One Thumb here...another month has passed, and I'm writing this right before
I take off for Washington DC.  Let's see...This month has been a busy one for
us, and I am glad to see it over with, and us still intact.  Well, let's cover
the basics...A few things happened, I guess I will just list them in the order
in which they happened...
First, we merged with another small group, Style...
They're President, Brain Dead, is now the head of our iLLUSiON East Coast
division...We're happy to welcome them into iLLUSiON, and are looking forward
to many great pieces of art from them...
Second, Shadowsorcerer announced that he will be moving...within a few
hectic days we had sorted things out, and the groups status had been salvaged.
At first, it just looked like was going to be moving...Thought this was tragic,
we all assumed that he would be back in the group after the move...Then a
bombshell hit, and all three of the BBS lines to his house were removed...He
called me up and told me about it...We talked awhile, and decided I would talk
to him over the phone about assignments...He's moving on July 6th, and should
be getting back into the scene and the group in not too long...We wish him the
best of luck, and are looking forward to his help...(One Thumb's Note:
Without Shadowsorcerer, this group wouldn't have come to be, I would like to
take the time to thank him now, in case something comes up and he's not able
to take as active a role in the group anymore...SS, thanks and keep up the
good work!)
Third, iLLUSiONet is now off the ground...It may not function correctly
while I am gone, but after that, it will run like a charm...There are numerous
messages bases, both pertaining to iLLUSiON, and general elite and h/p oriented
bases...Currently, all affiliated systems are in the net, and we will start
accepting non-affiliated systems soon.  iLLUSiONet will provide a way for
us to get art requests faster, affiliated boards faster, art faster, and get
new members as well.  It should start to rock soon, so look for it...
And, I guess that's about it...This month has been a really busy,
hectic month for me, haven't been able to draw any ANSi (as KillRaven pointed
out :), and have been involved in a lot of things this month.  But, the group
is alive, and bigger than ever...Now, I will turn the time over to our other
Senior member, VectoR...Take it away dood...

If you are interested in becoming a Distro, an HQ, an Artist, or a Courier,
please get in touch with One Thumb on any good net, or grab the pack and up
a completed app to one of our boards.  Thanks...

Ok.. VectoR here, One Thumb pretty much covered the news with
illusion.. except, since One Thumb, and ShadowSorcerer have been either
on vacation or temporarily gone, One Thumb and I have appointed Visionary
and High Density as temp. senior staff at illusion.  Also, there has been
some confusion as to who the new members of iLLUSiON are, due to the fact
that we merged very close to the end of the month, and with seniors going
on vacation, we havn't been able to locate all the members in New York,
but next month we'll have another list... Anyways, I'll just get to the
pack now.  But first, a few greets:

One Thumb      - Have fun on the vacation while
I work my but off! =]
BraiN DeaD     - Give me a ring lateron.....Who're the new
members?
ShadowSorcerer - Hope you're set up again soon, we need you =]
Soultaker      - Thanks for the D/S, call me later..
Lone Wanderer  - Good job getting the NET up
Yankman        - What's your new board number?
Vengeance      - How's PROfεCY coming along?
Phoenix Claw   - Sorry about not getting any work to your

Lone Wanderer  - What, are ALL the illusion members going
