Our PSPX3 Group has been around since 2006!

We are a group that loves to have fun in PSP and making friends along the way.

We have weekly Challenges and Activities. Our group is unique as when you complete a challenge or activity, you earn a Heart. When you have collected 10 hearts, you will receive a gift from one of the pay to use companies. 


Be aware that we are a copyright compliant group. So anything you create needs to have correct copyright on it.

If you join you are under no obligation to do all the challenges. We don't set time restraints.
