ComicPress or Webcomic?
Which is better? I don't much about either so any info would be great.
I plan on getting one of them up and running on Davey's Place, right now I have a simple hand crafted link index, which sucks.
Also, if you know of any other webcomic apps that might be helpful, please let me know.
Thanks.

I work on web stuffs for pay. Why on earth would I not code my own site if I was going to make one? The biggest irony of all is perhaps my lack of one. But then, having a focus in Flash would probably lead me to use it at some point and I know someone would just whine about it. "Fuck you!" they'd say. "It doesn't work on my iPad OR my iPhone!" they'd say. To which I would reply with a hearty laugh. Perhaps with a malicious slant.
Basically, if you're gonna have a flash site, don't have flash ads.
Thanks.
I apologize for trying to help out with better/different options. Ya know like Sqaure Space. (Though that one costs money, it does include hosting though.)
Threads go off topic. Get over it. If anyone wants to address the topic still, they will.
EDIT: Nice timing.
Though EditPlus is an improvement on Notepad, just a little.
Also, the correct term is "like herding cats".
Has anyone worked with ComicPress or Webcomic here?
The truth here is simply that those of us here who have or had a comic at some point have also possessed a desire to handle our own site coding. You might find more pointers on coding a site on this forum than info about 3rd party comic site setups. Just a guess though. Most here probably aren't expert site coders either.
Thanks anyway, I guess my best bet is to PM Mario to see what he knows about ComicPress.
To Any Mod: You can lock this now if you're so inclined.
Also I understand being dead set against hand coding the site, but it's really not too difficult until you get into java scripting and stuff and you can do whatever you want with it.
And I hardly see locking the thread necessary.
1. As mentioned before, threads very easily go off topic. If you don't like threads going off topic, people will purposely piss you off. So sit back and enjoy the direction the thread takes. It will eventually go back on topic. Maybe.
2. Don't create threads if the topic better fits in an existing thread. This may seem obvious, but sometimes people don't think about it. Obviously, we don't expect you to look at every thread from the last 4 years, but I'd say at least check to see if a similar thread is on the first page or two.
Umm... I could probably write more, but I feel kind of weird outlining a charter of OB protocol, now that I think about it. Basically, just relax, have fun, and be yourself. That's probably the most important.
So basically you're going out of the way to ruin all subtlety. Got it.
'Tis true.
But see, here's the thing, I coded a comic-like website once before, it wasn't difficult or anything, it's just that using CP or WC would be that much easier, plus it's got the whole "legions of wordpress pulgins" thing goin' on. And WordPress is teh roxorz.
