you want with the space give to you, but please bear in mind that the finished product will be half the size of a standard BLT picture (9cm x 6.25cm). (click here to download the message canvas) and if I may, I would strongly suggest to people who will be joining the project: please try your best to put something in there to prove you EXIST. I mean, messages with your picture on it, or a scan of your handwritten message, or probably a picture of your house, or a place in your country would be appreciated a lot more by the girls. You don't have to show your whole face if you don't want to. You can cover it with Haruna's PB, an issue of a magazine with Haruna inside, etc. hehe. Having said that, here are some more suggestions from me: a. b. c. d. e. a. Just the usual and normal greeting card. Add your face in for that extra spice it needs to make Haruna go "oh!" b. Show off your collection of AKB stuffs, or Haruna stuffs, or any 48 stuffs. Show Haruna how you support her even if you're not in Japan. c. Take a picture of a certain part of your country/town/city/house/bathroom/etc. Be in the picture if you're brave enough. d. Send a copy of your theater 2shots with Haruna (gegege), event 2shots, or pictures you took of her during events that allowed people to legally take pics using their own cameras. Pics from the NY concert would be awesome. e. Or just go wild. Show off your Photoshop/MSPaint/Excel/Notepad/ Ascii-Art skills. Rules: 1. No pornographic or indecent pictures allowed. Haruna is not yet in SDN, and besides, I don't think our project will get past the theater staff members if it contains even just one indecent picture. 2. No pictures of the AKB48/SKE48/SDN48 girls allowed. Aside from copyright issues, I don't think the girls will be happy to see that you scanned their pictures (or worse, downloaded from somewhere else). I know it's not a big deal, but let's just stay on the safe side. Exception to rule #2: picture that you took of the girl or with the girl using your own camera/phone/etc. This would include theater 2shots, the event 2shots, pictures you guys got of the her from their overseas concerts, etc. Infact, I strongly encourage people to use those so that she will remember who you are. Another exception to rule #2: a picture of you holding the photobook/dvd/magazine with the Haruna's picture on the cover. This can be considered showing your support to Haruna by buying her stuff, and thus is encouraged. 3. All messages should in English or in Japanese. I will be working full-time in the next few weeks, so if you want your message to be in Japanese so Haruna can understand, please ask the help of someone else to translate for you. 4. Write your name/nickname AND country somewhere on your message. I will be updating this first post for the status of this project. status (as of 2010/4/17 22:00): delerium - printed. jasey - printed. mr waffle - printed. ruru - printed. sn1pe - printed. tinyredman - printed. wordy - printed. bonkey - printed. andylim22 - printed. lordkyrie - printed. me (youko) - printed. total participants: 11 participants from stage48: 11 participants outside stage48: 0 status: given to the information counter. project concluded.
Re: [Special]Haruna Bday Project (Deadline 4/16) YEAH!!! I'll try to make one!! COOL PROJECT YUKO-SAN!!! [clap]
Re: [Special]Haruna Bday Project (Deadline 4/16) wow. it's a great idea. I'll go prepare the picture. btw can I send more than 1 picture? or just 1? and can I put my blog on it?
Re: [Special]Haruna Bday Project (Deadline 4/16) Guess a lot of ppl got Haruna Bonus photo for AX =.= almost everyone in S48 who ordered the DVD box set gotten one
Re: [Special]Haruna Bday Project (Deadline 4/16) darn!! I already have the picture, but I don't have the photoshop killer skills!! i just hope that my work will not be a mess
Re: [Special]Haruna Bday Project (Deadline 4/16) just 1 picture please. . and placing a screenshot of your blog would be a great idea, espcially if its haruna themed. -------------------- btw, i'm surprised that only a few have decided to join the project. i thought i was going to be overwhelmed with messages since this is haruna after all. i guess people are busy these days nyways, here are some more suggestions from me. made from "borrowed" images from the internet, and beginner skills in powerpoint. remember, not everything is dependent on high-end photo editing software like photoshop or gimp. sending a pic of yourself wearing a haruna shirt for example, would definitely beat any professionally photoshopped message any day of the week.
Re: [Special]Haruna Bday Project (Deadline 4/16) ok then. I'll try to send to the email as soon as possible. and I got trouble with the Japanese. Can you help me a bit? Spoiler 私はあなたはかなりの丸みを帯びた頬、美しい笑顔であなたの写真集にとどまることを願って もう一度おめでとうございます。 インドネシアではあなたの最大のファンからのご挨拶。 よろしくお願いいたします。 ruru、インドネシア Is this true? I'll try to say I want her to be more cheeky face like she used to be. This year, her face looked thin than last year on her PB.
