Hi! I'm Kez, a member of the SpiderForest webcomic collective (spiderforest.com). SF is accepting applications for new members until July 24th. SF is home to over 30 comics of multiple genres and ratings. Twice yearly we take applications, and all current members go over each application (and comic!) in depth before voting on it for entry. It's a time-consuming process, so we take applications pretty rarely.
There are only 3 requirements for membership: update your comic (preferably at least once weekly), vote in new members when the time comes, and display the rotating SF banner above the fold on your site.
While many members have DA accounts and display their comics here, DA is not an optimal place to showcase a comic. Many webcomic readers hate to read comics on DA because of ads, slowness of loading, and the lack of other information (like cast/about/archive pages). SF offers a FREE and quality home for your webcomic, with an easy to use archival code in standard webcomic format that allows first/prev/next/last buttons and news articles. Members will also assist you in coding and set up if you have no experience with HTML/CSS.
To read more and/or apply, please see our apply page: spiderforest.net/apply

Who's open for commissions?
So I often to get asked to do illustration that I don’t have time/patience for. In such cases, I try to pass the work off to someone who both wants and needs it. I do not take a percentage. Here’s the job:
Client wants an 8.5x11” black and white digital drawing of the seven virtues of bushido (slightly modified to fit him and as text, not illustration, already written) and a detailed background/frame of bamboo, leaves, etc. This image will be engraved/embossed on a silver plaque by a jeweler of his choice whenever he has the funds to do so. He believes the jeweler will handle any shading, so this will mostly be line art wit
Free Sketches!
That's right, the first 10 people who comment on this journal entry will receive a FREE SKETCH! But there's a CATCH. In return, you must offer 10 free sketches in your own journal just like I am doing. The key word here is "sketch," as in most likely fast and rough-looking; and writing commissions around 1,000 words. If I have time to do it, then so do you!
RULES:
1.) I won't start drawing for you until you offer 10 free sketches in your own journal.
2.) If it is a specific character you want drawn (OC or otherwise), please include links to any references in your comment. For writing, give me an idea of what their personality is.
3.) If y

Email (warofwinds@gmail.com), note or comment if you're interested! $20 to reserve your spot, the rest due at the time of completion (within a week or so).
WTH, Drunk Duck? 3 Days to Apply to SpiderForest
I guess it may seem somewhat petty to criticize a site that is giving free hosting to comic creators, but I guess when you compare what DD offers to what other free hosts or collectives offer, then it's not so petty. I wonder how many people hosted by DD actually realize how much they are getting ripped off?
DD makes money off you. Are you aware of that? All those ads they display pay not only for the costs of maintaining your site there, but they make MORE off you, and you never see a dime. You actually get slammed down if you complain, because hey, it's free for you!
You may then bring up the point, "Well, I can display Project Wonderful

The artist of Gestalt does these great pages, but it'll only just reach 15 pages tomorrow. I know judges try to be fair, but I'm sure other applicants have longer entries than our own, so I'm not sure how it would measure up to theirs. Do you think having only the bare minimum number of pages so far would count against us?
