Strain42 introduced me to Drunk Duck when I found out about his Persona 3 FTW comic from GameFAQs message boards. Because of that I was inspired to make my own parody comic :D

I first read an El Cid comic when he was working under a different pseudonym at Renderotica - this would have been around 2005, I guess. When The Chief started moving around to different sites I just followed him, eventually coming here in 2009. At the time I thought it might be somewhere I could post a comic but it took me until May 2011 before I actually did the deed.

Personally Have been reading comics from DD since 2005 with Charby the Vampirate (good times). and even then this was a great community everyone is great and nobody trolls, more encouragement than bashing. For these reasons I joined DD and brought my webcomic with me.
LOVE YOU DRUNK DUCK!!!!

my reason for joining up to drunk duck is a bit complicated, you see I never really took intrest in forums or chatting and what not and I thought if I ever wanted to see a comic I would head on down to any local comic book store and purchase one. After some time though comics started taking a bigger role in my life and it dawned on me why not make my own, I mean there have been thousands before me with way more skill and talent, and this encouragesme to do the same if not better. I wanted to know what it felt like to create something so magnifiscent and amazing. So I decided to give it my best shot and no matter what happend I would be proud of whatever my creation became.

I want to make an adult comic, and I am not brave enough to take it to a convention. Plus I like being around other creative people.

After seeing Pit Face's PUTRID MEAT on DeviantART, I saw that she had a link to DD so after a bit of browsing (and procrastinating) I decided to join so I could share my comic with all you fine folks.

I decided to post on Drunk Duck because it's a free hosting service, there's lots of comic creators here, it allows you to customize your page quite a bit, and it has an awesome posting system that lets you upload a batch and then set a schedul for them to go up.

Huh, I thought I had posted here before. Must not have actually finished the post.
Hi there all! I joined DrunkDuck under the advice of a friend who told me it was a site with great freedom, author control, and..well, was free- and had a community. And I have been nothing but impressed ever since giving it a shot!

I head about this web site from the author of the web comic “Lena”. Thought I'd expand my audience.
Check out my comic: The Misadventures of Dexter the Alien

I joined The Duck because there are so few sites around that will actually let me post my work. However, after a few days here, I'm beginning to think it was a bad choice because nothing seems to work correctly, here. So far, none of the functions have functioned. Still, I'll be patient and see if things get fixed and working properly. If so I'll be happy. If not I'll move on.
By the way… I posted a help request earlier that seems to have mysteriously disappeared. Being of a rather suspicious bent of mind, I've bookmarked this page so I can return to it later, if it's still here.

I just joined yesterday. A couple big motivating factors:

I've heard dA is rather “hostile” towards sprite comics if the sprites aren't entirely yours.
I've been planning a comic for a long time coming, and now I've gotten around to start producing it.
The Duck was among a few recommended dedicated comic hosting sites by a friend.

I've been wondering a bit if The Duck is going through kind of a lull in activity as suggested by another thread I read, but it sounds as if activity levels will inevitably rebound. I figure, just to be able to share the comic and get at least one reader dedicated on following my unfolding plot would already make me feel accomplished inside.

Initially, my best friend in real life land sent me a link to Charby the Vampirate. After that, I started to browse the other comics on the site and ended up creating an account just to keep track of my favorites. That's how I got started.

I'm a Media Arts and Science student at IUPUI in Indiana in my final semester of school. For my final project, I'm doing a comic book. We have to present our capstone projects at the end of the semester and my professor reccomended I Alec (my character) her own website and also to get her in the social media world. This is one of the sites he mentioned!

I was introduced to this site, when it was Drunk Duck, by Hayakain and began posting my work here.
Welcome. I am JnG_Art. Project_00_Wolfen is my old name but I prefer this new one because it's more professional and shorter to say.

I joined here in 2001 cause I was 11 and this was the only comic hosting site I understood, the others were too complex. Simple as that.

I joined because when I was 9-ish I found this site and read Charby the Vampirate(much to the chagrin of my conservative christian mother. “You don't need to be reading anything on a site that has drunk in the title! I saw a page and it was really violent! It probably has bad language but I didn't check!” If she only knew.) and some other comic that had an almost all female cast and they all had really large breasts. I don't remember the name of it but it was some sort of acronym. I didn't want to be signed up to such an incriminating site, and this was back when I didn't have my own email for verifying purposes so I would have had to ask my mom to verify for me.
So, I left for a few years. Read other webcomics, made other friends. And then I realized I wanted to be a comic book artist when I grew up, and remembered this place existed. I signed up a few months ago and didn't really touch it(other that launching one comic and then later deleting it without even adding a single page because I realized it was awful). But now I'm back. Yay.

Welcome back. :)

Yeah, one of the side-effects of being in a webcomics community with so many talented artists is you tend to look at their stuff, then look at your own stuff and go: xO I pretty much just cling to the goal of making each page that tiny bit better than the one before (exception: page 3 which was rushed and bites -_-). I promised myself I wouldn't go back and remove or redraw stuff, because I want to be able to look back one day at how bad I was and realise how much I've improved since then.

P.S. I honestly don't remember how I first got here. I found some cool webcomic (Acrobat, maybe?) and stayed.

This place was recommended to me. I was told there's a good artist market on here, and helpful advice.

Hello, I'm Alpharie, and I joined because I have a story I want to tell. I also hoped this community has a little less BL than some other sites I've checked out. We'll see.
I'm pretty friendly in general, so don't be afraid to come check out my story. It's still in baby stages right now, so be gentle.

I've been wanting to really share my comics online a while now but I never had the experienc making websites and no mone to build a worthwhile one. Also I wanted to find a place that I could possibly build a real fan base. And I heard of The Duck a long time ago so I thought why not here? So finally I got enough courage to post my stuff. And I feel really good about it.
