Are you artistic and waiting to show the world what characters you’ve come up with on your own? Luckily, Line app has just created a new option where you can create and upload your very own Line stickers to sell on the app.  you will need to submit a set of 42 different animated characters and upload to them and Line will review to make sure if your submission will meet the quality standards.

The Line is a free messaging application generally operated from Japan. Line users can able to make texts, images, video, and call.
Line stamp is similar to emoticons or Emoji for Facebook, Viber, Skype, and WEchat. line portray commonly known characters, from TV shows in Japan, to anime, movie and cartoon characters, Disney, and much more.

if you’re serious about creating your own Line Stickers you can join the Line Creators Market here if you already using the app you also have an automatic account there of course by logging in your registered mail address with your phone numbers.  another advantage of using this app is that they aren’t restricted by the age or experience for joining this program.

It doesn’t matter if you’re 8 years old or 100 years old if you have a talent or idea and you want to share on the program, go for it. Also, you don’t need to have an artistic background or even an art degree. All you have to do is enter in your own original drawing and wait to see if it takes off.

Just read their guideline very carefully and follow honestly, then there's nothing to worry about,  and before submitting your works (processing of review is very tough and long. so, review your work many times before submitting it, you can read their guidelines here).  and after many times reviewing your designs carefully, submit your works to them, and wait for the their approval by the processing of review takes a 4 months before but just this year, it takes just a months and they inform you if your designs were approved.  I try to submit my  design to them using online photoshop, but unfortunately, for lack of techniques about it, I've got rejected, for lack of clear ownership of my works (read here).

by the way, lots of people in Japan now making lots of money just by selling stamp for a line. just avoid illustrating something. A total 42 images must be uploaded in a png format—one main 240-by-240-pixel image, one 96-by-74-pixel chat room tab image, and the 40 370-by-320-pixel stickers. goodluck..

Dropped your phone in the toilet bowl? oopppsss...  or accidentally slip it on the pool? don't panic... just follow this easy steps to bring back the life of your smartphone.



1. retrieve your handset from the water right away. a prolonged plunge will  increase the risk of damage.

2. resist the urge to check if its still works or press any buttons, since putting pressure on the keys could shift liquid further into the device.

3. in all cases, the best way to do is immediately pull out the battery, thus minimizing power to the device that it may cause to short circuit.

4. if you own a handset with a non-replaceable battery like iPhone, then pulling the battery is not an option, you have to risk pressing the few buttons to check if its till on and swiftly turn it off if it is.

5. remove any peripherals and attachment on your phone, such as cover.

6.  extract the sim card or any sd cards if it carries, leaving ports or covers om your handset open to aid ventilation.

7. dry off everything with a towel. including the exterior of your handset.

8. even when everything is dry, it's very likely there's latent moisture within the device that you want to get out before turning it on. the most off reported fix for a soaked phone is to bury the handset in a bowl of dry rice. desiccant materials such as rice, because it has a property to absorbed moisture.

9. use silica gel packs if you don't have any of that material around but rice doing it well.


10. when you're confident it is dried out, put the battery and try switching it on.
