Now, I seriously doubt this is the cover, because, well, it wasn't done by their new artist. But, none the less, here it is..
Hope you enjoy it! Flugigo signing off... [more]

Yup, unfortunately. Just found this at DBGTN.
Cartoon Network has screwed us again! New modifications to the Toonami schedule have been released, and Hot Wheels Highway 35 is taking the 6:30 slot on Fridays...so DBGT is probably out the window for several more months.Next in the news bin, is the Brolly DVD! Yes, it is released today. If you can't get out of the house today, order it from the DBZSC Store! Look for the link to the top right of the page.
Speaking of Brolly, most of you know he will be in the new Taiketsu game, but most do not know what he looks like in the game. Well, thanks to Thedude of the forums, we now know where to get some new screen shots! Why HERE of course! (Click on the August 25 updates to see the Brolly screens). I believe that is all the news i can give, so...Flugigo signing off... [more]

As you may have noticed, DBZSC suffered a BIG period of downtime. Reason stated below:
Our host's parent provider (NectarTECH) performed a server migration from their San Francisco (SFO) location to a new San Jose facility (SJC). During this migration, right when they were about to install the servers, a power outage occurred in the area. Generators failed, and elevators as were down, so they had to go through a troublesome process (basically using the stairs to transport the servers to the fifth floor); not to mention other technical issues appeared (problem with the routers and such).
In the end, over 2000 servers (including our host) were down for approximately 26 hours. Fun, isn't it? Anyway, everything is back online now and there shouldn't be any problems whatsoever. Sorry for the inconveniences. [more]

The phase 1 of the Video Awards is done. Over 40 music videos have been submitted and only 12 will move to the top. I will no longer accept any videos. I will start reviewing the videos and will announce the 12 people who have passed the preliminary matches on the 24th.
The competition will follow a day later, starting with 2 videos going against each other every 3 days. The winner of each round will be decided by a voting system.
Stay tuned for the results, here at DBZSC. [more]

I'm glad to report that the server transfer was completed. The forums will return shortly, when we make sure that the DNS changes have applied globally. Hopefully this was our last transfer, so there shouldn't me any more interruptions.
DBZSC Staff: Save your emails from the old server. Contact me ASAP for details.
UPDATE: The Dbzsc Forums are back online. [more]

This is just a reminder to the people who want to enter the 2003 Video Awards. Today is the last day which you can enter your videos. After today, the FTP will be closed and no more entries will be accepted. Please don't try to upload your videos at the last minute because you don't want to find yourself in a race against time.
On the other note, ever since I lost my hard drive, I have failed to recover two of my music videos: Sasuke's Fury and Hyperactive Ninjas. I would really appreciate it if someone would send these videos to me through AIM.
Here are some Release dates as well:
-DBZ Kid Buu DVD box set - 11:11:03
-Dragon Ball Commander Red box set - 11:11:03
-DBGT Calculations - 12:30:03
-DBGT Revelations - 12:30:03
As for "The Last Saiyan" there is small chance that it will be released this summer, but I am working hard on getting all my DBZ footage together so I can re-start the video.
Stay tuned for some information on the Live Action DBZ Movie, here at DBZSC. [more]

This month in Game Informer Magazine, there's a small article on Budokai 2. It told us that there indeed, will be fusions, not only the ones seen in the series, but new ones as well. So check it out if you get the chance!
Also, in forum news. STOP PESTERING US ABOUT IT! I don't mean to be rude, but jeez. On the forums it requests you have patience, but that hasn't stopped 12 emails and numerous AIM messages to me about it. They will be up ASAP. So have some patience, and for god's sake, keep your shirts on! [more]

As I promised, the music video awards are now resumed and the FTP is back up. You can now re-upload your videos back in. The deadline is still August 22nd so you have a week left. Remember to include a text file, notepad perhaps, with your video that has your nickname, AIM, email and your videos name. If I see your video but I don’t see a text file that has the same name as your video, then I will disqualify you immediately. Sending the info through email does not count either. [more]

As you all probably know by now, My computer was hacked and my hard drive was nearly destroyed couple of days ago. I managed to fix everything in my Pc and get it running and functioning again. However, I did loose everything i had on my hard drive including all my music and videos.
Althought I am back on my pc again, it will be a while before i can fully recover. It will take some time to get back some of stuff like my Dbz footage. "The Last Saiyan" is not likely to show up this summer and if I'm lucky i might get it done around December. As for the 2003 Music Video Awards, it will be resumed again on Friday August 15. My FTP will be up so you can re-upload your videos in.
One more thing, If you have emailed me in the past 7 days or so, you might want to re-send your emails beacuse I lost a lot of those as well.
That's it from me, remeber, one must fall....to rise again. [more]

Well, I sat down on my chair today as usual and started browsing some sections of DBZSC; only to find that the Music Videos' page looked ugly, and it was giving me a headache. Therefore, I decided to give it a little revamp to organize it better. Go check it out! [more]
Posted by XZ @ 10:47 PM EST [Link]
Hey!
Race Against Time has been uploaded and added to the music videos section! Not only that, a trailer for the last installment of the Dbz Trilogy, "The Last Saiyan" has been added as well.
As for the quality of Race Against Time, you'll have to understand that the dvd's for cell saga have not been completely released yet so this video's quality is not very high. The clips I used are from my old VHS's I had.
On other news, The Annual 2003 Music Video Awards will soon begin, prepare your videos and be ready to send them in one the contest begins. The winner will be able to feature their video here. We will keep you updates about this even as time passes on.
Well that's it from me today, Toon in again here at DBZSC for more great updates! [more]

Ever since the Broly section went up at the Official Dragonball Z Site there has been a section without content. That section was the Contest section, and now it has been updated. FUNimation is searching for the biggest DBZ fan it can find. If you think you might have what it takes, sign up at FUNimation Central and check the Contest section for full details. Good luck. [more]
