Got you, Dominic!

For visual effect nowadays you can use a variety of portable devices, even your phone!

Because of health issues, I'm sorry to announce a pause in my updates, for a time I can't define.

Thanks for reading! A week from now, this comic is going to be two years old and have almost 200 pages posted, although counting a few multiple page submissions, I could say I already posted the 200. Another milestone to mention is reaching 3 million pageviews, small potatoes for the big ones, but an inconceivable number for me.

Another unexpected discouraging setback is that my ad boxes were cancelled. I was using part of that money to advertise with very good results and getting new readers. In the end it's again Paypal's ambiguous policy towards adult content.

    I hope you recover soon Inky. [Oh, and the reason that I haven't been commenting lately is my PC died on the 3td and I just got back online today.]

    Well .. you know where to find me ..
    In the comment section below !

    XD

    Anyways, suck with paypal, I didn't know they were so prickly about money, you'd think they'd like the business ?

    As for your illness, I hope it goes well and won't hold you from drawing for long. I still don't know *what* it is, but I hope you get better. :)

    And 200 pages and 3 million pageviews is not bad at all !
    In fact, I think it's pretty darn good.

    Good thing you didn't just leave it back when the comic had it's previous hiatus. Instead you picked it up and took the comic in this new and improved "serious" direction. That is a big part of why it got so far already. And it can go further!

      Well, they are basically covering their ass with Paypal and I knew it could happen anytime.

      Thanks for the good wishes, but I am embarrassed now to have brought the subject of illness (I'll talk about it when this is over), because it may look like a cry for sympathy.

      Oh, and this time isn't like my previous hiatus. That time I was actually lost!

      • Sheela

        There is a problem with sympathy ? Dang.

        And how were you lost ?
        -Lost in the woods ?
        -Lost in the kitchen ?
        -Lost in LA ?

        • Inky

          I meant lost in the sense that I had no idea how to continue the story.

          (And I actually got lost in Los Angeles once!)

    Get well soon, because I love this comic. 'Nuff said! :)

    • Inky

      I will and I'm glad.

  4. Daniel

    Again I hope you get well soon we'll miss you and your great comic

  5. Ha damn, double damn, triple damn!
    First of all, your health soon, hope it's not too bad and you'll be back on tracks soon enough.
    Hum sad for your ad boxes...How does it worked?

    And on a side note: your two cops are lefties?

    • Inky

      Heheh, good catch, they are the lefty cops!

      About the ads, sometimes I could make a couple bucks, sometimes it just performed miserably. On the good days I placed banners on other sites, which got me a lot of traffic.

      And I am okay, I just prefer to take a little time off and not start missing updates.

  6. Plymayer

    I too hope you will be feeling better soon.

    You do a great job with Inkdolls every update is great.

    • Inky

      Thanks Plymayer, I'll be back soon.

  7. Espero que todo te paserás bien. ¡Cuídate!

    • Inky

      ¡Gracias Memo!

    Sorry to hear of ur health issues. I hope not too many of them relate to paying for them, and that you are back fit and drawing again, SOON.

    While I and I'm sure the others who follow will miss the fine art, interesting story line and believable (well mostly) characters, I also want you to be well and able to do what you want.

    All the best; watching rss for your return.

    • Inky

      Haha "mostly", thanks for the honesty! Don't worry, I'll be back.

    Paypal!!!! *raised fist*

    :( I'm sorry that your health is setting you back, Inky. I've enjoyed the comic every day I've read it, and I'll certainly look forward to your return. Let us know if we can help in some way.

    • Inky

      Thanks! Well, just wait for a bit. I'll try to make up for the missed updates.
