Twokinds Licensing

I get quite a few people from time to time who come up to me to report that one of my images has been 'stolen' by someone else. Usually it's a edited page from the comic, or a recolored image from my gallery here. I just want to set the record straight, so hopefully I can avoid more of these 'reports' in the future.

My public work is hereby covered under a Creative Commons license, unless otherwise stated. You can find it here:

Creative Commons

So, what does this mean? It means, anyone is free to:

  • Share my work - You can save my work, print it out, and show it to other people. You may post it on forums, imageboards, and chatrooms. You could even zip up the entirety of my comic and distribute it as a torrent if you so felt inclined.
  • Adapt my work - This means people are free to modify my work. You may translate the comic pages into another language, recolor something from my gallery, create fan art or fiction of my characters or world, create your own comic or artwork based on my work, etc...

You are allowed to do any of this, so long as you:

  • Provide attribution - You must give me credit as the source. Do not claim my work as your own.
  • Non-commercial - You cannot sell my work, or include my work in anything for sale, unless you make specific arrangements with me.
  • Share-Alike - If you do modify my work, it should also be covered under this same license, or an equivalent license.

This license applies to all my publicly available work. It does not apply to my commercial work, such as comic books and booklets.

So why am I doing this? Because it's how I think it should be. I put out my work publicly for people to enjoy, and I don't get hung up when folks decide to add to or adapt my work in other ways. So this is my official way of proclaiming that I'm cool with that. I am not giving up all the rights to my work, but I am opening up some of it to you.

Delayed Due to Illness

Hey, yeah, sorry about the delay for Monday's comic. I've been practically bedridden the last day or so from a bug that really knocked me off my feet. I haven't had any opportunity to work on the comic until recently. The new comic has been started, but I'm running pretty much completely on meds at the moment. I'll do the best I can. Expect it to arrive on Wednesday.

Server Move Nearly Complete

Well, here we are, on our new private server. 2kinds.com has finally been moved over and twokindscomic.com will be moved over soon. I'm sorry for all the delays and the problems that have come about because of the server issues. I hope that it will all be behind us now. This new private server is still untested, so there may still be problems cropping up in the future. But I certainly hope the biggest issues are over. I hope you will enjoy Twokinds' new home. Meanwhile, now that the server issues are resolved, I will work my best to get a new comic completely and published shortly. With any luck, I think I can have it done and out to you as soon as Friday. Cross your fingers.

Malware Problems and Site Moving

For the last few weeks I have been having a lot of problems with malware infecting the servers that Twokinds is hosted on. Periodically, it will inject an invisible iframe into the code causing problems and virus warnings to appear. It's an easy fix, but annoyingly reaccuring. Unfortunately, this time, I was asleep when it happened, and couldn't respond in time. Google declared the website bad, even after I fixed it. So I've moved the entire website to twokindscomic.com until the problem can be resolved.

But of course this is only a temparary solution. The problem remains that the host I am currently under is no longer secure, with all these virus problems continuously popping up. Therefor, I am preforming a server move now. Twokinds will be leaving ixwebhosting soon, and moving to a hopefully more secure private server from another provider. Expect some downtime as I preform the move.

I formally apologize for all the problems these malware bots have put all of us through. I hope it hasn't put you off from the comic. I will do everything in my power to try and put an end to these issues in the future.
