QnA and comments
on November 25, 2019
I finished uploading all the older questions that were publicly available in download packs, and Sokaras tagged them all (Thanks Sokaras!)
We’ve also been working on character sheet content, and a new section for that will be created soon-ish, along with a bonus art section and a fanart section, there’s still much work to be done.
Since the website has been climbing up on google ranks, spam bots started showing up in the comment, so I had to force user registration for comments, sorry legit anons!
Character Questions added
on November 3, 2019
I just uploaded the first 50 character questions, and plan to add more during the month until the entire content of the public pack is there. Character tags will be added later~
No updates today (oct 18th)
on October 18, 2019
Hi everyone, I’m sorry to say, but there won’t be an update today.
Yesterday a massive storm knocked down the power for most of the city, and I just got it back 20hrs later. I gotta go through my food and see what can be salvaged, then do a grocery, take a shower, take care of my pets, etc…so today’s update just won’t be ready in a reasonable time. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Also, I’ve read what you had to say regarding email notification, and that’s good, I’ll leave things as is then 🙂
Updates and notifications
on October 10, 2019
So, I plan to update more of the past content this weekend and I was wondering something regarding notifications. So far subscribers to the site only get notifications through the wordpress dashboard, in the activity tab. They can always subscribes to RSS notifications, but would you all be interested in an email/newsletter/push notification based system? Granted for now it would be hell as I publish 20-30 new pages/images at a time, but would that be an interesting feature for the future when the updates are more sparse and regular? I’d be happy to hear your opinion and suggestions on the matter.
I want to keep people updated, but not spam them. Personally for my favorite webcomics I just check the website whenever they usually update, and if I’m subscribed it’s for commenting or accessing forums and such. I don’t think we’ll have a forum, since there is the massive and lively discord community already, but who knows. There are other features the subscriber system could be useful for, like community contributions, building a wiki, exclusive sections on the website, etc.
Fairies vs Tentacles is ONLINE!
on October 7, 2019
Hello everybody and welcome to the official fairies vs tentacles website!
I bought the host and domain on the 4th in hope I would manage to get it all done in time for FvT’s 5th anniversary, and here we are!
You can consider the website to be in a kind of Beta right now. The entire comic archive has been uploaded, the comment system work, the user subscription work, the RSS sub works, and we have some bells and whistles such as the page dropdown menu, and the ability to navigate the comic with your keyboard, by clicking on the image or by swiping left and right on mobile, but there is MUCH MORE to do.
Here’s a list of some upcoming features and content:
-Character listing for every comic pages
-Links to download packs
-More sections such as the dark forest entries, bonus art and character sheet,etc. The character questions also need to be fully uploaded
-Link/embeds to other important places such as the discord server, the patreon, picarto, etc
-Visual upgrades, such as adding personalized fonts, icons and buttons.
-Mobile-friendly optimization. The website work fine on mobile, and the comic is readable but the interface is hard to use without zooming in.
I don’t have a particular order planned for doing these things, I’m just glad I got it all up and running in a few days if anything, and I’m still very busy doing the comic itself, so don’t expect any of this to be done by next week, or even next year~
What matters is that this comic FINALLY has a place to call home. A place with a comic-friendly interface that anybody can access and read at any time.
