Thanks for all the suggestions. We'll see if we can get more content up faster. I just finished penciling my next comic. Maybe if I work on making my comics faster, I might be able to get more up and change my sched from once a week to twice. My neph is being a stick in the mud about changing his comics though. Our third artist however will be trying to draw at least a preview pic for his comic, which he said he would start working on more consitently sometime in july or august

Btw, tickyhead, thanks for suggesting aceHTML. I looked into it and found it to be nearly identical to frontpage. Unfortunatly the space we currently have does not allow any external programs like acehtml. (offically it only allows either trellix or some other program that cost $50) However Trellix does allow webgems which I might use a bit more now by coding stuff before hand with ace then pasting the code later.

the main reason behind the new site thing is that we will be losing the current free host. My mom and I will be switching our isp from earthlink dialup to bellsouth dsl and earthlink allows free webspace as long as you are a member. Once we switch, I will have to delete the current site. So I'm looking for a new host now before the switch.

thegreyzone as one thing would be fine. I'll take a look at the aceHTML. I did read the rules but wasn't thinking straight when writing the first message. Sorry about the dumb post about the ftp. I did take a class during hs for frontpage though. We should have more content up soon. I will also see if my nephew can up his art skills a bit for his comic.

I am sorry though if I mislead anyone as far as what we would be doing. We will be doing our own webcomics, seperate from each other, but under the same site. We did agree to allow each other to borrow each other's characters from time to time, but other then that, they should all be in their own little worlds.

Username: I would like to get the name the grey zone like it says above and because it is the name of the current site.

E-mail: rasiel_draconis AT earthlink.net is the one I use but the other artists on the site have different emails. I will explain that later.

Current Website: www.thegreyzone.tk

Site Description: It is a home for my nephew, a freind of mine, and my own comics. We were all looking to try to make our own webcomics but, due to various reasons, couldn't individually. So after talking to each other, we merged together to make this site. I am the site admin and updater because I am the oldest out of the three of us. My nephew's comic is LOst minds, mine is Last Bus to Paradise, and my friend, who is now trying to deal with some personal schedualing problems, will be starting on Bankerville soon. The comics are as varied as the people who are making them.
My nephew is a fairly weird person who likes to make jokes out of the most idiotic or random things. Just take a look at his comic's archive to see his brand of stick figure insanity. The main reason he does stick figure like things is because he does not like how he draws with pencil and paper, mostly due to the fact that he has problems drawing elaborate character with any kind of repetition.
I like good and interesting storylines and recently became interested in the furry art. My inspiration comes from Amber who does with DMFA and also what David Hopkins does with his webcomic, Jack, (www.pholph.com). From those and a few other comics I read, I decided to try my hand at it and the result so far is now called Last Bus to Paradise. The plan I have for it is for each arc to revolve around a central character and his/her beliefs as they are chalenged is a couple of different ways. There may be a couple of times when previous characters will come up.
I do not know too much about bankerville yet except a few characters. My freind kept the story alive in his head and has yet to make a single comic. He claims to know everything about what he will do with them but I simply do not know at this time which way his comic will go.

Why should you host us?: We just want to put something out there that will hopefully entertain someone. I know that the website we are now with is working and is not very big but the host might go from free to something we may have to pay for. I just finished HS and will be starting college soon. My nephew is going into the 9th grade and my freind is entering his junior year. We all have no incoming cash but plan to apply for a paypal tipjar for the site soon.

I do have one question about the site. I understand that you use ftp to make the pages and, even though the current site is working fine, I don't know that much ftp, html or any other scripting languages. Is it possible for me to use an external editor like trellix or frontpage to make the site?
