Theater Hopper Needs Guest Strips Soon

Submitted by Xaviar Xerexes on July 4, 2005 - 10:17

Hey! Theater Hopper needs guest strips by July 10th because creator Tom Brazelton is moving this month.

I'm REALLY gonna need guest strips from you guys before July 10. So if you're interested, draw something up and send it to me at theaterhopper@hotmail.com. If you can keep your images in JPG format, that's best. And the strips can be as long as you want, just no wider than 525 pixels. Otherwise, they break the site layout.

Just something I've been thinking about lately. It seems like all of the giants of the webcomic world reached a decent size (10,000+ readers) within their first year.

So instead of telling newbies to be persistant, should we be telling them to give it a year, then try something else?

Any examples to the contrary?
