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.

You May Need to Refresh this Page

If you're still seeing last week's comic, you may need to hit the refresh button. I've been having some minor issues recently regarding new comics not automatically showing up on some browsers. This seems to mainly effect Firefox. The old comic on the front page seems to stick in cache longer than it should. Chrome browsers seem to show the new page just fine. I haven't tested any other browsers yet. Regardless, just a simple refresh of the page should show up the new page if you can't see it. That goes for the preview for the new voting incentive as well. I'll look into figuring out a way to stop Firefox from still showing the old comic upon updating in the future.

Pluggin' Yosh!

Sage over at Yosh! Saga wanted me to let you guys know that he's currently running a raffle / donation drive in order to raise funds to attend NekoCon in Virginia, Nov 4th. If any of you would like to support a fellow webcomic artist, feel free to take a glance at his site.

We're Back!

Hey guys! Thanks for sticking with me. I know it's been quite a long 1 1/2 weeks, but I've finally returned, and with a new update for you. Hawaii was fantastic. I had a really nice time with my Japanese extended family and was able to do a great many things I'd never done before. Some of these things included: parasailing, snorkling, and jet skiing. All and all, it was a very enjoyable experience. But now it's time to buckle down and get back to what I love most: drawing!

In less fortunate news, the day I arrived back home I was terribly ill from the flight. I must have caught a bad bug from the plane, because I was bedridden for the first day of return. Some homecoming, eh? It's partically the reason why I had some trouble getting the comic rolling again this week. I'm still fighting off the effects of the infection, but hopefull I'll be back to 100% soon. Don't worry, it isn't nearly as bad now as the first day; and no cold can keep me down for too long. All and all, it's good to be back.
