We need your votes! Please vote for ‘Shadowbinders’ on TopWebComics.com

by Kneon on December 12th, 2010

You readers rock.

No, seriously, you guys really do.

We’ve gotten a lot of encouragement over the past few months, and your comments and support really keep us motivated!

So without sounding beggy, I’d like to ask for a little voteage. If you aren’t aware already, TopWebComics.com lets readers vote once per day for their favorite webcomics. The site can offer a great deal of exposure, but it seems to me that all that really counts is the Top 100… anything past the first page is easily dismissed.

Lately we’ve been hovering around the #220 mark. That puts us on the third page of rankings. So I’m asking our readers to take a few seconds every day and vote if you have the time. Getting ‘Shadowbinders’ into the Top 100 would be awesome, and would help expose us to many more readers.

You can vote at this link, or just use the blue banner ad on lefthand side of the page, right underneath the comic.

Again, thanks so much — we can’t do it without your support!

The 2010 Webcomic List Awards

by Kneon on December 4th, 2010

Posted In: Blog

It’s that time again… time for the 2010 Webcomic List Awards.

Without sounding too beggy, we started Shadowbinders in 2010 and I’d like to think our color is pretty good. As such, I’m sure there are at least two categories we’d be eligible for. (Hint, hint, nudge, nudge, wink, wink.)

Any consideration at all would be greatly appreciated.

If you wanna vote this year, click this link.

Thanks a bunch!
