Congratulations on your 450 Facebook likes! The new look is awesome! Great work and thank you for the updates!
 
I don't know how I feel about the look. I have always been a stickler when it comes to the appearance of a website. As far as criticisms go, I believe that the banner itself looks a little disregarding to the actual-theme itself. There are times where less is more, and I do believe this would be one of them. I think you could do a simple logo and a "comic-book" inspired background and get more out of it. However, I do really like the background for where the text is, the white with slightly blackened outlines really makes the text look nice.

Also, while the navigation menu itself a little bland, and very "Weebly," I do believe that the content itself is laid out very nicely. Kudos! :cool:

And while I could post every single new web strip link, I'll simply post one link for all to check out and read at leisure: http://www.indiecomix.net/the-web-comics-channel.html

And as always, keep it Indy!
 
I am going to take a moment here and mention a very cool thing. Sure I could share a ton of links, but I'm not gonna do that. Next time I will though, anyways...

IndieComiX as of this June is now 2 years old! Whoo-hoo!
 
Congratulations! I feel like it has been a while since you've posted an update. :cool:

I recently bought ten issues worth of Hellraiser comics, the third season of Jericho (graphic novel), and V for Vendetta while I was at Comic Con. Read any of 'em?

Awesome and congratulations! :clap:
 
Much thanks y'all! And yeah it has been awhile, keep forgetting to do an update. And no, I can't say I have read any of those, wouldn't mind though!
 
*Loud, but jubilant fanfare is heard through out the lands of Off Topix* Hear ye hear ye! For its update time sirs and madams!

Currently on the Facebook page, we are at 496 likes! Just a few more to go til its at 500! So stop on by if you got a Facebook and give us a like! Let me know and I'll even like anything of yours in return!

Recently I've had to make some changes in the World of Indies section of the Reviews area, You can check that out when you're checking out all the awesome sauce content that there is to offer! Simply hover your mouse over Reviews so that the menu will drop down, then hover over World of Indies and you'll see several pages worth of content there to check out. This was primarily done to help reduce the length of the original page as all the content was beginning to slow things down when adding new things there. Still have a bit to go however on that, and will likely be implementing the same method on other areas of the site as time goes on.

Click here to see all the latest Make it or Break it editions. Interesting sidenote is that the writer has chosen to only cover trades/graphic novels. Which will make things easier for him with the format.

Of course there is always plenty of Web Comic content to see as well, so if you've been wanting to see what's going on with Joseph and his bunch, or with Mazscara, or if you like the bizarreness that is Chaos Grimm. Its all right there for you!

We also have a new column at IndieComiX titled WWDW. Which actually stands for What I Would Do With (insert Wrestler's name here). In which Lateef discusses potential storylines that could be done with a Wrestler, or perhaps something that should have been done. So far, Lateef only has one article up but he's currently working on another! http://www.indiecomix.net/what-i-would-do-with-kofi-kingston.html

Also a few weeks ago Derrick attended an event in Oklahoma known as A-Kon, take a look at his thoughts on that right here! Even includes a way awesome music video at the end!

And of course we have the interviews for those that like that sort of thing!

Well folks, that's all for now! And remember, keep it Indy!
 
Awesome update and thanks so much for sharing it! :dance:
 
Its time for a few updates! And while we've been plenty busy since the last time I was in this thread, I'm only gonna share some of the more recent additions to the site.

*Fanfare type music is heard*

Well folks it certainly has been awhile since the last update! And we've been quite busy since then too! However, I will only share the most recent happenings at the site as sharing everything since the last update would take a really long time. Also, I've gone with using ShareThis over having to manually add in a Like button and it has been fantastic in using it. Anywho... Enjoy!

From March 22nd came an excellent Double Edition featuring thoughts from Steven Leitman: http://www.indiecomix.net/double-edition---3222015.html

March 23rd saw Jesus looking for a bit of help against a Robot Invasion: http://www.indiecomix.net/double-edition---3222015.html

The 29th also saw a slew of bad ideas being given to Jesus on how to handle the robot issue: http://www.indiecomix.net/a-barrel-of-ideas.html

The 1st saw the return of the Hot Spot and everyone lost their Clucking Minds! http://www.indiecomix.net/lose-your-clucking-mind-with-chicken-outfit.html

Then on the 2nd, more clucking minds were lost as Ross continued his coverage by interviewing the guys behind Chicken Outfit: http://www.indiecomix.net/mind-meld-with-Nebulous-deagnon-and-kirby-stasyna.html Which the whole thing reminded me of a 3 part interview I once did a ways back.

The 5th saw Derrick bringing forth a new column known as Tales From The Screen. And the first edition featured the Starz series known as Spartacus! http://www.indiecomix.net/spartacus-the-series.html

The 7th saw Jesus getting the wonderful suggestion of using a miracle to get a plan going: http://www.indiecomix.net/why-not-a-miracle.html

We are also currently at 685 likes on our Facebook page. We likely would be beyond that number by now but Facebook had a purge of inactive accounts a week or two ago.
