If you have ANY QUESTIONS about the submission process or what types of comics are more likely to get through, this is a good place to start.  You can read this or just skip it and ask.

When you join the group you agree to a few conditions:

First, that you've read the rules of submission.  If you're unsure that you're comic will be accepted, go and check out which ones got through.  Does your comic fit into that kind of humor?  Is yours complete and legible?  Then we welcome your submission!  We do have a wide range of comics that make it through, from Family Friendly Cardboard Pieces to the downright offensive and politically incorrect.  As long as it's FUNNY.  That's all we're really looking for.

Things that generally don't get through are pencil sketches, doodles, comics with arrows having to explain what things are in the frame, or journal comics (the ones you make to explain your day, week, month, year).  But there have been exceptions.

Other things:

If you comic is voted down, better luck next time.  If you honestly think there was a mistake made, by all means bring it up to the group, but accept the final decision.  This is a voter driven group, anything can be submitted and voted on.  Please just accept the decision of the hive mind.  Remember that your comic still gets views at time of voting and even if it doesn't go in the gallery your efforts weren't wasted.

If your comic was voted down but no comments were made on it (constructive criticism, praise, etc.) please, don't resubmit.  It only makes us crazy and discussion starts going around the back rooms about banning people.  We don't want that.  We've never banned anyone and we really don't want to.

If you get upset and want to leave the group, please do so without trying to cause problems.  While most people can ignore stupid comments made by upset people, some people can't and we don't want a flame war started.  If something like this gets out of control, we'll just hide the comments in attempt to keep the peace.

Still have questions?

ASK AWAY
So the best Halloween comic this weekend in my opinion is my own

just kidding

its this one here

fav.me/d31ipuv

the joke comes through in one cell and in black and white... im a big fan of one-liners.  The only downside is someone not familiar with Freddy Kruger might not get it but i'm sure thats very few because he haunts all our dreams.


And im sorry I couldnt post the thumbnail, apparently you can only do that in a super group.  Maybe we should start looking into that.
My favorite holiday is almost here!  I encourage everyone to come up with Halloween themed comics this week not only because its the right thing to do, but because it will help you get noticed!  When people search on deviantart around the holidays, your stuff is more likely to get found if it is relevant.  On Sunday I will post the Halloween comic of the week here (from the accepted entries) of my choosing.
I don't believe I'm over stepping my bounds at all.  I made a suggestion to Bloppy as a comment to the last blog post that addresses concerns I've been seeing by members and contributors over the last few months.

He said he wasn't apposed to it.

Therefore, I went ahead and made a couple changes to the submission rules, but I'm not sure if they stuck or not.  (I don't know the limitations of my powers here, but I gave it a shot anyway.  If nothing stuck it's because my power is actually less than I thought.)

-Contributors can now submit their work without a required vote.
-The post limit for Contributors have been upped to 2 a day.
-Members can now submit their work WITH the required vote.

I hope this appeases the majority of everyone!
I'm considering some options here to garner some memberships and increase activity and make things a little more organized.  Also to get more viewers out there for submissions that make it through.  Some of the things I've considered are:

Removing the voting process for new contributors for now.
Creating folders for different "types" of comics, possibly allowing for drama or action comics to go in these sections.
Changing the "featured" gallery to only contain favorite comics that admins choose to move there from other sections.
increasing the allowable submissions per day.



Any suggestions to help improve the group?


*SPAM* Also, I just finished setting up a website for my comic, at blopnuts.com blopnuts.com, and theres plenty of ways to get updates on it via facebook or twitter, rss ect. so check it out!
