Get out your calendar and start circling dates. It’s time to do a little webcomics planning.

With convention season upon us once again, I thought it would be a good idea to update an archive post detailing the luggage guidelines applied by American air carriers.

Part six in an ongoing critique of comics picked at random from participating members. As with before, if I re-write the punchline, I’m not necessarily trying to go funnier. I’m trying to demonstrate construction. I want to show how you re-assembling the logical steps along the progression of your comic can lead to a more polished punchline. It may not seem funnier for your sense of humor. But I’m confident that if you pay attention to the construction, you’ll be able to take away something that works for you.

Q.: I’ve been preparing for my summer con season, and one item I’ve been on the fence about is investing in a banner and stand. I’d love to have one, but I’m not sure the money and hassle of shipping one around is worthwhile for someone who’s still just starting with the whole con circuit.
Is this a silly concern, or might a banner be a waste right now when so few people would recognize the comic anyway?
The fact that my (and pretty much anyone’s) art is always evolving makes it doubly difficult to decide whether to buy one now, since I’ll probably hate the drawing in a year.
Just interested in your thoughts on the subject!

Last week, in a critique in which the use of traced photography was being discussed, a member said, in his defense:
Hmm…I didn’t think copyright would be so much of a concern. I got these images off various random google searches, after all.

I’ve gotten a few e-amils over the past few weeks from members who have been experiencing problems with the site.
There were some major (backend) updates pushed out this month. I’m told that one possible solution is to clear your browser cache, login and try again. If that doesn’t work, please help me track the problem.

Today’s post is brought to you completely by chance.
I was moving some old illustrations around in my studio, and I uncovered a bunch of illos that I had done for a project back when Evil Inc was just beginning.

Q.: I’m projecting I’ll reach 1 million unique visitors/month for the first time, which I’m obviously pretty happy about. However, I’m curious if this is something appropriate to celebrate, or even mention.
My natural instincts are telling me to keep my head down and quietly chug along. I don’t see a lot of upside to mentioning it publicly, other than maybe being taken a little more seriously by my peers, and even that is dubious.
The other problem is that this instinct is keeping me from seeking help where I need it. I want to ask people here what they would do with that level of traffic because I’m certain I’m not maximizing the business side of things, but at the same time I know there are a lot of authors on here getting numbers in the double-digits, and I don’t want to sound like a jerk.

I heard the teaser on the radio: “What happens to your Twitter account after you die?” And it made me think. There’s an awful lot of us that’s left lingering — digitally — after the Grand Finale. According to Mashable.com:
Just as Facebook allows users to request that an account be deleted or memorialized when a friend or loved one has passed on, Twitter users can get in touch with administrators at the company to either completely delete the account or obtain a permanent backup of the deceased user’s public tweets.
