Thanks again, much appreciated

Hey cheers, very helpful. The KDP... you know if that's able to do colour as well? The Greko Printing looks good although I think maybe that doesn't make it 'available to buy' in the same way the KDP one does (looks like the Greko one just essentially gets you copies of the books to then sell yourse…

Hi - I get no traffic to my comic stuff, and anybody who does stumble there never returns because the comics are toilet, but I still want to publish something in a physical form and for download (say, a Kindle thing). Anybody got any advice on doing this, including what services to use etc? Cheers e…

Hey, late to this - do kinda like the Instagram interface

Here's my latest post. Am I, er, allowed to post stuff like this?

This is good - nicely swish. And yeah probably wise sorting that font

Depends! Not in terms of anybody reading it, but in terms of it now existing - absolutely! :smiley:

Yeah I think this is gonna be my approach from now on

Cheers folks. Yeah that's what I kinda figured. But I realised that it could mean if somebody had a comic that started poorly then got good later, potential readers might continue to be put off as they'd always be coming to the less good 'early stuff' when making their decision about whether to read…

Hey - something occurred to me, hopefully I can explain what I mean.. If you're discovering a 'daily gag' style comic on Tapas for the first time (i.e. not a comic with an ongoing narrative), where do you tend to start reading? I've realised that I still tend to zip all the way back to the start o…

Took me a long time to spot any differences :smiley: Think the bottom one is easier to read, but then you'll be able to squeeze more of the top one in. Both seem fine to me

Sounds almost like the dartitis thing, but for drawing

Well I did a direct comparison between the image when on Tapas and the image on my hard drive and the tapas one is definitely less crisp - but yeah maybe that's something to do with my laptop rather than anything Tapas is doing. If they look crisp to you guys that's good enough for me!

Excellent - thank you!

Ah well that's good to hear - maybe it's just my laptop! :smiley: The pictures are large and shrunk to fit the tapas sizing so I'd wondered if that had something to do with it, but glad to hear no problem when you're looking. Cheers for that!

Hi everybody - I looked at my Tapas page (https://tapas.io/series/Every-Day-at-8pm--Leaves/ep39) on a laptop yesterday and the image quality seems terrible, all blurry. But I think on a phone they look OK (I think!). The original images weren't blurry before they were uploaded so not sure if this i…

Hey thanks sorry didn't get a chance to check these later posted ones yet, will take a look later - thanks for sharing

Oops, forgot to link to my wotsit:

Done! I'll have a piece of that action :smiley:

Love the drawing style of Angry Tiger

Cheers, really like the first two there. Think I'm a sucker for things with animals in in general.

Nice one - particularly like FalseKnees.

So many suggestions! :smiley: Take me a while to try all these. Thanks!

And the phrase is stand alone gag comics, is it?

That's brilliant, thanks guys. I'll start looking over these - seems like a good variety of stuff here. Cheers!

Hey... just wondered if anybody could help with this.. It seems easiest on Tapas to find comics with running stories etc but I'd really like to find some stuff that's like individual pages with standalone 'gags'. I think that explains what I mean, but I'm not sure what the terminology is for that …

Thanks for that that's really helpful. I've taken a look and seems I already had those settings selected but I've turned on all notifications possible so maybe that'll work! Yeah I mean I've got a grand total of two subscribers I think so it's not something I'm missing notifications on often :smiley: .. b…

Oh really? So you can switch it on to receive notifications in the app if someone, say, subscribes? I'll try that.... Thanks

Ah! Crazy, right? Realised I can never find the 'wall' that messages sometimes appear on too, and also sometimes don't realise there's a private message for me. What a strange oversight, so cheers for at least stopping me hunting!

Hello! Am I missing something obvious or does the Tapas app not allow you to get notifications about activity (things like people hearting one of your pages etc)? At the moment I only see these if I go to the desktop site but I figured surely I'm missing something should be able to see this in the a…
