Tab Update and Hawt Tom Pic.

by Tab on October 3, 2011 at 11:08 am

Hi everyone!

Surgery went well on the 26th, but due to some bleeding around the incisions I had to go back into hospital this weekend. All is fine now though, they just needed to clean me up and change the dressings.

I’m slowly getting back to normal, but it’s going to be a little bit longer to update the comic than I thought. I can handle a keyboard because I rest my arms on the desk, but 2 hours of sustained drawing on the tablet will be a bit much for me at the moment.

I’ll be around on the internet and answering emails, maybe writing some stuff and drawing by hand when I can. To tide you over to the next update, here’s a voting incentive thingy:

This one is the Tom part of the Pin up series I’ve been working on. Enjoy!

LGBT* in Video Games, Anime and Manga

by Tab on September 7, 2011 at 12:21 pm

I’m putting together a talk on LGBTWTFBBQ people in Video Games, Anime and Manga so I’d like people’s input on characters they felt were good examples of queer culture.

I’m not really looking for examples where the sexuality or gender of the character is played as a joke. A good example is Leo from Tekken. Though particularly bad examples are good too, to show how things SHOULDN’T be done.

I’m particularly interested in examples that don’t fall directly LGBT. Does anyone know of any Asexual, gender queer or poly characters?

Server Issues once again

by Tab on September 5, 2011 at 2:56 pm

So, the website host we’re using is complaining that we’re using too much of our CPU allowance on the server we’re on. The upgrades they suggested are around £50+ a month on top of our original package.

So, begin the hunt for a new host!

We need someone that can handle:
3 domains (khaoskomix.com, khaoskostumes.com and thekhaoticemporium.com)
One forum Subdomain
300gb/month traffic
2mil pageviews/ month
Cpanel or similar.
24hour tech support
Promised 100% up time.
Shell access to the server

Here’s what the current host says about our CPU usage:

“the server you are currently on has dual quad core Xeon processors, with 16GB of ram. While you were not using all of the available resources, you were using quite a sizable chunk of what is a pretty powerful server, especially if you want to reactivate your store.”

Any recommendations?
