Thanks! However, Phil and another friend are reporting that they can't send mail *to* me as of the last day or so. Any ideas?

Okay, jumped all the hoops again, and re-re-registered for their feedback system yet again (which is supposed to warn me if complaints are raised.) In theory mail SHOULD start going back through to MS addresses now, though they said it could take several hours for changes to take effect.

Yeah, it's frustrating me too. It's not this server specifically, it's the whole subnet at my upstream host. I'm trying to get something done about it, but I've fought this like 10 times, and every time it gets fixed, the subnet ends up getting blocked again at some point.

I'm currently getting a message like this whenever I mail someone who uses a Hotmail account:

I guess we're on some spam blacklist?

My sincere apologies, the forums are supposed to email me when there's a reply to one of my comments, but I guess that broke. You're in, and I'll send you an email shortly with details.

I'm sorry I didn't see this until now. I'm pretty easy going about applications these days, but before I set up an account, I want to make sure you realize the services here are pretty low level. You get SSH/SFTP access and have to install things like wordpress or other web frameworks yourself. There's nothing point-n-click. Are you comfortable doing that?

Yes I am aware that I will have to do most of the Website creation myself but I really only see that as a learning experience so I am fine with doing an extra bit of work.

Applications / Coverta Hyenna

Last post by GrimnCoyote - July 29, 2019, 12:52:08 PM

Hi I'm a Artist from the wacky land of Michigan. I wanted to create something that I would have to do on a regular basis as I have found myself to procrastinate too much and wanted to change that. So I thought the best way to do that is though a comic strip because it would both challenge my art and writing skills plus I like making people laugh.

Username: GrimnCoyote (It's spelled with an N at the end instead of an M because poor literacy is kewl)

Email: grimnthecoyote@gmail.com

Site Description: The website I plan on making is simplistic with a section for the comic, character description, and hopefully a link to a Patreon.

Comic description: Coverta Hyena is about the life of Hyena in Chicago and all the strange stuff that happens to her. Whether that be her penny pinching boss making his workers lives harder, random apartment shenanigans, or a love struck movie star who can't seem to escape the friend zone. And all of that with bits of pop culture and goofiness sprinkled on top of a clueless protagonist.

Example of my work:
Here's some pages of the comic I want to put on this site
https://www.deviantart.com/grimncoyote/art/The-first-page-of-my-comic-strip-807345441
https://www.deviantart.com/grimncoyote/art/The-second-page-of-my-comic-strip-807345938

A drawing I did for a friend
https://www.deviantart.com/grimncoyote/art/Character-design-I-did-for-a-friend-807345103

Now I know what I have to show isn't much but that's what I want to change so I stop procrastinating or doubting my own art abilities and start posting art and comics regularly. I hope you enjoyed what I have to offer and I will be grateful if you allow me to host my comic on your site.

Is there some kind of reference that describes/explains the various species, races and other creatures seen so far (Sarladar, Rougi, Quelladar, Learim, Renid, demon, Tennin)?

Page 275, I could see Ember responding "eight?" with her upbringing (Flint). Though with her appetite for books she would have come across at least some reference to all the gods.
