April 7th:It's that time again e621! The 2025 staff drive will be opening later this week! Please get your resumes and forklift licenses ready and keep an eye on the news/forums. Hope to see some fresh meat for the salt mines.
Feb 26th:A new bill in Arizona is making its way through the Senate that would force sites like e621 to implement mandatory age verification for all users—or face potential lawsuits. This system would require third-party vendors to verify every user’s age through a government database. Not only is this a massive violation of privacy, but it also introduces serious risks, including identity theft through phishing schemes and other malicious methods. Worse still, we would have no control over ensuring that user data is permanently deleted after verification.
Since e621 operates out of Arizona, this law would almost certainly impact us if it passes. If you want to help ensure that we can continue serving you without being forced to collect personal information, we urge you to contact Arizona’s senators and ask them to vote NO on this bill.
Please help spread the word about this issue and encourage others to take action.
Further information on the bill itself can be found at the Free Speech Coalition: https://action.freespeechcoalition.com/bill/arizona-hb-2112/
We still have a Discord server, come talk to us!

MemberWith most of these longer text-based comic pages, you are forcing 3-5 comic pages worth into a single comic page.
When that commenter said earlier the text to comic ratio was right, it was correct only for that page, not the following pages. And even than only because stretching that exact page to 2 pages would have artificially slowed down the pace of the comic for no added details to the story.
Now, you are sacrificing needed details for a mostly rushed pace.
As it is now, the chapter 0 pages should have been fully skipped as they ruin the flow of the comic while not providing the reader with context that they need. There is only 2 contexts where having the chapter 0 pages as they are would work. The first being if the comic is focusing on broad strokes of the story which it clearly isn't. And the other being that what was being told in those pages was also being told to the main character that we first would be focusing on which isn't what happened in comic.
As is, the chapter 0 pages information would have made more sense to be revealed slowly in further comic pages.

MemberYeah, you (and burnersexaccount) are 100% right about that. I'm still trying to find a good middle ground on what details should be shown in both text and visuals and what should just be left in the text, so sometimes pages like this happen...
I normally don't wanna reply to critical comments, mainly because I don't wanna be or be seen as someone who argues with critics, but I just want you to know I took yours seriously and it makes me wanna improve more.

Memberagain it your first comic you're still trying to figure out ways to do text to picture ratio but I really find your story really interesting because I feel like you can do a lot of ideas for pokemon chastity and don't be afraid to comment because I was wondering if I should have said that or not (a bit self conscious on commenting here) but keep up doing the great work on that comic I am loving the comic.
