Just curious: Is there some sort of chatroom for Jackie's Fridge already set up, or if not is anyone else interested in doing that/know how to go about doing that? I had the idea from Mega Tokyo. They have an irc channel.

Okay, what the hell... I'll set up #jackiesfridge on Nightstar when I get home.

I don't think there is, unless someone set one up already--I know I haven't, since it all kinda' goes over my head anyway.

Because my keyboard's broken and I can't get to the underspace character. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/frown.gif">

Okay, channel #jackiesfridge has been created and registered on Nightstar!Quick tutorial on how to get to it:<LI>Download and install an IRC chat client. Good ones are mIRC for Windows, and ircle for Mac.
<LI>Make sure you're connected to the Internet, then open the IRC client program.
<LI>In the message window (called the null channel), type "/server irc.nightstar.net" (without quotes).
<LI>If this is the first time you are running the chat client, it will ask you for a username (nick). Give it one. Most people use their board names.
<LI>When it connects to the server, type "/join #jackiesfridge"
<LI>Proceed to have fun.Hope this helps, and that I didn't leave out anything. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/biggrin.gif">See you all there!

Well, irc.nightstar.net is where I usually hang out. There are a number of comics-specific channels there (I know, I helped set a lot of them up). We have #crfh, #avalon, #elflife, #webcomics (kinda dead lately), and #4toontellers. There are a few others, but I can't remember them off the top of my head.It's kinda become the official network of Keen, almost.Anyone who wants to participate, can go here to read a pretty nifty tutorial written by gwalla: <A HREF="http://www.keenspot.com/KeenBoard/Forum ... 00688.html" TARGET=_blank>http://www.keenspot.com/KeenBoard/Forum ... 88.html</A>
(gwalla's Quick and Dirty Guide to IRC)If anyone wants me to, I can set up a Jackie's Fridge channel. I know some have been hating comic-specific channels (Eight calls them brand name channels), but as long as a market exists for them...
