Don't worry, I have made an effort not to gush too much and to keep it as encyclopaedic as possible.

Hope you like it

Awww. Thank you Layback11!!!

It did take a long time to compile, but not actually as long as I thought it would. Most of the stuff I put in it was from just a handfull of sources, so it was just a case of bringing it all together and sorting it out.

At the end of the day, she's worth it!

And I was actually glad of the distraction. I have been getting so frustrated with a project I have been working on over the past couple of months for another thread. It is so tedious, but I am determined to get all loose ends tied up by the time I go on holidays on Wednesday!

I just completed Nam Nguyen's Summer Fan Fest. He may be only 16, but there is a wealth of videos and print articles about him. Don't miss 10 year old Nam skating to the Bee Movie soundtrack! Too cute!

I have a question for the ballet mavens among us. Here, Maia's got it, Alex not so much, right? Or is this just the difference between a lady's pose and a man's?

Definitly Alex needs to work a little more :yes:. Obvious standing next to Maia who has the best posture and pose.

I have just finished the OP for Vanessa James and Morgan Ciprès, in the fan fest that daphenaxa started. I found lots of surprises, including Vanessa's first pairs performance, which was with another girl in 1998, and vids of Morgan and Vanessa as singles.

Next up, I just finished updating Han Yan's OP . There are a surprising amount of videos of his novice and early junior career!

http://www.goldenskate.com/forum/showthread.php?40199-Han-Yan

One thing- during the last season, his wiki says he had an exhibition number to Welcome to the Pleasuredome from Frankie Goes to aHollywood, choreographed by Kurt Browning. Do any of you have a link to him skating this number, or even know where he performed it?
