Re: How long did you wait to "pimp" your comic?
Waiting to have 20 pages up isn't all that bad. Chances are if you advertise or not, you're just plain not going to have any fans outside of people you already know within the first year. In fact, no matter how good your comic is, expect no one to read it until you've got a few years of archive. 20 ...

Re: Stiff artwork - need tips and tricks
If you aren't sure you're practicing the right thing, which is an entirely valid suspicion, then you may want to consider hitting the local community college for some art classes. The good thing about a community college is there's usually a guarantee of some one on one instruction, and as a result ...

Re: Red Slime: Special Comic Genesis Issue
I might as well throw my hat in the ring. If anyone likes the old crime genre they'd probably enjoy these three highly Noir inspired pages. http://www.antibunny.com/d/20080224.html http://www.antibunny.com/d/20080302.html http://www.antibunny.com/d/20080525.html The third in there isn't in sequence ...

Re: Digital vs. pen and paper -- a.k.a tools of the trade
Coming back from a con recently a fellow artist I met there who also uses ink recommended marker paper over bristol. A good marker paper supposedly will avoid bleed through just as well as bristol without the problem of sucking the brush dry as bristol does. If you like copics like me, you know that...

Re: Shoutbox Evilness.
Depending on your browser settings a shoutbox might eat your post and give you a message like "Cookies deleted." If you get that a lot just make a habit of copying your post before hitting submit, and put it in again if it gets eaten. It usually works on the second try.

Re: Adding music to a comic?
I agree. When music starts playing without the user's consent it's a good way to get them to dive for the X. If you want to do a multimedia presentation, then it's time to get into flash animation. Comics aren't what you're looking for.

Re: Stiff artwork - need tips and tricks
Warming up your wrist also helps. Any kind of exercise that involves looping motions of the wrist. It should reduce shakiness.

Re: Filtering out pencil in Photoshop
If you're using blue pencils, just skip the graphite altogether. Otherwise you can learn to lighten up (this will also help you get looser lines if your art is too stiff), and then the pencils will easily come out with a kneaded gum eraser. Really you should use a gum eraser anyway, it doesn't leave...

Re: How long did you wait to "pimp" your comic?
Well, It was in production for a year before I launched it. I was drawing Chapter 4 when the first page went up (which is also why the art gets drastically better in chapter 4). But yeah I was whoring it out on day 1 because I'd already been sitting on it for a year and it was driving me crazy.

Re: general or partial CG server outage? WANTED: server status
It's been 3 days now since I tried to update. It looks like the regular midnight updates are adding to the queue constantly as well. Can I suggest just emptying the queue entirely? The current list of tasks must be impossible to accomplish at this point, and I'm willing to bet a lot of those update ...

Re: Best part/Worst part
The fun part is probably the coloring. I enjoy working with brushes. The most annoying part are adding the speech balloons, which are just tedious and time consuming.

Re: April Search Strings Discussion
Try google analytics. It's free, and if you use a google homepage or Gmail already, you actually dont' even need to sign up, since it's linked to your google account. It's a good bit more thorough as well, though it makes you jump through a few more hoops to see your refers, and it's flash heavy.

Consider using something like this http://www.awesomestyles.com/tutorials/ ... -spam.html as a means of reducing spammer registrations. It's worked well on two boards I manage.

Re: How long are your chapters/seasons/volumes/whathaveyou?
The first chapter of AntiBunny was only 16 pages. Now the standard is almost 50. I gave up on limiting the page count a while back, and decided I'd just take as long to tell the story as it needed.

Re: SergeXIII wants to review your web comic
Thanks. That's pretty comprehensive there. And without undertones of "ZOMG FURRY KILL IT!" That I get sometimes. Much appreciated. Pacing I think is pretty weak early on, and I've been working on it to some degree, expanding chapters as I've progressed, but I'm also an impatient person and while I w...

Re: SergeXIII wants to review your web comic
Well I can always use feedback on AntiBunny especially the more recent stuff. Most of the reviews I get focus on the early work, which is fine for an outside reader, but doesn't tell me much in the here and now. The fact that a bunny version of your own avatar appears in it, hopefully won't cause an...
