DANK: Why don't you first use your artistic talents to develop an awesome homepage? I have seen a lot of artist's homepages, they all seem so artistic and have the exact 'taste'/'look' as the pictures so a visit gives you the feeling of 'WOW! awesome!'. The pictures would come so much more to their right.If you have no HTML, CSS etc. experience you can always use a program like Dreamweaver or Frontpage. If I am right then you've designed these pages at the website of homestead (through a CGI application), which doesn't give you a lot of functions.Maybe you could also upload the pictures at original size (the pictures on your site are smaller than the originals, right?), so you don't have to look hard (hé! I have -7.00 at both eyes!) to see the details (which are very important for artists, right?).Finishing your site seems at this point (to me) the smartest thing to do. But if you want to divide your work I say you should make a LeChuck's Revenge (MI 2) comic.

Well, i am definatly interested in working on a MI2 comic!my website is in the basics at the moment and i am just getting to grips with the production of a website. i have little resources with which homestead will allow me to use with my website. i didn't think too much about the design to start with on the website, but it kinda' developed and became half inspired by other work i have done in the past, in a kind of retro-way.i plan to correct the website and make improvements to the pages and add more to the website.tell me more about how you would like my pictures to be shown on your website!!i am interested!

Well, I'm planning on making a separate 'Drawings' section on my site. But first I will have to check if I have enough space on my site... If not, I will make another site. So that should not be a problem.

You mean webspace? If so you could also host your site on http://www.f2s.com. Unlimited webspace there! Trust me, I put a 550 megabyte file on it (2 months ago) and it's still on it.

I registered a domain name now. But there is still some work left before I can put my website up and running.

I don't think that those pictures should be put on a monkey island site, although i can produce pictures specifically based on monkey island. i have good portraits of guybrush and elaine.

I have just sent two portraits, one of guybrush, one of elaine by email to be put in the 'fan creations' section of this website. i hope that they will be shown and you can see them to decide if you like them or not. they are both in colour and were just completed today. let me know if you like them and want them to be on your new website.i would appreciate any feed back from anybody with any opinions of the two new pictures due to be shown, or on the other six pictures on my own website.
