Encroaching Hiatus.....

I'm not sure how many of you read this section of the site on any kind of basis.... but for those of you who do:
I'm here to inform you of DitLoaCs upcoming hiatus. After chapter two comes to a close, and after the week long colour updates, I'll be putting DitLoaC on a hiatus of indeterminate length...... it's likely going to be very long.
I've done a few pages into chapter three, but deemed it better to leave it on a chapter ending then in the beginning of a new chapter. It's just not nice.
I hope to pick this up soon, but that'll only happen if I get the job I'm currently aiming for. But I digress.
I wanted to apologize to all of those who read DitLoaC for this abrupt end, and also to thank those who've read the comic as it came about. It has been a joy and a pleasure to work on it, and I sincerely hope this is only temporary.
If anyone would like to be emailed if DitLoaC starts back up again please leace a note here or in my email and I'll be sure to contact you if/when DitLoaC picks back up. In the event that DitLoaC DOES come to a permanent end, I will send you all a summary of the rest of the story from the end of Chapter Two.

Thank you, everyone, truly. For your support, good wishes, and most importantly: for enjoying the story enough to read it.

So.....

In new DitLoaC news, the archive has been cleaned. I was kinda depressed no one opted to save Lit's dream sequence. Oh well.
I just wanted to bring attention to the new way of doing eyes. If you go to the timeline, and look at some of the FOR b&w pages, you'll notice that I used to do this. It makes me very happy, with the aide of my new quill pens (well, not so new now), and a trick in adobe, that I can once again put that kind of detail into the eyes.
I hope you all enjoy it, since it secretly makes me happy. Not to mention, brings a bit more life to the characters. Evidently I also learned how to add details to my jeans. This page truly is, a stepping stone, at least to me.
*smiles* Thank you for reading this!

NEWS FLASH-CLEANING HOUSE

I've made a pause in my cosplay to sit in front of my computer, and I'm finally going to take the advice I was offerend. Next Saturday (the 19th) I'll be cleaning out the archive. Which means, any and all comics that aren't part of the story (i.e.-the first three comics, and all Saturday pages.) will be tossed. If there are any comics that'll be getting tossed, that you think should be saved and put into the misc. art section of the site; please let me know so I don't heedlessly toss something others found amusing.

Also, I've noticed my shoutbox has been on the fritz more often then I'd like. So ther SHOULD be a new model/version up there in the next couple of days. So that you're not wondering whether you'll be able to post yer thoughts today or not.

In regards to the comics that are going to be axed: Please, give exact dates (it'll be those six numbers at the end of the address), and you can post them either here, or hopefully in the SB as well. All comics with precise dates will be saved. But I won't be saving all of em. It's up to you guys to tell me which ones are worth saving from the trash bin, and which aren't.

Gomen.....

*claps hands togethers and bows* GOMEN NASAI!!!!
I'm gonna axe the Saturday strips for awhile. Why?
Well this weeks isn't up because I felt dreadful all week, and I'm just not getting back to normal. So the idea of doing anything besides sleep really didn't appeal to me.
I also have a massive project to do for Otakon (late July). Judgement from World of Warcraft?

Yea, I need to make that. So, worrying about what day of the week it is, and drawing silly compolsury strips for Saturday isn't gonna be high on my list. Especially once I slip into cosplay mode, it's bad to get me out, since then I'll slack off again.
Right. So, Saturdays strips will be on hiatus till further notice, I apologize. But hey, the general story will still be going 3 days a week, that's something, right?

Contest Ends

Yea, I totally didn't have access to the net for most of the con, sorry you had to wait.
The winner is DarkyBoy, for their guess of 250, which was the closest to the actual number on 269.
DarkyBoy, you are in charge of getting your info to me so I can send out your prize.

If anyone is interested in my 2007 AB experience, I'll be doing a con report and posting it to my LJ probably in the next few days.
I'd say more, but there isn't anything left that I can think of, other then I lost my cell phone and that is a sad thing.

Just to let you know.....

Current guesses for the contest are:

100, 101, 102, 123, 250, 321, 335, 412, 420, 550, 666, 681, 724, 730, 747, 840, 900, 905

If anyone cares, so far Darkyboy, you've guessed the closest.

Also, I'm gonna be away from my computer from now till, likely the 24th (at the earliest). There'll still be an update next Saturday (because I did it last night, and barring any issues, it shall likely be as true then as I'm expecting it to be.)
I'll be playing musical crash-space, with my itinerary as follows: Albany->Orange County, NY->NYC->Boston->Orange->Back home. Geh.
I will confirm who the winner is when I get back after AB.
Hopefully, when AB is over after my mad card handing-out-skillz, we'll have some new people in the SB, and maybe at some point enough people to warrant getting a forum useful! *droops* But then I'd have to change the map images. GEH!

Is anyone out there?

Let's see if anyone reads this. I have a deviantart account, I update it once every 5000 years or so, when the moon does shine and the wind doth blow, so you've got awhile. Anyway, it has a few trinkets in it, like the full picture that was cut down for DitLoaCs original web maps; and sneak peaks at the five arch angels.
This is a test to see if anyone actually reads this portion of the site. We now return you to your regular scheduled web browsing.
Deviant Art meets DitLoaC?
