Socks and Puppets.

I've decided to give this project the kiss of life, at least briefly. Expect regular updates at least once a week.

If you wanted to take part in S&P, sadly the game is now underway. You can still email me to register interest though. I'll hold your address on file, and remind you the next time a game comes around.

Hello all! now is the time to sign up for socks and puppets, and show your creative talents. Information about the game can be found here - spread the word! In other news. btPHP sucks.

While I still have a large "ideas folder" on my desk for strips to publish, I've recently not felt very inclined to make any of them (hence why updates are so slow.) - however, if you have an idea for something you'd like to see on this comic, I'm always open to suggestions. My creative impulses seem to get stronger the more people I involve. Just email me at dtb26@cantab.net

Happy 2009!

Christmas Hiatus:

I am visiting my parents over the christmas period, so there is no way I can update S&P with new images.

I'll put a few random bonus images up over the christmas period, things I have lying around in my webspace.

I started counting site visitors in May where this site got about 5 visitors a day (myself included) - shortly after I added the RSS feed, meaning that several of the regulars stopped even visiting the site.

As of today, (since May,) the site has had 5000 visits from over 2200 different IP addresses, and more than 15k pageviews. In general the visitors range between 20 and 50 each day, and there are about twenty people signed up to the RSS feed. 73% of visitors use firefox, and somebody views this site with a browser called "seamonkey"

If you can believe google, that is.

The socks and puppets game is currently running, you can find reports at This page


A few people have expressed interest since the game started running. If I get enough interest to form a second group of players, I'll set them up to play.

The socks and puppets game is open for signups! (This will be a UK based game, one round, running from 25th November until Christmas.) - the top page for the game is at http://www.socksandpuppets.com/game/game.html You've still got a while to sign up!

S+P currently updates when I get time to do one, no schedule. Feel free to, y'know, take part.


In other news, there will be a new run of the S+P game over Christmas, one month creation time, one round, and a prize for the winner. I'll put the rules up soon. (Remind me if I don't.)

Sorry I've been updating so little recently. I've kind of moved house, and my whiteboards/scanner/post-processing PC are in the other one. I'll get some new comics up starting next week, don't you worry.



In the mean time, Piccolo's Diary has been updating regularly. Mostly this one has been updating because I can transport art that's on paper without destroying it in the process.

I've added S+P to several online comic lists, for example, OnlineComics.net - if you found me through one of these, let me know!

Hurrah!

By popular demand, S&P is now syndicated on Livejournal (Add SocksandPuppets as a friend) and also has an RSS feed you can subscribe to.

You can start the dance now

I am always looking for feedback, and you can do this by emailing me (my email is at the bottom of every page.) However, if you want to chat directly, there's now a socks and puppets irc channel. You can find it by pointing your irc at irc.srcf.ucam.org and joining #socksandpuppets

See you there!

I think this pretty much says it all... apart from... who's linking to me? I have no idea - google will tell me that all these new hits came from "referring sites" but not whose sites they are.
