That works for some stuff, true. I still have my Photoshop CS5 to use for small stuff sometimes ;)
Wish I could use the old versions of some online services and social media XD

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate new features and I'm sure someone will find it useful (maybe even me in future), but introducing something that gets in the way of loose sketching in an ART APP and turning it on automatically is wild.
Why not a popup asking if I'd like to insert a 3d model? :P

The last ten or so years of using apps and web services have been a constant "this is how we want you to use our tools. Your preferred way is still available, just one more click away. Now two clicks. Now three clicks and a menu".
Glad I can at least turn this new shit off in Clip.

OH MY GOD THANK YOU! Reposting to spread the word.
It was making me insane, and the thought of adjusting my workflows to account for it made me consider changing apps.

Any Clip Studio users able to help? Lately when I pause when drawing a line (on the ipad), the app changes it to a straight line, like some weird shortcut to the line tool.
It's driving me nuts when I sketch and try to decide on things.
Can't find anything in preferences, disabled all long press.

Done! Thanks for the message. Hope it does the trick.

Try it again and let me know please! It seems it's spotty sometimes and I'm not sure if it's server problems or the DNS

The site is back up- on a new server, too. totempole666.com
I had to reinstall some SSL stuff, so it shows up as https, but Not Secure- this should clear up soon (it did for my other site).

Five years ago, my buddy Jan Mazur and I created a comic book called "The Last Writer". It's a sci-fi dramedy about a novelist during his trip to Saturn. It was nominated for Best Polish Comic Book in 2022. We would love to publish it outside of Poland, so if anyone is interested just DM me :)

Hi! The Totempole website is down today, I'm up and will be working soon. I'll try to figure it out!

Huuuffff long time no see! Me and the fam are back from our easter trip to our birthtown. I was largely offline during this time but the comic has been updating - and is updating tomorrow as well! totempole666.com/comic/ad-ass...

It completely eluded me. The graphics don't look impressive and I don't think the steam materials show any erotica? Does it have ero elements in it?

Right? It might be my favourite one, though I remember Eroico fondly as well.

I played the original Flipwitch to completion and couldn't put it down. Great, naughty fun and I've been thirsting for more.
If you don't know the game- it's an adventure platformer with a gender-swapping witch where changing sex can help solve puzzles (and get a dick in you or your dick in someone)

Hey BERLIN!
I will be coming to the Comic Invasion in May! Here's more info in a post on my website:

Cute art in my feed today.

I've never tried bone conduction buds- I'll give them a go if I get to borrow some in future :)

Oh, they also play a dumb sound when inserted into ear, despite ear detection being turned off (just like cmf buds). I'm glad I got a deal on these or I'd be really sad right now.

A quick update on Nothing Ear 2's, after a few weeks of use.
They're kinda bad. Similar connectivity issues as Ear1 (CMF buds didn't have it), they cut off beginnings of words when I do french lessons on duolingo and the squeeze controls are very finnicky.
I'm a bit disappointed.

Hah indeed. I might just go and do a re-listen of the whole thing. I'll probably finish just in time for book 13 :)

COMICAD NETWORK Comic ad network for comics by comic artists.

Just reading or forwarding a link to the comic to an (adult) friend are also good ways to support me, of course. You can feel safe to turn off adblock on my website as well- I use www.comicad.net for all my ads now and they should all be about other webcomics!

Being between credits on Audible, having finished God's Junk Drawer by @peterclines.com and waiting for the next one to get @mattdinniman.bsky.social 's new book, I went back to re-listen He Who Fights With Monsters by Shirtaloon. Hopefully I won't sink into it for 300 hours.

Ah, sorry - the Ad Asstra has been updating every Tuesday and Friday- I may have missed a few posts about it here totempole666.com/comic/ad-ass...
I sometimes get weeks when I avoid socials or visit Bsky, see an AI-related post and just go elsewhere (I'm sure you can relate)

Just wrote what is probably the most ridiculous sex dialogue in my career so far. The next Ad Asstra scenes will be something.

In other life news, I missed St Patrick's Day AGAIN. Seems like every year I learn of it on the day itself and it feels touch to fit a beer into it.

I've been sick since Monday, so I'm taking things slow, doing work on some pages, taking breaks to play bass.
It's not the worst fate.

Not anymore you're not

So I didn't end up posting STP quotes today, too busy. But I did run a DnD game and perhaps Sir Terry would approve.
