Word. I don't care what you call it anymore. Just PLEASE pick something.

Fablespace
Furryspace
Scifispace
etc.

I still thing that's the best idea of the bunch. Whatever gets chosen here would simply be a solid platform to build from.

Ditto.

^ The multiple domain thing would be great IF it were even vaguley possible, but there would still need to be a central main name (where the forums would be at and all that). Either one in this poll would work. ...and incidentally, while I'm here:

Yeh - Comics, Toons, they're both well and good, but packaging one as the other doesn't work. Too abstract?

GRRR ARRGH.

*nods*

I don't really care about the name change, so long as we retain the free service and the community. I mean, I prefer "ComicGenesis", but if it ended up being Webcomicspace or even Toonspace ... who really cares? If someone is going to refrain from reading my comic just because of the domain name, I don't want them visiting my site anyway, as they'd probably fill up my tagboard with "leet" or complain incessantly about the lack of mansex.

Nope. Perfectly fine to me. Subtle and I got the point instantly.

Not really. But for some reason I kept seeing it as a potatoe in an orange skin and couldn't for the life of me figure out what it meant. :oops:

I'm considering switching from webcomics to Dada at this point. Call it Toonspace or ComicGenesis or Webcomicspace or Monkeyflinging or whatever the hell you feel like. Meanwhile, I'll be out throwing brightly colored bits of compost at passersby on the street while living in a hollowed out filing cabinet.

I vote comic genesis because it's so wonderfuly pretentious.

I personally prefer webcomicspace... and that's what I voted. But if we end up with comicgenesis or comicgen that's ok by me too.

LEGENDARY THREAD!

If someone planted a hydrogen bomb in my living room and threatened to detonate it if I refused to choose, I'd have to go with ComicGenesis.
