Donate any amount, get a Cthulhu wallpaper!
Observant readers have probably noticed a brand new donation button thing on the site. Here you can throw some spare change in the depicted cup which I will exclusively use for critical comics-related expenses, like paying the electric bills for powering my Cintiq drawing tablet or for hiring bodybuilder bodyguards to fend off myriads of overly affectionate fans.
Now of course, I’m definitely (luckily) not as poor as in the drawing, but then again like most webcartoonists I do have a day job – and without it I would probably have to draw these strips on napkins and barely be able to upload them to the internet through free coffee shop Wi-Fi. Anyway, to make sure that never happens you can donate any amount you’d like, probably even $0.01 if you’re so inclined! (edit: turns out PayPal has to get their share either way, so a more functional lower limit is about $0.20.) I don’t think there’s an upper limit for donating, but feel free to test that out as well! You know, for science.
Oh, and in return for your much appreciated support you will get a Cthulhu-themed wallpaper which is the high-res first panel from this strip. Click on the button in the sidebar (or the one below for you RSS-ers) to throw some spare change at me. Don’t hesitate to contact me if anything isn’t working for whatever reason and I’ll fix it ASAP.
Thanks! I bow to thee.
You should accept Bitcoin. It’s got lower fees than PayPal, no BS, and nerds love it.
I’ll look into that, thanks for the heads up!
I’d definitely throw money at you, but I’d really like to have something I can use for a gift. Say you’d sell prints, I’d buy that. Say you’d sell posters, I’d buy that. Say you’d sell comic books, I’d buy that. Hell, I’d even add a few bucks as a donation. But I really have no use of a wallpaper — I don’t even have a desktop to put this on. Any plans on doing that ?
Short answer: yes, absolutely! There are some other things in the work. I’d say T-shirts will (hopefully) happen sooner than later. I’ve also been researching prints (and books) lately, and these may also come to fruitition, but probably at a later date.
I definitely know where you’re coming from in regards to a preference for physical items, but doing the math for shipping from Norway has been frustrating. Still, I’m working on it!
You should check out Topatoco. Many of the webcomic artists here in the US use them and they handle shipping and everything for you I think.
Oh yeah, Topatoco looks really great. I would love to get some merch up there eventually. Unfortunately they don’t take on new clients from scratch, I think. I would most likely need to have some “independent” sales numbers under my belt already before applying. Working on, though!
I tried to donate $75 trillion dollars, but I got a “there is only $74 trillion dollars in the entire world” alert, so I couldn’t.
Oh no! My only advice would be to continuously and constantly keep trying. Also, I’m very flexible and reasonable. I’m sure we could work out an installment plan.
Why do I need a paypal account to donate money to you?!?!!?!!!!!!?
Actually that shouldn’t be the case. I’m pretty sure I set it up so you can donate without logging in to a PayPal account. Try clicking the link under the “Don’t have a PayPal account?” headline after clicking the donate button. It should work! (I think.)
Is there anyway you can fix it? I clicked the link, filled the info out but it said paypal could not verify my debit card. :/
