Way back when, Brad Guigar bragged about Dave Kellett’s books and how great they looked sitting on the shelf because they all had a stripe at the same height and size running across the top of the books. Since I didn’t have any books out yet I thought about how I could maximize that effect. So four years ago on my first book I put a T at the bottom of my book spine.

Sales tax is a state-mandated tax on physical goods and products. Sales-tax guidelines vary from state to state, and, therefore, it’s really difficult to keep track of for webcartoonists who (a) sell merchandize on the Web and/or (b) travel to other states to do business at comic conventions.

Webcomics.com has established itself as a tremendous resource of practical information for webcartoonists. By joining today you will have access to:
For a low subscription of $30 per year, you will have access to all of this plus the entire Webcomics.com archives, one of the most helpful and supportive forums for creative people on the Web, and several members-only offers.
Your subscription lasts for twelve months after your sign-up day — not the calendar year.
A Webcomics.com membership sets up a recurring payment of $30 per year. So as long as you’re an active member, your PayPal account is billed $30 annually.
Of course, you’re not locked into anything… you can easily cancel that recurring payment at any time.
Each of you is going to get a message that your automatic payment to Webcomics.com has been cancelled. Before you get worried, here’s what’s going on.
Moving to this new site has meant moving to a different subscription system. Therefore, I have to cancel your automatic payment with the old site so you don’t get double-billed when your subscription payment is due.
Your expiration date was moved over with your membership account.
When it is due for renewal, you will be asked to re-subscribe under the new system.
This will set up a brand-new automatic subscription payment.

Q: Here’s an age old question for webcomic artists. Someone emails you and says:
“I’m starting a new blog. I love your comic and I’d like to post one of the comics from your site to my blog each week. I’ll be sure to link back to you.”
What do you say to this?
The funny thing is that if this person wasn’t being polite and asking, you probably wouldn’t have even known it was happening!

Change your Kickstarter password and then come back to read this.
Kickstarter released a statement yesterday confirming that their popular crowdfunding site had been hacked. They had been alerted to the fact three days earlier. From their site:The content you are trying to access is only available to members.
Your subscriptions have been transferred over to this new site! However, you will be asked to create a new password. This will not double-bill you for a new subscription. It’s merely a by-product of moving to a new system!
Here’s how it will go. You enter your username and the password you used for the old site. You will get the following screen…
Click on the “Lost password” link. You’ll see this…
Type in your Webcomics.com username or the e-mail that is attached to the PayPal account that you created your membership with. You will receive a link to create a new password at the e-mail that is attached to the PayPal account that you created your membership with.
Your existing membership is honored at the new site. However, once your existing membership expires, you will be asked to resubscribe to the site. That’s because we’re using a different subscription plug-in, so, in effect, you’re going to be creating a “new” subscription.
Likewise, over the next few months, you will receive an e-mail that says that your subscription to Webcomics.com has been cancelled. That’s just me, cancelling your old subscriptions so you don’t get double-billed when it’s time to create a new subscription. If your membership expired between February 14-17, you may get double-billed. As soon as you create your new subscription, I will refund the earlier payment. If you have any concerns about being double-billed, don’t hesitate to get in touch with me using the Contact link at the top of the site.
I still see the old site. Please clear your browser cache.

Editor’s Note: This post does not mean you cannot use your domain-based e-mail to register on Webcomics.com — especially for Returning Members. Rather, it’s a general, all-purpose piece of advice about Web safety.
When Phillip Hofer, the man who created Comic Easel and co-created ComicsPress, gives me a technology tip, I take it to heart. And this one kinda took me back.
“Do not use personal domains to register for Web sites,” he warned me, “use GMail [or an equivalent].”
