Comic Genesis Forums

I can't believe over a thousand people have visited my site but I have no fans whatsoever... if any of you people out there have read my obviously stupid comic can you tell me what I'm doing wrong so I can fix it before I kill myself...<P>It's the art isn't it? It's not good enough for you people??
Wah! the story sucks... or is it just Akira? Is it because her boobs aren't big enough for you pervs out there? <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/confused.gif"><P>I think I'm having a nervous breakdown.. <P>When I look at other peoples comics they always have great feedback but I don't have any... ('cept for you Eunice, you rule)<P>sorry for my whining but if ya didn't want to hear it ya shouldn't have read it.. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/frown.gif"><P>------------------

Girl, you should be happy you've had a thousand visits! Some comics out there have been around longer than you and STILL haven't reached that number yet!<P>I checked your site out, tho, and thought it was pretty amusing -- the art's pretty good, the jokes made me smile more than a few times (none of them were bad), and i'll keep reading for a while, to see what you're gonna think of next. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/biggrin.gif"><P>In terms of somthing to fix, I think you're doing fine so far; it's too soon to tell if something major is wrong with your idea or not. But I didn't detect a "story" yet, so to speak -- I thought that most of what you've done so far were one- or two- shot gag strips...<P>And yes, Eunice <I>does</I> rule. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/biggrin.gif"><P>------------------

Thank you so much for the feedback. I can't trust my friends feedback 'cause they'll lie and say everything I draw looks good <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/tongue.gif">
I'm sorry there isn't much story, (I'm actually on Act 2 of the actual comic (not tha chibi one) but we ran out of screen tones so I have to wait for them or improvise)
You really made me feel better, (I'm clinically depressed <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/frown.gif"> )
I'll be sure to check out your comic too. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/smile.gif"><P>------------------

Damnit <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/mad.gif">...<P>Your comic is pretty good. My only complaint is that it took me about 5-7 minutes to find the actual comic. Some of the Chibi stuff was funny, but i spent most of my time reading the actual comic. I think your art work is very good! I'm gonna have to go back and read more, I had to skip throught the last part cause I am pressed for time (past my bed time <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/wink.gif">). I wouldn't change a thing though, as far as the front page I might make that font a little bigger in the news section. Some pictures didn't show up, like when you go to the page to select either the comic or Act I. I think your comic is great though, reminds me of those catolog sized comics with the multicolored pages that my EX use to read alot <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/frown.gif"> I can't read japanese though so I never understood them. I'm kinda upset for 2 reasons though:<P>#1 Dr. Pepper RUUUUULES!!!!!!! I think your poll should reflect that.<P>#2 Every female comic artist I come across can draw better than me....<P>I hope you'll visit my comic once it's up I'll need 1000 hits too <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/wink.gif"><P><P>------------------

You are probably right... I guess all my fans could be shy or something. (Geez I'm just so paranoid tho.)<P>------------------

Thank you so much for the feedback. I will worship you people and your comics. (I really needed some feedback) Maybe someday I might get a fan (It'll prolly just be one of my friends tho <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/tongue.gif"> ) I'll be sure to check out your comic too.

What makes you so sure you have no fans? Because you have no fanmail?<P>Buddy, if you have 1000 visitors, I'm sure you have at least ten fans. You just won't know it until you get at least 100 fans, coz only 1% will tell you they're fans.<P>------------------

Seriously.... you won't get that much feedback from fans.<P>You CAN post bits on your front page asking for feedback and mail and whatnot, and that will help a bit. I think it took about 2 months before I got my first e-mail from somebody I didn't know about my strip. And I still don't get very many. ^_^<P>Keep up the comic (excellent drawing, BTW) and you'll get feedback. Slowly but surely your fanbase will grow until you have an evil army of FanBoys to do your nefarious bidding! MWUHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!<P> <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/smile.gif"><P><P>------------------

Our second biggest non-us referrer is Liberty University. I posted a thank you to them, but no one responded. I suspect whoever is reading PDI from there doesn't want their names known. <P>------------------
