I’ve gone and re-written the Blog Publication Control yet again. This means that you should see this post (and the rest of the Autumnside Blog) underneath the comic — even if you’re running Netscape, or viewing the page from a PSP. It might even fix the problem we’ve been seeing with the Webcomic List’s crawler, if we’re lucky.

Hey folks,

Just wanted to let you know that there have been some strange issues with the voting buttons over the past few days. Buzzcomix is updating to a new version, and while we’re set up with them OK, it looks like their site is down right now. Thewebcomiclist has us listed, but isn’t detecting our site updates, for reasons we’re still trying to figure out.

Thanks for your patience while we get these minor issues fixed.

Also — Autumnside mugs are hopefully coming soon!

[Leanne] Anime Expo and ComicCon

Tue, 22 Jul 2008 15:40:51 +0000

I know it’s kind of late to be writing a con report for Anime Expo. Well, this month has been kinda crazy with lots of stuff going on. So crazy, in fact, that I won’t be at the San Diego ComicCon — I’ll be at a wedding instead. (Congrats, Julia and Pete!) I should be at ComicCon next year. San Diego is my hometown, and I really want to be there!

So. Anime Expo was pretty cool. In fact, I think it was the best time I’ve had at AX, and I’ve attended and worked the con for several years. I got to meet a Gaia Online friend of mine, and make some new friends. I spent a lot of time in the shoujo room showing videos, and can recommend that you check out Strawberry Marshmallow and World of Narue, which are both excessively cute, and IGPX, which is roller derby with mecha. How can you go wrong?. No super-big winners this year like Shingu: Secret of the Stellar Wars (which if you haven’t seen, you should), but I found all of those entertaining for various reasons.

It was nice working the afternoon-evening shift. I got to see enough of the con before my shift, and got to check out a Photoshop panel on coloring, which was pretty good. The panelist gave me some good ideas which I’m looking forward to putting into practice.

There was good stuff in the Artist Alley. There’s always good stuff in the Artist Alley, and I actually recommend that you shop there first before you go spend money in the vendors’ hall. I got a bunch of really nice bookmarks and gorgeous original-art prints for a very good price. If you get the opportunity, you should definitely check it out; there are a lot of small gems there.

Have a good one, people!

I’d like to apologize for the slowness on the website the last couple of days. For whatever reason, it’s been grinding badly during the middle of the day — Dreamhost has been made aware of the situation, so hopefully it’ll get resolved soon.

[Leanne] Hello World!

Mon, 30 Jun 2008 16:54:36 +0000

We were looking at some of the site stats again, and noticed that we’ve got folks out there checking out the site from some cool places around the world. Shalom, Israel! Hallo, Netherlands!

I’ll be at AnimeExpo this weekend. Not as an exhibitor, sadly. (; This is probably my last year working as one of the audio-visual staff. (That’s VTech for those of you in the know.) I’ll either be wandering the con or plopped in one of the video rooms (probably Video 5, but no guarantee) showing shoujo videos. Say hi if you see me! I’ll be wearing a staff badge with Mala on it.
