While I haven’t had much of a chance to work on the comic, I’ve been spending my time working on other parts of the site; namely the Comic Guide and FAQ pages. Neither page is complete but they both provide enough information for anyone venturing in for the first time, and are probably wondering what the comic is about and who the characters are.

I’m having some problems with Page 11, but instead of holding up the rest of the comic while I try to solve those problems, I’ve decided to take a rather novel approach and work on the other pages. Right now, I’m working on what will be either Page 12 or 13; depending on whether or not Page 11 extends into Page 12 or not, I’ll just call it Page 13, just to be on the safe side. All Page 13 consists of is changing materials to the new ones I’ve developed, I should say everything from Page 13 on will be nothing but material changes. It’ll be the same stuff that was posted last summer but just with the toon shaders added.

Now that I’ve gotten my PHP/Wordpress developer legs back, I’m going to start working on the Webcomic Publisher plug-in again. I’m looking for a beta release sometime next month. I think all I really had to do for the beta was finish up the documentation that is supposed to come with the plug-in.

That’s it for now. Keep an eye on the Comic Guide section, though. I’ll make a point to periodically update with new information; I’m actually thinking about switching that section over to a wiki; would make more sense that way, actually.

Well, I brought the comments back. I’m going to try it out on this new server. I also installed a captcha plugin to help with the spam.

I’ve started working on Page 11. I want to see if I can squeeze in two more pages, before I go back to school in the fall. The last few pages were done without an outline, since not a whole lot happens in them. The next page (or two), there is going to be some action so I’m going to have to write an outline to get a feel for what I want to happen.

In other news, I’ve launched a second website that is more along the lines of a person blog/collective-type site, called Dumpster-fairy.com. Its a tutorials site for Photoshop, and other programs and I’m hoping to feature some of my Poser techniques as well.
