Frequently Asked Questions

Gold Coin Comics is updated twice a week. I usually update on Monday and Thursday nights (US time). However, there might be an occasion where I only have time to update the next day (I've been pretty regular with updates so far, though). I will also upload a rare bonus update every once and awhile, so watch for those (I will announce it when that happens).

You can absolutely link to this site! Create a text link to www.goldcoincomics.com OR pick one of the banners under the Banners page to create an image link! As for a link exchange, no, I simply do not have a place on the site to display something like that. HOWEVER, I will give you a FREE link to your site, without you even having to link back! Though it would be nice if you did. Anyway, see the question below to learn how you can have your link on this site.

Yep! Send me an e-mail with a link to wherever the image is. Please do not send it to me as an attachment or as embedded content in the e-mail. It can be as simple as a Photobucket account. I prefer that the image's width be a maximum of 550 pixels--if larger, I will try to resize it. In the e-mail, include a link to your website (if you have one), and I will display it under the GCC fan art. Lastly, please keep in mind that my definition of fan art is a picture that involves the Gold Coin Comics characters. An image that is similar to my art style but does not involve one of my characters is not fan art. And thank you for taking the time to make something! It always makes me happy to see what the GCC audience has created.

There isn't a need for me to take guest strips at this time. I would consider making a guest strip for another comic--please e-mail me and we could iron out the details there. I wouldn't need many details, just a general summary of what your comic is about and when you would like me to have the strip finished by. I suppose I would need at least a week's notice in advance.

I will create GCC strips for EXACTLY as long as it takes to complete the story--and no longer. I have absolutely no plans on dragging this out just for the sake of creating strips. Every chapter that occurs will be important for the story (even if it's just a side quest they're completing). That said, I don't know how many chapters it will take. The story might evolve and take a different direction from what I can predict currently.

Sure! There are also sites to rate comics, I believe, so you might consider checking those out as well.

Yep--send me an e-mail with the questions and I'll fill in the answers. Be sure to send me a link to the interview when completed!

There are several ways you can support this site. To help pay for the costs, consider purchasing something from the online shop. I can't keep this going without paying for it somehow! And there are also free ways to help as well--keep links to Gold Coin Comics on your site (through the banners provided or otherwise), use the Tell a Friend form to help spread to word, click the vote button on the main page, and talk about it on social networking sites, such as Twitter or Facebook.

Yes. While my characters are based on stereotypical RPG characters that spawn across multiple games, you should play Legend of Dragoon to see where I was inspired for many of my ideas. Lance's background, in particular, is heavily based on Dart's.

Adobe Illustrator, my laptop, and my thinking cap.

It completely depends on the strip. Some might take an hour, some might take a day, depending on how elaborate the particular art in that strip is.
