Its 5 years now since the launch!! The comic is really amazing. I just crave for faster updates but you have a job 
And Best of Luck for The Monster Under My Bed. Hope it wins.
If there is a badges system, it would be more fun to let all users able to get them. Or else it would seems a bit too much like... competitive ranking system? For example, different badges for participation in a particular event - (es. March writer competition 2018; tipping event, Xmas collaborati…
Humour me The main character, Charlie is a very sassy and strong girl. Big Jo Definitely, although this comic is now in LINE Webtoons :/ Mine, Be Brave, is about a girl who overpass a case of bullying, does that count? XDD
We rolled out some updates to the Revenue tab and Balance details on the Creator Dashboard today, in order to reduce confusion and improve transparency. If you’re a creator enrolled in the Ad or Tipping revenue programs on Tapas, you’ll notice the changes the next time you check your balance. Wan…
Thanks! And go right ahead! : D Yeah TCAF is all comics related, so my little comic corner will become the focus instead! [image] The way I did it at another book-only convention was my fun experiment toward that... [image] It looks so dark but outdoor conventions are fickle with light…
I just learned that last night! Ahh when I don't post on a site, I'm so oblivious. shame
Thanks for the kind words, @Marvin! 
Over the course of about two weeks someome went through the first ten or so pages of West making snide comments about this and that, criticising the characters and hunting inconsistencies. I didn't mind at all, honestly, I just didn't understand why they kept coming back to something they clearly …
yeah, i agree that i should increase the contrast there - although I'm hoping it'll be clearer when put in the context of the rest of the pages. thank you and @digitalvalium1 for pointing that out to me. and i definitely think some action lines would help. varying angles is definitely somethin…
Well the comments coming from the author seem a bit passive-agressive in my opinion. I think if you are inconfortable with some comments your readers made, just tell them nicely, and if you have a lot of comments that makes you inconfortable, just make a small announcement saying that you're not ma…
Over 3,250,000 coins tipped with still over 5 hours left to go! Remember, for all coins tipped until 4PM (PST) you'll get 50% back as bonus coins on 3/28. Time to put the pedal to the metal. Since we already hit our goal and completely obliterated the 2.5 million mark, this will be the last upda…
I can't imagine why a creator would be rude to their readers, even in circumstances where the fans are being unruly. Just because others are acting poorly doesn't give you the right to. Though I think @Aspie_Gamer hit the nail it on the head with their comment, its not easy to deal with a rabid fa…
Look, I think it's a crappy thing to say "you're only popular because of your genre" and completely discount the work and skill that goes into the comic you make. I think most folks can see that attitude comes off as dismissive and jealous. But I think it's also not cool to go in the complete opp…
I've considered it and tried, but my descriptive writing is laughable (at least I think so).
Sometimes I do 😝 But I still put my phone sideways when I'm doing stuff like drawing.
Yeah! It's been interesting figuring that part out. An unexpected issue I ran into with my weekly raffle prizes to tippers was that I had no way of contacting only app users to let them know they won an art request. I could leave a message on their wall after trying to find their wall on the site, h…
I think you're totally right about not having to be a baker and whatnot, That's the same sort of approach I take when having my work critiqued. That said, I know that the way I criticize things tends to be very technical, and if I cant figure out why I think something is wrong, and more importantly …
Couple years ago I made two silly little rotoscope animations as a way to get used to drawing digitally. xD Definitely not the most beautiful of productions but I had fun with them. And it did turn out to be a great way to figure out how tablet works.
Maybe this thread is sputtering, but I just put this together for Monomania. Doesn't really show art but tries to give you an idea of what is going to be in the story in general. Let me know if anyone has any thoughts on it. Thanks!
You'd actually make more if your Aunt gives you the $20 through patreon or paypal or mail you the cash in a sweet holiday card. Honestly, the tipping feature works best for those that don't pay to get the Tapas coins and are willing to earn the coins through watching ads. Ex. for $100.00 in the …
Ok, let us try and keep this short. (Impossible) We do attend conventions, they are great. No they do not always increase online readers, and no they are not always profitable. HOWEVER, they are always fun. They are an excellent place to meet new people, find new readers, and even get feedback on …
I do conventions; I really love them! I primarily go to sell my books, but I also sell prints and take a few hand drawn commissions. Commissions are the only fanart I do. Giving books out for free seems like a bad/expensive idea unless they're literally like.... stapled zine samplers or something.…
Unnecessary red noses bother me. They stick out like a sore nose.
While it's good to reflect on your work (that's how you get better!), keep in mind that these are personal peeves, not universal rules. So don't sweat it too much! (:
oops. I say it that way and I type how I sound things out. I have writing problems. and I agree I like reading what comic pet peeves people have so I know what not to do. lol
Oooh. Hmm. I haven't had enough tea today yet, so the only one that comes to mind right now is this one: The corset-scene. You know the one - when Strong Independent Female Character (tm) protests against traditional feminity by refusing to wear this corset, mom! It's oh-so-hard-to-breathe-and-g…
It's likely a combination of you asking your fans to turn off adblock as well as counting the impressions from the comment section of the app. We serve a tiny ad unit there, although those ads payout very little. We are looking to improve that as well. Hope that clarifies things! Tipping and ad …
On an uninformative but amusing note, here's what I assume is a once-per-year phenomenon happening with the tip graph on this day, Jan 1st. [image] ...I can't be the only one who laughed at that brick of a graph.
I've gotten merch made with Zap Creatives (acrylic charms and stickers) and square buttons made with Awesome Merchandise! Here's what some of the charms look like: [image] [image] I've got them available at my Tictail store. I haven't got any good pictures of the square badges yet, but they…
