SketchFlow - odd
SketchFlow is a program from Microsoft written for web design. It has a rather innovative approach to page flow, as the sketches are actually attached to the flow chart symbols. I had asked questions about it to others, but after using it, I figured it might waste the time to others and deleted that post.
SketchFlow is a cool idea implementation, though on my computer it isn't very fast at drawing directly into the computer. If you import sketches in, you can use the unique layout and see the best story flow... though I think if you had drawn on paper, you could shuffle papers faster. So... cool idea, but no go. Perhaps after more memory this fall, SketchFlow will be peppier. The reason why SketchFlow is so interesting is the non-linear application that it could be used for.

Thank you for the congrats, Brien. Sounds pretty cool. I'll be happy to feel the baby kick. Don't if my wife will after the first time, though.
I'd suggest you put your webcomic on deviantART and pay for the membership. That way you don't have figure out how to bring visitors to your website because millions already visit deviantART. The membership allows profit from your art. And there's probably over 5 million members... hard to imagine better potential for advertisement. You can use your deviantART page as a link to a LinkedIn profile. And if you're feeling imaginative and full of pep, you could learn blender and advertise through non-traditional methods like Second Life and Blue Mars. You could also pay google ads for advertisement toward your deviantART link. Can't imagine a better deal for your buck myself. Just my suggestions, though.

Frist off, congrads on your upcoming baby! The last month before launch is so cool(and relatively painfree if you're the guy), especially when you can see and feel the arm and leg movements through the side of the womb.
I starting to think about setting up a website for my first webcomic. I'm no programer, so ifI'm probably hunting for something in a box that would allow me to create a quality site. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,

CCAS at Comic-Con
The 'Spirituality in Comics' Panel from San Diego Comic-Con 2011
In comics, movies, and even Broadway musicals like “The Book Of Mormon”, spiritual themed work seems to be unexpectedly coming from the least religious of sources.
Panelists including SERGIO CARIELLO (The Action Bible), RUSSELL DALTON (Marvelous Myths: Marvel Superheroes and Everyday Faith), BUZZ DIXON (Serenity/Hits & Misses), and MIKE SHIELDS (Blue Blazes) discuss how a new generation of comics and pop culture are exploring timeless truths and also address the question “Is Mass Media Our New Church?”
