NEWS (please read!)

bruisedoranges on July 7, 2008

Sorry again for the no-content update – revamps are well underway, and I want it to be a surprise and have all of it done before uploading it to the public. We're looking at a late July/early August release, when Bruised Oranges turns a year old. :) But I have some bad news – the site that I usually take commissions through has been down since the start of the month, and is purported to be down all throughout the month until near the end.

What this means for me is that I will have no income for this month if I don't do anything and I don't want to be sitting on my duff doing nothing all month (well besides working on the comic, but I want to be productive too ;b). So I'm doing sketches for donations, details and donation buttons are available here on my sketchblog: http://bruisedoranges.livejournal.com/18297.html

In summary: Everybody who donates will get a high-resolution wallpaper-sized picture of Arthur in the woods from page 27 as well as a sneak peek preview of the revamp. The person who donates the most by the end of the month will get a cameo in the comic as my way of saying “thank you,” and you can get personalized sketches of increasing detail mailed to you for donations over $5, $10, or $20. You have the option of donating via PayPal or Amazon Honor System.

Thank you very VERY much for reading, for your consideration, and for waiting. I promise you, the revamped pages will be very cool and totally worth the wait. :) They are SO much better than the old pages that it is unbelievable! And you will see why I'm taking so long on them, because I am adding in better details and things (like a close-up of what's inside Arthur's chest!). And chapter two is still going to start alongside the release of the revamps! There's a lot to look forward to at the end of the summer.
