Hey! I'm not sure if this is the right area (feel free to redirect) but hey, it does have a bit to do with comics, lol...
SO! I know people often do banner exchanges, and I thought why not make a thread where we can organize such things?
If anyone wants to exchange with me, I'd be happy to put a picture link to your comic on my comic page. :)
Maybe we should organize it by genre: like people who have funny strips can exchange theirs, or people with manga can likewise exchange. That way, the kind of people who would naturally gravitate toward certain genres would be more likely to check out the other artists' stuff!

Anyone game?? ;D

I link to my favorite comics with small banners (234px × 60px). I've only done one actual exchange before (the others are just "one way" linking, but I might remove those if I can do some exchanges), but I'd be up for more. I also would like to get some links up with my comic strip Gelotology (which contently sits in obscurity).

So, if anyone is interested and has similar comics, I'd like to exchange 234px × 60px buttons (though I can provide a different size for my comics if needed) that have a similar theme/audience/traffic to either of mine:

Used Books: a crime drama starring three women (an assassin, cop, and doctor/scientist), 2 updates a week, ~300 views a day. Rated T+, can banner exchange with up to M rating (but no nudity or anything on banners)

Gelotology: once-a-week non-linear strip about science, ~80 views a day. Rated E, so I'd rather exchange with only E or possibly T+ comics.

You know i always wanted to network with comics like mine, but instead of a banner exchange we'd all get together and become one 'product'. Kinda like how seven seas advertises different types of webcomics except they're all on the same page, and we'd have like separate update days and the same theme type for our pages.(which would be notebooks/sketchbooks theme)
*dreams*

I do have someone i could ask but she doesn't really update and idk if she would.
...heeeey this isn't the rant and vent thread D:

Do you have a half banner (to fit in my tables)? Or, if I have your permission, I can make one.

EDIT

This is what I came up with.

My code is in this thread . (I use it on both of my comics. I'm too lazy to try something different.)

EDIT

Got you linked, Nergal

I like this idea. I was planning on putting some banners up of other comics anyway!
Just gotta make a new banner....I'm rather sick of the current one.

usedbooks, you are some kind of wonderful! : D this code is so helpful! I'm totally gonna pimp my page. In fact, if you have any tips/suggestions on my current blah layout, I'd luv to hear how I can improve my page. Yours look so good... X3 swoon.
