There’s only one way to make anything this hot even HOTTER—a caption contest! Yes, a Digital Manga Yaoi Con original will launch this Wednesday (Aug. 29) with a big bang (no pun intended there)!

Beautify Yaoi-Con! Join the 2012 Art Show!
Here at Yaoi-Con we like to appreciate boy’s love in all its wondrous forms and mediums. Have a penchant for photography? Does oil painting get all your creative… juices flowing? If so, why not consider submitting an original art piece (fan art is totally acceptable) to the Art Show.
The Art Show allows for all amateurs and professionals to display and sell some select, eye-catching pieces of art to the general attendees of Yaoi-Con. Buyers come in all forms, some even saving up all year just to see what they can purchase in the Art Show.
This year the hanging fee is waived — that means you all can hang a piece for free and contribute to what we hope will be the biggest, most spectacular art show yet!
