Oi people - think before you click!Yesterday I got spammed to hell with messages linking to different variants of this image:
They can have slightly different graphics or contain different links but the message is always basically the same - go to this page and you'll receive 20 000

.
I have to ask the question - how dim do you have to be to fall for it?
Ok let's see - we have an image hosted on a profile that is 1 day old and asks you to visit a website with a strange url with a promise of a financial reward on an another website. How do you even imagine that would work? And now, of course, people start crying that their computers got infected with malware. Which is great - every genius who fell for this obvious phishing scam deserved it. I hope your shitty computer burns and you along with it.
I know this is a no-duh for 90% of people reading it but for the sake of the rest lets revise what we all should know about online phishig. And before you go all:
No, no you can't.

Wow okay you know whatSome of you people are rude as fuck commenting on my drawings.
Just because I'm gay doesn't make me fucking special, and anyone else. OH WOW YOU WANT A GAY FRIEND BECAUSE THEY ARE AWESOME.
Stop right fucking there.
Now re-read what you fucking write on my shit before posting and think of how much of an idiot you make yourself sound and how you think I would take it.
It's for one thing, rude, you're making gay people sound like they are just there for entertainment, and you think my journal is just for fanservice.
It's a journal comic, just so people can read my life, there are things I will show and some things I won't, that's the whole fucking point.
I'm happy to reply to all comments because my watchers give the time of their day to comment on my art, and I really love that, but don't be a little prick about it and think it's all about you. This comic is about me/my friends/my family and if you think they are just fucking there for your well being, you gotta take a good fucking look

Bronies go nuts, and Nintendo Sucks?Equestria Girls
The trailer to "Equestria Girls" (the humanized MLP spinoff film) finally was released today. Aaaannnd everyone's freaking out. Again.
You know, it actually looks pretty decent. Bronies... please understand: I know you're a major unexpected demographic for the show. I know you enjoy seeing shout-out's become canon within the show, and appreciate how the creators do little things here and there for you. But... the show isn't made for you. This is not Cartoon Network and the target demographic isn't 25 year olds in college. You're a nice addition to the target demographic of little girls, but you are not the driving force behind MLP.
I don't want this to sound mean, but it needs to be said. This is where it becomes very important to understand the fine line between being a fan of the show and thinking that because you've invested so much energy into the show that you're entitled to things.
I'm sure the movie won't be as bad as everyone makes it out to be. It honest

A question about ads...

by ~WillDrawForFood1, Feb 10, 2011, 4:22:58 PM
Journals / Personal

This is a screenshot of Pulp Culture's site stats from the last month. Typically, it gets around 50 hits a day, mainly because I advertise it in my banners on the forums I hang around on, and somebody will click the link and typically go thru the archive, which is pretty impressive, 4 years of work.

[link]

(The spike on the far right is an example of a random archive run. 229 hits.)

Anyway, I've been wondering if I should consider running ads on the site, but I'm not sure if the traffic is enough to bring in some revenue. Just something I've been pondering. Comment with any thoughts.

A question about ads...by ~WillDrawForFood1

Journals / Personal

*Bummerdude Apr 2, 2011

ProjectWonderful is something you can join, but at this current state, no advertiser will pay any money to host their ads unless it's free. Even people who have a thousand of hits each day become leeched like this. If the traffic picks up, however, more people wants to appear on your site and only then will PW fulfill its purpose: allow people to auction on your ad spot.

Your site layout could really improvements though. The template you're using is used on other comics, but when it comes to yours, it could simplier and have less gadgets on the comic pages (like the synopsis panel, for instance). And I probably mentioned this before, but make the strips smaller, both when it comes to the dimensions so that they don't stretch several screens, or plan the strip better with several lines in each panel so that you can decrease the number of panels you need. Much scrolling and punchlines that takes too long to build up makes the readers lose interest fast.

~WillDrawForFood1 Apr 2, 2011 Hobbyist Digital Artist

I had thought about something like that, but I guess if it's not worth it I won't bother. I've considered making a collection book, but I dunno if anyone would actually buy the thing.

Yeah, I know it's not perfect; I'm actually working on my own site for the comic at the moment. On that note, what website hosting would you recommend?

And I know my comics have gotten longer and longer, it's just a progression of my writing style. I might try to shorten them.

*Bummerdude Apr 2, 2011

I use smackjeeves, actually. Took one template, fixed it up to my liking, and then I got myself premium membership and bought my own domain. And then it only required knowledge about changing colors and knowing where to add images.

~WillDrawForFood1 Apr 2, 2011 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Hmmm, that sounds cool. I could try to apply what I've learned about HTML to customize mine as well.

~fire-camel Feb 10, 2011 Professional Filmographer

With only 50 hits per day it probably wouldn't get much money immediately. But it might be a good idea to put ads up anyway, just in case something of yours goes viral. That way you won't miss the initial rush and cash in big-time.

~WillDrawForFood1 Feb 10, 2011 Hobbyist Digital Artist

That's a good point... Hmmm.

~raHunterB Feb 10, 2011 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

Hmmmmm. I dunno. Maybe if it gets to 60 or 70. If it keeps the same pattern for a while though, then if you want some pocket moneys then sure.

~WillDrawForFood1 Feb 10, 2011 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Well, I would say the average is closer to 100, but then there are days with less than 20 here and there. So I dunno how much the average should really be.

~raHunterB Feb 10, 2011 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

Hmm. Maybe try the Google Ads thing that Serebii uses?

~WillDrawForFood1 Feb 10, 2011 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Bleah. I'd rather try Project Wonderful. They advertise other webcomics and stuff.
