Ok, First real blog…

Welcome, Welcome!

To the new website for ‘The Peace Keeper’s Force’!!

It’s spiffy, clean, and well organized with plenty of easy to update features. Chances are the first wave of you will be the readers who check in on Friday and found a link to the new site! The next round of you lot should come in on soon, when I update the DNS to redirect over here!

If you care to, you can re-bookmark the page at peacekeepersforce.com, but I’m not sure if you REALLY have to. If you notice a slight hiccup when you try to load the page that’s probably the redirect. So if you want to lose that change the book mark. If you don’t give a crap, well…you’ll be fine…I think.

I’ll announce it if I find out otherwise.

So! The new site! Pretty sweet, eh? I got a pretty, generic, template and tweaked it a tad, but I hope that come winter break I’ll have some time to really sit down and play with it!

I have big ideas for this little place people. BIG ideas.

You’ll notice that the nice ‘image-y’ links are gone from the top, that’s becasue I felt that the page was cleaner looking without them. However, the old ‘internal’ navigation links are still the pretty pictures you’ve come to know and love.

I’ve transfered most of the old content over here. I’m leaving Book one where it’s at though, I’ve updated all the links.

I’m thinking in a week or two I’ll delete everything past Book Two Prologue from that old site and just throw up a ‘we’ve moved’ image. That way the old site will house all Book One, and none of Book Two. I havent decided yet though.

The only reason I’m not bringing Book One over here is becasue of the fact that I’d have to change the file names of over 300 comics. And it was a big enough pain in the ass to do it to eighty something.

I’ll also be offering ZIPS of Book One again soon, since I have my own (unlimited) site I can do that sort of thing!!

Anyhow, welcome again. I’m happy to have you!

I think I did it…

It looks to me that thepkf.com now redirects here…with narry a lag either.

We had some down time Saturday morning, but that was really more due to the fact I had to go to sleep rather than the site acting up.

So welcome again.

I won’t know for sure how complete the transfer was until Monday when the bulk of you guys wander in, but it looks like I’m in good shape.

I’m working on some new pictures for the cast pages…but I’m taking my sweet time with em…expect to hear more about them in the coming weeks.

-Peace

PS: Again, welcome to the new site!!

Well…most of you made it…

After watching my stats rise and rise today I’m happy to report that almost all of you manged to make the move.

Also, as I haven’t heard from anyone yet, I’m assuming that the site functions correctly. I tested it in a few differenct browsers and the only ones that had issues were browsers I never even heard of. (I used this neat site to take pictures of my site in dozens of different browers) So things look good.

It also looks like my auto update thingy works good. So…yeah…

Just letting everyone know things are moving nicely.

I’ll have a proper post on Wednesday.

Thanks for shifting over…either with the redirect or not.

-Peace

Let’s play a guessing game!

There are five new characters, all Airosian, but four of them are mixed with something else. Can you guess what?

If you guess correctly you get a cookie!

Or a congrats from me.

Either one rocks, right?

Seriously though, I’m really very happy with this comic. It has extras in the background and everything…which is something I rarely do. What do you all think?

The five Airosians have names that will be revealed later in the story arc, but I’m very happy with their designs…they really fit, don’t they? The importance of these characters is minor, but they add a great deal to the story…so I’m happy they’re here.

And yes, Chris is having a great deal of fun today.

Also, I’m sorry I didn’t update the voter gift last Thursday, what with the new site going live I kind of forgot about it. But on Thursday you’ll get a new incentive, just like you’re supposed to.

Sorry again to anyone who really wanted a sneak peak…I didn’t realize I had forgotten until last night and by then it was too late.

Anyhow, Check in on FRIDAY for a big announcement…about the OTHER comic. Yes…it’s starting.

-Peace

New Comic is up!!

Check out the my new comic at huntthedark.peacekeepersforce.com. There’s a bit of news over there and three new pages for your consideration!

It’ll start updating Fridays. In place of the fallen PKF comic.

Come and tell me what you think!

Let’s see…

Just some stuff to talk about today, first of all, new character!

I’m still tweaking his design…I know that’s not a good thing to do post-intro, but let’s be honest…I rarely think in terms of art…even after doing this comic for so long. I still think of everything about their personalities and life…THEN their appearence.

That said, nothing too major will change about him, I’m thinking hair cut. Haha.

Anyhow, on the site side of things I’ve found a few plugins that I’ve implimented. Some stuff you won’t notice some you will. See the last post for more details on minor stuff.

But I did find an interesting little plugin that lets me edit the site without you guys seeing it! So now I can play with all the crap I want without it demolishing the site! GO ME! So now I won’t have to confine my messings to weekends to avoid bothering you guys! Yay.

Heh.

ALSO! I updated the links page with a new comic I stumbled across. I usually don’t plug unless I’m advertising there, but Steal This Comic is some good stuff. Go check him out. It’s a joke comic about a guy and a talking dog. But the dog denies he can talk…which is always fun.

That’s it. I can’t really think of anything else, but for the mostpart everything works great.

Oh. I have an RSS feed through feed burner now, hey, hey.

Check it out. It’s neat-o-keen, dangnabit.

…yes. Dangnabit.

You heard me.

-Peace

Update to Hunter today!

Go and give it a look at HUNTER! Beware, F-words are free game over there now.

You have been warned.

(It’s not too bad, don’t worry, haha)

Chris’s Little Song…

This blog is a wee-bit late. Sorry about that.

But I kind of spaced that today is one of my favorite Chris moments…I don’t know why I decided that he should be singing, but it really kind of fits his character.

There’s a bit more mind @#$% this week. He’s so much fun to write.

Haha.

Finally, I’ve discontinued the whole ‘vote for a sneak peak’ thing. I kept forgeting about it and it seems I (and two other people…maybe) am the only one who’s actually voting.

Which is oddly about how it was before. XD

So @#$% it. I’ll think of something else to do soon.

Any ideas? Nothing too complicated. But something neat you’d like to see.

Email me if you’ve got any ideas. Or just hit up the shoutbox on the right…I’m so lonely there now.

-Peace

See? I’m @#$%ing educational!

There were a myriad of ways I could have handled this comic. But I went with the more direct approach of having Chris actually say the question, which may kind of throw people off, but the fact of the mater is Chris is starting to…well…shift. It’s hard to explain without spoiling things for you, but I’m curious who may guess what’s going on before I explain it, because I’ve already started to leave hints and ideas…as well as a few distractions.

Because that’s the way I roll.

But you’re also getting some of Chris’s deeper personality, he’s quite the fan of the dramatic (if you didn’t guess from the way he toyed with Roto).

I notice that I’m talking about Chris a little too much…So I’ll try to tone that down a little. Haha…so fear not I’ll talk about other things next time.

Edit:

It occurred to me that I DO have something to talk about! The teachers of The PKF! Typically I base some of the locations of the comic on places I’ve been and I also do the same for the teachers as well.

Remember this guy? Yeah, him too. Mr. Ogle is based off a teacher I knew in Jr. High with a similar name, he was a good guy who just couldn’t convince me to stop doodling in the back of the class. And he took my stress reliver ball and never gave it back. Haha.

What about the poor Principal? Mr. Fleshman was based on my Elementary school Principal. He actually looked a hell of a lot like this. But he didn’t try the half assed combover. Lol. I always liked the real him…good guy.

Today’s teacher? Mr. Iseden. Based after an English Teacher I had back in Jr. High. He was a good guy who really wanted to help. He just rubbed me the wrong way for some reason. I was never really a jerk to him or anything…I just wasn’t nearly as talkative as I could have been. I always just sat quietly and never answered his questions.

Which I wasn’t fair of me…

/EDIT

Don’t forget, Hunter updates this Friday. I know a few of you have joined me over there, but it’s a fun little romp though the other part of the world. Remember, I can say @#$% over there now, so be warned. Haha
