We've had a decent number of responses to our survey but not a tremendous amount, so I decided to leave the survey up for a couple more days. It will be open until the end of Tuesday, February 23rd.
The survey is here: http://goo.gl/forms/K6vgUqAjmD

Just to reiterate for those of you who missed the first newspost, this survey is to gather suggestions for bug fixes and new features on The Duck. This is being funded by our indiegogo campaign, which can be found here: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/drunk-duck-webcomics-improvement-drive

I would also love for everyone who is interested to take a look at the forum thread where I'm collecting every single bug and idea. Another survey will go up next week asking you to choose between these ideas, so it's a good idea to get some discussion going and think about what you think the site's priorities should be.
The thread is here: http://www.theduckwebcomics.com/forum/topic/177432/

Quackup Kickstarter
raytoons is currently running a Kickstarter campaign to fund a print version of his comic Quackup! The perks are great, with a print copy of the 25-page comic starting at $10!

I don't have any ideas to add, some of them mentioned are fantastic. I will def vote on the next one though

@meemjar: That is on the list of known bugs, and is definitely one of the more annoying ones. Thanks!

Here's another suggestion. When I want to upload ahead of time by predating the strips to days yet to come I see that they will upload on that specific day but the strips icon does not show up on the list of latest installments. Can this be fixed?

@cdmalcolm: I responded to your post in the thread just FYI. :)

I do have a rather simple request. Is it at all possible to make the duck web comics accept GIF files for pages? Some of us want to do sub animated pages like Comicfury allows.

@meemjar: iirc DD's stats have always been pageviews rather than unique visits. I'm not sure if there would be a way to prevent a user from being excluded from their own comic's stats...I kind of suspect not.

Do you have this solved? Once upon a time when I went to review my pages and to see if there was any comments I would then look at my status and to my delight I had a HUGE number of page reviews only to suspect with dismay that they may have been put there because I was reviewing my own pages to see the comments. Can it be fixed so that a person reviewing their own content will NOT end up going on the graph? Also there use to be a column showing you the most recent comments being made so you will know if comments were made. You could add that to the status to let people know that their work has been commented on as well as reviewed.
