@natalieglitters - I don't know what career you have. However, would you be willing to make comics for a living if you were paid to do so?
@natalieglitters - Why put ads on your website when Tapastic's CPM is higher and will be even higher in the future as we scale. The beauty of Tapastic is our ability to negotiate/bargain with advertisers. Even with 30% fees we take, our creators are already making 2-3x what you would get from Google Adsense.
@CyndiFoster - Yes, we've recognized that for some time. We've see hobbyists become careerist and vice versa already.
Yes, that should piss you off. Sex sells...unfortunately. However, people take digital comics for granted. The mindset needs to change and my opinion is that indie creator community needs to drive that change. If we want others to buy indie comics, we need to start buying indie comics. If we want others to support creators, then we need to start support indie creators.
