Hard Lessons

Amelius on Oct. 22, 2007

Well, I owe 2 people some fan art not only because they beat me out finally in the top list, but because they have awesome comics (I just need to find time to work on these things!) but here is Pinky, who belongs to a really cool guy known as ozoneocean, and the comic Pinky belongs to is called
Pinky TA
Also I slipped in a guest spot for Xan from Villainy Minor ^_^

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT! I'm in dire need of money…well, maybe not DIRE per se, but Nick and I had planned to go to the Texas Wizard World convention, and suddenly money had been getting very tight between buying a place to live and all the wedding stuff and craziness…oy, but I hate to ask…so, I want to propose that I do something in return for meeting a goal (unless anyone has a great suggestion, please refer to the CTV forum if you do so it can be worked out) but my idea was this: If we get up to 500 before November 10 or so, I'll do a full week of daily updates of CTV, if there's miraculously any more than that, I'll do more… and if we get close enough, I'll do like half a week or something. This should keep me extremely busy! I would like to do commissions, but I haven't really got time for them…nor do I think of my work as worth much, which is why I feel pretty rotten asking like this too…so if anyone has suggestions what I should do to deserve it, let me know. I did make a few things to sell on Ebay (one of which is a pipe-cleaner Samrick and a good Oswego-Charby) but until I have pictures/figure out ebay it'll be a while for those. Anyway, if you think this is an OK idea, just tell me…I don't want anyone to feel guilty because they can't do anything to help out (I would never hold that against you! I'd be pretty awful if I did, y'know) but any little bit counts.


Also, another thing I'd like to add: if someone (like last update's comment) is being rude and ignorant and unhelpful, don't pay them the favor of visiting their comic to retaliate (or even see if they can back it up with better!)because that's just what they want, you're just another hit-count to them. There is no other good reason for someone like that to make hilariously idiotic comments bent on raising the ire of a comic's audience (especially if it is a large audience) other than to draw the attention to their own comic. Even if you're just taking a peek, this person will still benefit from your visit.
There's still a lot to be said for having good manners, even on the internet.

Also, I've changed the rating to T, though I'm not really for it and I typically like it as E because…well, I have my reasons let's just say, anyway, because I don't want to get trouble for the impending violence up ahead (especially if we get to the point of daily updates). I can't say I really agree with the rating descriptions, because this comic is far from an “M” rating, yet that and “adult” are the only 2 that mention violence (though CTV has more “gore” than “violence”) and as far as that goes, it's the only thing in CTV that could be considered “bad”.
