Systems Going Down

2010-05-13T18:01:00.004-05:00

Uh...I don't know what's up, but I apparently can't pay my invoice (due tomorrow) for the hosting. Which means the whole site could go dead by Saturday. :P I'm gonna try and download all the stuff and see what I can do. I'm transferring my Just-Deserts.com domain to GoDaddy too since it also has "terminated" written on it in my account. Oh boy. You'll still see this page of course, its Blogger after all, but I think just about every image you see will disappear -_-

#731 Dig Dug Deeper

2010-03-24T11:34:00.004-05:00

Sorry for the late page, exams have been heavy the past weeks.
Anyway, another interesting problem has occurred with the site. Although I renewed my domain w/o problems, it looks like my hosting has run out as well. I talked to Crazy, he said he'd fix it, but once again I was left having to pay the month.

Now, I've found an incredibly cheap host that I can actually afford, and will most likely move the site over their once I'm done with class (in May). Problem is all the strips that are hotlinking here from the MyIS hosting might die (as the new host says I can't do "Image Hosting", which I assume is hotlinking). That's not such a bad thing, seeing as how I'd always wanted just-deserts.com to be the main site, not just a forward to the blogspot, but...moving 731+ strips isn't the easiest thing in the world (and I'd love to retain your lovely comments as well).

I'll see how things work out with that, I've been looking at Comicpress for the new site, hopefully I can find *something* to automate the move. We'll see.

#718 Seakill

2009-12-21T23:42:00.003-05:00

Ok, so I "recovered" my "forgotten" password for my MyIS account info and I can see that the hosting is set to unlimited, but the domain is still not paid for yet. :/ I'm gonna wait till midweek to see if Crazy pays it, if not, ask my sponsor to send the Paypal bucks so I can be safe. Another odd thing, is now the PHP on the site is broken. It's not noticeable right now since I'm using Blogger as the main site, but that also means if I ever wanted to full convert to fully using my hosting, I can't have one of em cool blogging systems (since they all use PHP) T_T. Oh well, I'll submit a ticket for that later. :P

#717 Ship Duties

2009-12-17T10:58:00.009-05:00

UH OH. Readers (all 3 of you) of Just Deserts, I really need your help! I've received e-mail about the just-deserts.com domain expiring on the 27th. :( For those who don't recall, Crrrazzzy donated this lovely domain/hosting to me, however unlike last year when I got the invoice notice of $0, looks like my free ride can be coming to an end as I'll need to put up $12 to keep it, oOtherwise...

I need $12. -_- I am broke in my Paypal, so if anyone would be so lovely as to throw me a buck or 2 (10 will get you a sig, and if you're generous enough to go for $15 I'll even draw you something more like this, if you want :P), I'd be most grateful! Also, if you know someone who can provide me hosting for free, that also might come in handy. (Just in case) ;P

EDIT: All right, got 2 possible donors for domain, we'll see if MyIS pays or if I'll have to use these wonderful peoples money. Feel free to order a sig or gimmie a Christmas present above with the Donate button anyway! ;P Thanks guys!

EDIT 2: Crrrazzzy answered, he says he's good with hosting it, will check on the domain thing, so things will most likely be OK. :) Yaaay

2009-08-23T23:59:00.002-05:00

I am not an ocean waves expert so...SHUT UP. :P I'll pretty much just add a speech bubble tomorrow. Maybe an extra panel or 2 (in my normal style. ;P)

WIP: #700 Part 6

2009-08-22T23:59:00.001-05:00

WIP: #700 Part 5

2009-08-21T23:55:00.001-05:00

What'd I tell ya? ;P Hair and background base. Aiming to have body nearly to completely finalized and perhaps start adding a few details in background.

WIP: #700 Part 4

2009-08-20T23:55:00.000-05:00

I'm gonna have to do some serious overtime over the weekend if I plan on finishing this by Monday! X-P Shading on body mostly done, as well as eyes, how's it look? (First time applying the paint techniques with this program). Next one should have hair done and background bases. The more I play with this SAI program, the more I like it. :P Has all the stuff I need!

WIP: #700 Part 3

2009-08-19T23:59:00.002-05:00

Hands, other stuff, and base colors.

WIP: #700 Part 2

2009-08-18T11:59:00.002-05:00

Ok, finished all the body, minus hands. Hands area always tricky. ;P

WIP: #700 Part 1

2009-08-17T23:45:00.004-05:00

Ok, this week is gonna be a little different. :P Homework has piled up so I need to spread the load out, but I finally reached #700 so I can't leave it to some crappy strip. So, what I'm gonna do is post everyday this week my progress for this #700 mini poster thingy, which I will post on Deviantart (and here) once complete. I want to make my best digital painting yet! :D So, Part 1, sketch and the start of line art! :P

2 of my classes are gonna be a breeze for me (Illustrator and Web Design) sooo I'm thinking this week I give the usual 3-4, and maybe next week start with a Tuesday and Thursday/Friday thing? With the latter one being a double strip/"page" that I do in pencil. Who knows, either way, I'm gonna try to keep the comic as active as I can. :P

Goodness, 2+ weeks without anything, my bad. The bad news is homework is piling up as we approach finals, good news is Just Deserts will be up and running with (hopefully daily) updates June 1, with perhaps some fillers strips the week before. Just hold out a little longer people, whoever you may be nowadays. In the mean time you can look at this "presentation" diagram thingy I used during an exposition and try to decipher it.
