hmmmm...Looks like a complete ripoff of Scott McCloud's Understanding comics, only lazier!--heheh- The cool thing about a forum with question and answers is that anything can be asked--your not limited to the info displayed at a site. -- All the links at the tanline link are really great resources though. - The forum for Gravity will be more like a question answering forum for aspiring creators.-------------------

Evryone is invited to ask questions or just generally talk about the craft of creating comics at the <A HREF="http://www.keenspace.com/cgi-bin/ubb/fo ... LastLogin=" TARGET=_blank>GRAVITY</A> forums, here on the messageboards.- Feel free to ask about tools, techniques and the syndication questions. I can also have a few syndicated pros stop by to ask your questions and give you solid answers. The purpose of this forum is for up and coming strippers like yourself, to stop in for inspiration and good discussion about the craft. So stop on by, won't you?------------------

I was reffered to that same book by someone at Andrews Mcmeel publishing, and I enjoyed it immensely. It was evry encouraging and I still like to breeze through it whenever I need some inspiration.It was hard to find though, I had to order mine through Amazon.com.~Steve------------------

<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>Interestingly, though, I hadn't actually read UC when I started T4LBAnyway, I've made a new directory at the new site for the Lazy Buggers strips (there are 3 new ones that aren't at my old site), and will build it when my bookstore is finished.
So many web pages, so little time....
(Oh, and I've made some updates to the old site so it's easier to get to <A HREF="http://www.rocr.net" TARGET=_blank>www.rocr.net</A> from there).
