Remember the old "art for adspace" deals we were running? Yeah, we've thought about those, and we're going to nix both of them in favor of a mix of the two in a single idea.

We've got adspace, and we're ready to give it to anyone who's willing to whore a little bit of their artistic talent out. But instead of doing a monthly deal, or drawing JUST a special request from myself, Sechs, or Rags to get the deal, we're going to do things a little differently now.

While we WILL still be offering adspace for drawing a special request, we won't be limiting you to doing just that. Additionally, we won't be locking you into a monthly deal like we had for some artists in the past. Instead, we'll be offering the following deals:

• If you draw a picture of Sage, Sechs, or Rags (or any combination of the three), you'll earn adspace for any amount of time up to two months. This means that you have essentially free reign to draw Sage, Sechs, and/or Rags how you see fit. (Obviously, we're not going to be comfortable with our characters being drawn in certain situations or doing certain things; if it seems questionable, please ask beforehand.)
• If you draw one of our special requests, you'll earn adspace for any amount of time up to four months. This means, however, that you're going to have to draw a specific idea from one of us.

This time around, we're not going to decide how long an ad will run by the quality/color content of the image (no more "black and white gets you two months, full color gets you four months"); instead, you'll decide exactly how long you want your ad to run. If you want it to run for just a couple of weeks, or the full timeframe you've earned, it will be entirely your decision. Per previous standards, the ad must be a 600x98 banner, and it can only be for sites/projects/products that you, the artist, are directly involved in (your FA page, an art auction, a paysite, etc).

Per previous standards, any artist listed as being completely DNP on this site is ineligible for this deal.

Reference material for Sage, Sechs, and Ragnarok can be found here: http://dammitfreehaven.com/photo/fanart/

Here's a short list of my own personal requests; Sechs and Rags will probably post some later, and we'll all add new requests to the thread as we think of them:

• Sage having sex with Tina Lynx; preferably, this would feature Tina on top of Sage. Zig Zag and/or Sechs reacting to the scene somewhere in the background would be a fun bonus, but not necessary.
• Sage having sex with Tila Sunrise from Las Lindas' "Dungeons and Dames" and "Breasts Are the Best" bonus comics.
• Any of the following characters in a revealing harem outfit: Gadget Hackwrench, Callie Briggs, Squirrel Girl, Sechs Fuckheaven

This is very relevant to my internets

Wow. Now I wish I had something to sell.

Now I'm curious. I'm sort of a newcomer to these parts so I missed some critical information; are you guys hosted for free by someone and just use the ad space entirely for this stuff, or is it just cheap enough that you can blow off the occasional month or two worth of revenue without problems?

We don't make revenue from the site AT ALL. Sechs pays for the hosting out of her own pocket; we get the hosting for a pretty good price from cho0b (he who runs wtfux and Lulz.net). Our adspace is strictly an "art for ads" deal. Despite my *ahem* loose stance on copyrights and such, even I would feel pretty bad if we used the board (which, for all intents and purposes, runs off the back of other people's content) to make money for ourselves.

Since neither Sechs nor myself are artists (and I think that Rags would fall under that qualifier as well), we decided that having people do pics for us would be a better way to offer adspace on the board.

Well duh. But it seems weird to me to still have ads even if you don't need or use them to keep from operating at a loss. The main reason I've learned to tolerate Internet ads in general is that I know they're necessary to keep the bulk of the Internet running.

But then, I guess online advertising did start as people just swapping ads for free to cross-promote the sites they still ran at a loss. So I'll shut up now.

...Say, if I were to draw art of any of your characters, would I get to use my ad space to make the site ad-free for a week or so?

It's our way of doing something nice for the artists who post around here. We don't HAVE to have ads on the site; we do it because we want to.

>Say, if I were to draw art of any of your characters, would I get to use my ad space to make the site ad-free for a week or so?

Uh...seeing as how that defeats the purpose of us having the adspace in the first place, I'm gonna have to say no on that.

I should note, the gallery page has changed location.
