You may have noticed, the website has been upgraded and redesigned a little to make everything work. The archive appears to work for now, and there’s also a neat little random cartoon button. I still have some spacing tweeks to do for you IE users, (I hope there aren’t that many of you).
You’ll also notice that you can now get an avatar for your posts here and anywhere that uses gravatars. Neat eh?
To the right you’ll notice I’ve put up a donation button. It’s been a year and a half of free cartoons, and it’s been great. If you feel as I, and want to keep WTTF free and daily (yes, I’d like to return to seven days a week instead of five), leave a little tip.
Any amount you want.
If there’s an amount that can somehow signify an awkward innuendo that makes my wife uncomfortable, I would suggest donating that amount.
My virtual g-string is awaiting your virtual dollar bills.
ps- Those of you that would rather give me money in exchange for goods (not services), I will be starting to print t-shirts in a week (or two).
That’s my new machine, isn’t she a beauty? (It’s ok, I know my baby is ugly). What should I name her? Mildred? Bonnie? Blazin’ McPoseypants?
I’d like to thank my donors. I wasn’t sure anyone would actually throw money at me, and I’ve been pleasantly surprised. Now begins the return to my normal update schedule.
I have two new shirts entered in the weekly contest over at shirt.woot. Check out the designs below, and vote on them if you like them.
The graphics card in the new laptop got fried. I’m beginning to think I’m emitting some kind of electric field. I must now wait until Tuesday to start drawing WTTF style again. However, I’m working on a new Hoverpig so don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten about you.
This time I’m going to make the biggest buffer I can so if this happens again no one will notice, and maybe I can take a vacation.
I’ve been busy making designs for the new woot derby. This time the theme was “independence”. Here’s what I came up with:
You may not have noticed, but I was on vacation for a week. It started with a pleasant retreat into the middle of nowhere, and ended with DJ’ing an awesome wedding (my first ever).
Upon returning I was greeted with great news about the US economy, and my screen printing endeavors were still not ready. A tortured day ensued where I panicked about not having a job, and just about everything else an artist normally panics about (not enough time, good ideas, hand cramps, Bush is still president, ect). Then it hit me. Why not make some bare bones, punk rock, DIY t-shirts before we’re all stuck in a breadline?
Ladies and gentlemen I give you Bleachbot:
This week, the shirt.woot derby theme is “Emergency”. What could be more pressing than falling at maximum velocity toward the center of the earth with nothing but roses where a parachute is supposed to be?
Yeah, I’m not really sure where I get these ideas either.
Chaunt is a guy from London who writes a mean T-shirt review (meant in the good way). He has great taste in shirts, though lately it has been a bit questionable. If you’re a T-shirt aficionado definitely read his blog… and there’s boobies.
Due to the high demand, and unforeseen difficulty in producing bleachbot shirts I am forced to offer them for only one more day. One more torturous day of cutting stencils, washing shirts, and venting fumes. This means that on Wednesday the 23rd I will not continue to make bleachbot shirts.
Now is the time to get in any orders before it’s gone for good.
For people who have already ordered, your shirts will be shipped the following Thursday.
Thank you for your understanding while I iron out the kinks of creating a quality business that is both ethical, and sustainable. It’s not as easy as the commercials make it look.
In the coming weeks I have several screen printed shirts lined up so stay tuned!
