No problem - I know all too well how it feels to be financially challenged at the moment! Thanks for the comment about the Banal Pig strip - yours was so funny! The whole anthology was great and we're pimping it to the max in the shop! I'm actually planning an anthology of my own too if you're interested in taking part? It won't be until summer time but I've already got some interest from a plethora of Small Press talent, and I'd love you to be in on it! I'll give more info when I actually know what I'm doing! Hope all is well!

Hey, how's it going? I thought I'd comment here instead of MySpace because I really should give this place a chance, especially now that I know how to upload pictures - woot! Just to let you know, there's still a Cluck painting that could be yours...!

Thanks for the comments - I'll bear your ideas in mind for a possible sequel :)

Always good to have a fellow Newcastle-based dude in the friends list.
Cheers.

Hi there! We’re starting up this year’s Small Press Idol…and wanted to invite you to the grand unveiling of this year’s Guidelines. I apologize for the all-in-one nature of this. At this time, individuals and teams have a little over a month to get things together and be ready to post their Round 1 entries. Round 1 will last till March 25th. It’s a solid window to get a project together and qualified for Round 2 past our judge panel. If you are interested in being a contestant, this is fair warning to get a project going!
If you are a news outlet or resource of any sort, we invite you to help spread the word about Small Press Idol, and get on the official Sponsors and Supporters list on the Idol Main Page. Traditionally, the page has gotten hundreds of thousands of hits a month for the 5 months the contest runs. All we ask in return for the link placement on our prominently placed list, is a link back in some way that is fairly prominent, and that you indeed cover the contest if you are a news site. You can contact us about that right from the guidelines page.
Just want to watch the show? That’s great! Now is time to sign up at the site so you can VOTE in the rounds to come, and post comments about your favorites! We’re expecting hundreds of contestants this year. It should be a lot of fun!

Hope this message reaches you in the spirit it was intended, you are welcome to ask questions, and otherwise make sure this is for real. This is the fourth year for the SPI. Last year’s contest pages are still online. So that’s what this is about, hope it interests you!
