You guys are making me rethink my possible involvement in all this. lol :/
Okay, so here's the spin; I may know a guy who may know an artist. Decent to boot. But, we really have to have something worth making here. So....maybe it isn't such a bad idea to have a plan? |
-norms jelly beans- I would say maybe follow the shop keepers storyline if you want to actually follow one of the story lines, theirs is a lot more light hearted and will be a lot less stressful to make.
If you wanna make your own I say do whatever you feel, an everyday on trisphee one would be cool. |
Talthea I know you've taken this project under your wing, sorry for kind of floating forward without waiting for you to post and be involved. What do you have to say about the conversation thus far? :3
From your previous posts it seems it's easy to ruffle your feathers regarding the fancomic. I want to apologize if I do for what I'm about to say below. Quote:
If I'm misunderstand your goals please correct me. |
Only a tiny bit. He'll work for free (probably...at first) if he's working on quality stuff. But, he'll definitely be asking for compensation at a later point.
He's...kinda like an art loan shark lol! He'll work for free at the start, but eventually you'll owe him. I don't imagine he'll have you put on ice if you skip out, but...there are contacts involved. Which means if you fail on your end he'll lawyer up. |
Sorry let me make something very clear here. This fancomic cannot generate money for you. It has to be non-profit because you are using trademarks of trisphee. If you'd like to make a comic with your own stuff and use nothing of ours than yes you can make money off of it. But getting someone like that to work on something that will never make profit is a bad idea.
|
I sort of knew that... <.<
Also, Quiet, thanks for the points *is digesting them mentally* |
I'm sorry, but...I think I'm all spent of ideas at this point. It doesn't help that you guys are either unwilling or incapable, for whatever reason, of actually taking a part in this... :/
You guys really should have laid out the circumstances before folks apparently got a bit excited about this. As it stands, this experiment was practically impossible from the start. A simple "Can't be done, go away!" would've been just fine at the very first post I mentioned this idea in... |
It looks to me like people are perfectly willing to work on something like this, Taletha, they just might not be inclined to work on things in the way you are specifying. When dealing with a number of people, flexibility is required if things are to turn out well.
The points Nexess makes are valid. If Trisphee is trademarked then the site is entitled to ask for payment in order for someone to use its material if they are making money off of it. Bear in mind you were also the one who said that the details of the project could wait until after we decide whether or not we actually want a comic. Well, people seem to want the comic, so now it's time to work out the details. Those details happen to mean that profit is out of the question, and I think for good reasons. We don't have to solely resort to money to help the site out. Improving the user base would work too, and I think that might be where a fan comic would work best. One thing the comic could offer to artists would be advertising for themselves (assuming it's alright). Take your friend of a friend for instance. If he were so inclined, he could appear for a chapter or a couple comics as a guest artist, with links to pages that show the rest of his work if people who happen upon it decide they like his work. It gets him some more visibility, even it it's not a whole lot to start with. |
:< I think you misunderstood lol. I didn't really have any intentions to work on this... Maybe as a writer, one day. But, it was just an idea I threw, that's all.

For it just being an idea though, you are getting excessively critical of how other people are thinking about approaching it.
I'm not saying you need to be involved if you aren't so inclined. I'm not really inclined either but I support the idea, if/when/however it gets off the ground. If it ultimately benefits the site, great. If not, well, might be fun anyway. ;) |
I'm not being critical lol. Well...maybe a tiny bit. :/
I'm just stating what you need if you want the site to get a wee bit more attention, that's all. |
No, you were being overly critical, more so cause you never fully stated that you didn't even want to do this. There are people who do want to do this, as anyone can tell from back reading this, I stepped in here to make sure you guys realized that while a fancomic would be awesome the actual staff wouldn't be able to help much but were more than willing to let whoever was interested have free reign over the storyline and art and we wouldn't interfere without a good reason, or if we were asked.
You on the other hand haven't really been on board with what the others realized was more or less possible for them to do at this current point. And it was stated very clearly by me and Toho that we weren't on board with help, multiple times. Law understood and so did kenai and still wanted to do this, so please let them sort out how they'd like to do this. |
