Hi All,

I've got my strip going online -- for a few years I didn't want to put it online until I had enough back ups to be able to publish 3 times a week - the funny thing is except for the first week I've only been adding new ones - actually been pretty easy getting three a week out. Anyway, I get almost zero feedback from friends who I keep pestering to look at the strip - so please let me know your thoughts. Best, TT.

I didn't get all of the gags, but I like the drawing style.

I really like the art, but the font you use is a little hard to read at times. The letters tend to all look the same, e.g., D, P, R. I really like you're hand lettering--very crisp and clear--and wonder why you don't use that all the time.

Thanks for the feedback so far....really appreciate it. I think Uncle's comment about not getting all the gags might be solved over time - since much of the humor, to me, is based on the characters - the more you get to know them the easier it would be to understand them - and the humor (although it's probably good if not everyone gets every joke). For Bulyard comments on the font - yes, I'm trying to push that font closeness with the D, P and R a bit - hoping to keep them stylized but just on the edge of readability - I'll keep honing it in - but still want to keep the stylized look. All the text is hand lettered. I only use the computer to scan and clean up (very little).

I like the art, but it looks every so slightly blurry to me--especially visible when trying to read the lettering. Maybe needs just a touch (more?) sharpening after shrinking it down to web size?
