As I expected the Pop Under Advertisements annoyed of 70% of you.

They Annoyed 100% of me, so as of five minutes ago, they have been removed from the site. thanks to everyone who took the poll, emailed and left comments.

In other news, I am slightly behind today as it was my sisters wedding on Saturday (go Sis) and I was at AC/DC last night and as you can imagine my head and body is slightly fragile. I am going to try my best to get the new strip up today, but I cannot promise anything.

Either way back to full steam tomorrow.

Hey Guys,

I am trying some new Advertising on the site. It’s the dreaded pop-under Ads. Yea, I know, they can be so annoying BUT they pay about 8 times more than banner Ads and I need to start making some money from this site. Next week I’ll have the new store open so hopefully you will all support that.

I know alot of you don’t leave comments or feedback and I aprreciate your silent support but please if these ads are disturbing you please let me know before you stop reading.

Maybe I have all this wrong and you won’t even notice the ads. Most of you are out there in RSS land and so it won’t make a difference. I will be adding small ads to the RSS feed but I can’t imagine this will make any impact on your enjoyment.

I’m hooked, you should be too,

I have some free time over the next few months now that the Music School has closed for the summer, so I am available to do some work for hire. So if you always wanted to do a comic and need an artist, now is the time, need a band logo? I’m your man, Need an album cover done, you know who to talk to. In fact if you ever needed any artwork/design or writing done YOU NEED TO TALK TO ME.

I can work in most styles, I know you know my Road Crew Style the best but I have done other things, I have done lots of album covers/ logos for bands so I know what looks good.  let me know if you need samples or more details.

The First twenty strips or so where all done in pen and ink before I went to doing all the art digitally. I have decided to put these up for sale:

The strips were drawn on heavy A4 sized paper using India Ink, technical pens and most have some white out in places (’cos you know I am not perfect!). The original art, for the most part, does not have any of the lettering on them as I did all the word Balloons digitally. looks fabtastic framed!

Note: Reproduction rights are not included in the sale of original art

The cost of the original art page and print is $40 or 35 euro. Postage is 5 euro to Europe and is $10 for North America. Ask for postage costs to other countries.

PAYMENT

I accept paypal, check or postal/money order. Please email me with your paypal address and details of your order and I will send you a paypal bill for the correct amount. To pay by postal/money order or check, send me an email letting me know what you want and I will hold it for you until your money arrives.
