So, is using real names the new black?

Fri May 18, 2012, 3:57 AM


Just something I've noticed - my inbox is inundated lately with messages about people changing their handles here to their real names. Anyone else notice this? It seems to be mostly the pros and semi-pros, so I guess it has something to do with people wanting to be easy to find and using dA as a proper portfolio.

Sadly, my real name is so generic, I'm actually better off using "spacehamster" if people want to find me. Seriously, go on FB and see how many you find. On there, it's great because I don'twant to be found, but here... yeah. It's kind of made me think about doing it, though. Opinions? What do you use? Why?

Well to make it short: WATCH ON!

Awesome, thanks! :D

Good timing, too, you may have noticed that the last update was in late 2009, but now I'm finally working on the rest of the pages for issue 5, so those should be up soon-ish.

That's GREAT news! :w00t:
(Yes I noticed thus I had no high hopes but it seemed that you not totally dropped the project) ;)
hmm, should there be a comma or two?
I stay tuned!

I've got the next two pages penciled and right now I'm working on page 19. I'll probably post something or other in the way of an announcement on Drunkduck soon, but with the innumerable delays and blown deadlines I had during issue 5, I'm not making any fixed promises until I know I can keep them, so I'll probably wait until I've actually done everything and then start updating again.

I'm also working on the scripts for the next two issues, btw, so no, I've definitely not abandoned it, I just... went through a dry spell, I guess. ;)
