Lol yea ad you can sleep with it too! Lmao

Surprisingly they aren't hard to push at all. The only thing that's a little pain is turning it on and off I have to trim the edges up top around the power switch a little more but my mini scissors broke on me a few hours ago and kept me from doing that last little detail.

I was about to head out and did t have time for it finish saving as photoshop formatted file then get on chrome and go here and sign in and post and I wanted a friends opinion. He happened to be where I was heading do I snapped a pic real fast. Also i usually do not of my forum running on my iPhone. I almost never touch the computer unless it's to play games or backup my lsdj cart.

As for everyone else you do make points about the shameless promotion thing. Web address and so on. I was honestly thinking about putting that info on the back as to not put from the image on the front.

@bitman I love your template but I've actually made a pixel gameboy also. It was the very first design I actually had in mind for the shirt because I already had it made and it wodnt be that hard to edit, but then I realized it had been done before. I can't do a pixel gameboy for our shirt. Which is why i tried to do a gameboy but change it up a little.

Just now saw your speaker comment. And yea the speaker was my favorite part of it too. I thought it'd be cool to kinda have it fucked up looking like some shitty LA River graffiti. The first way i drew it was using a spray style brush and it looked like spray paint but it blended weird on the black background once I put it on a black background.

My advice for future reference having experienced this very issue before I knew much about the community, and yea some of it is repeating what others had said plus some possibly obvious tips.

1. Load the same version of LSDJ on both sides. This helps a ton indeed.

2. After you complete a song or get pretty for into it and you know you're going to take a break for awhile back it up to your computer. No matter what. And I highly suggest saving it to your hard drive D also to a flash drive just as back up in case your comp fucks up for any reason.

3. Carry a separate flash drive, or use the same one you use to back up your songs, that has the flashing program on it and your prefered version of LSDJ on it so even if you're away from your computer and at a friends house or something you can load it on theirs real fast and get your stuff back if anything happens to your cart while jamming at a friend house.

4. If you can get a cheap netbook, small lightweight, and usually run about 250$, that you can carry with you do you don't have to depend on a friends computer if away from the house. For emergency situations such as a file corrupt right before a show or something.

5. Invest into another USB EMS cart and once you back your .sav to your computer and flash drive throw it onto the extra cart. So if all else fails you have another cart that is in working order. Also very useful to do before you go play a gig. You'll have twin carts so if one fucks up you have a backup.

6. Last but not least. Every so often, after you back up your cart, completely whipe it clean of lsdj and load like tetris or Mario or whatever preferred game on it on both sides and play it for like 30 minutes. Then load lsdj back on both sides along with your save. I noticed that around the 7-14 track area, depending on length and complexity of your songs, ends up really confusing the EMS cart and will cause songs to become corrupt and not even load, and of they do load it'll load ???s or 00s or all phrases are the same like FF or 1A or some weird crap and if you hit start to play you'll just hear a single high pitch beep or a weird glitchy whistling beep sound for a second. May seem stupid but I noticed giving the cart a little break from lsdj helped solve this issue for me. I think it may be the fact that LSDJ is on both sides and since the cart can only take 1 .sav after saving so much as backing it up with the same thing per as over I think it tries to start duplicating itself and causes this issue. And to solve it you simply replace that file with something else completely different.

Might all seem a bit much but I had the issue 3 times before I was just sick of it as I started doing all this and its all saved my ass. Better safe than sorry right?

Note: when you load a game on it for a "break" like i mention in tip 6. Ive noticed it's best if you use a game that has save files like Zelda or Pokemon.

Hope this helps you out in anyway. And good luck man.

@9 heart.  Thanks man we appreciate it. Honestly I drew it out in about 15 minutes. Other bad thing is we are limited to one possibly two colors...for now. Any pointers to possibly help out?
