*current project is a self-publication that i hope to reprint via fantagraphics*
Ah, self publication!
Hehe, yes. You should have a chat with Dave Sim or Scott McLeod on that. They have some interesting thoughts :D
I have a friend who wrote them e-mail on the subject and they responded with mixed results. One said Self-publication is a dead end road, the other said it was the only way to go.
As far as i know, Fantagraphics is interested in compleat work and will publish anything of quality. One of my teachers is Ted Stern, he does Fuzz and Pluck for Fantagraphics. I also head Sturm, the guy who did Golem's Mighty swing. He was an awsome teacher! He was all about self publishing, but after pitching his story for Fantagraphics, they picked him up overnight. Now the guy is nominated for an Eisner.
Go figure.
Whatever...
Comix is a hard road to travel, a dieing industry overrun with stupif superheroes and bad art. I hope I am one of the lucky few to one day participate in it :D or at least, one of those brightly shining gems that crop up every once in a while.
Oh ya, Jeff Smith has some interesting thoughts on Self Publication too if I recall corectly. And don't forget Will Eisner!
Shit... This is one hell of a digression. Ok ok... enugh off subject crap.
This is worse than when Void stated talking about his army days.

Well, "Macman" I guess I really put the bug up your butt to get you so upset like that. I went to your website and all I can say is how many brain cells did it take to make it? Three? Four?

is that all you can say? can't you think of any other comments? you must take a long time to get together a whole opinion then! :D
quote:I know it must be difficult, but you need to understand it is you, not I, who has been hopelessly brainwashed by the Mac community, and you are clearly suffering from a severe case of psychosis induced by surrounding yourself in this devious environment.

Ho ho ho! i like a good laugh in the afternoon!
quote:You clearly haven't used Windows XP at all, or you would see as I do that it is a superb operating system and there is no comparison between it and the overpriced rubbish that you and your ilk endorse.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! This seriously caused me to laugh out loud!!! ha ha ha!!1 oh ho ho!! aah...
quote:Owning a Mac is akin to owning Nike shoes; you pay for a name and enjoy looking down on "mere" PC users.
--- End quote ---
Now this i actually agree with, EXCEPT, are Apple responsible for forced underpaid child labour? Are Nike? THAT is what is important. On the other hand, MacMan has recently amended his 'PC Users' stance to include only Microsoft users, why? i'll leave you to work it out.
Use a bit of paper if you have trouble.
quote:You are an idiot of impossible magnitude and therefore it is pointless for me to go on, as I doubt your meager brain will be able to assimilate what I have already stated.
--- End quote ---
Well, that's really convincing. I have got to the end of your rant and I am still waiting for the substance of what you have to say!
Why not post something with some information in it next time and give us all something to think about?
Good luck, maybe you could get a friend to help you.

I don't know what you are trying to point out with those links, Calum, but I compiled that code on my machine with VC++ and it did not crash windows, so I'm sorry to spoil your hardon like that. I can, however, give you something to enter on your Linux box. Why don't you type cat /dev/mem > /dev/mem?
After you do that, why not browse this web site with Konqueror?

And, while you're at it, have a small look at the bugs reported in Mozilla during the last 24 hours alone.

128 bugs in one day? Damn, I knew there were problems with Mozilla(which is a good reason why I wont ditch IE). That just verifies my faith in IE. ;P
(EDIT)That goes to show that there are alot of problems with Open Source software(probably more problems than Microsoft software)..the problems just aren't turned into worldwide news because Open Source software isn't popular enough to justify making a big deal out of the problems(EDIT)
