I just want to thank you for your work on this project. This is exactly what I was looking for when I started my webcomic a year ago. Once I discovered your theme, I converted over and didn’t look back!

I just want to say that I’m loving this theme. It’s nice to have a high-quality comics theme that’s more or less ready to go right out of the box. I’m looking forward to seeing what future versions have to offer.

i was wondering if i can still use the update or further updates after i rigged the comicpress theme heavily. i mean no backend, just arrangement front end and a lot of visual stuff.

the rigged comicpress is found http://thetikoyplate.com/ , i guess i can still use it if you’ll document the changes, it will certainly help a lot to have documentation.

Hi! Not to be obnoxious, but I was considering upgrading to 2.0 BE when I saw that you were planning to release 2.1. I’d like to hold up on the overhaul until I can go ahead and customize 2.1, instead of making all my changes to 2.0 and then having to add in all the 2.1 stuff later (or do a second customization from scratch). Any chance you’ll have 2.1 out before October?

Tyler, I gotta say I’m incredibly pleased with 2.0 so far, and 2.1 sounds pretty cool, especially widget support. Keep up the good work.

Thanks Tyler, My comic is definitely helped by this great theme you have… I recommend it to everyone who mentions wanting to start their own comic, especially those who are already creating comics but hosting them on some of the other free sites (and sherpa). I don’t think I’ve seen a setup that can beat this one.

Can’t wait for 2.1

Thanks for the suggestion Jim, love your comic.

I’ll add that as a possible inclusion in the next version over in the forum. It would be easy to do a page template to show the last 5 or so comics like that but reading through the entire archives like that will pose a little extra challenge.

Just found this setup a couple weeks ago…I’d go so far to say I’m in love with it (or at least heavily infatuated)

I do have a suggestion (and hopefully I won’t sound like an idiot because this is already a feature and I just haven’t found it yet…) What I’d like to see is some way for viewers to be able to see like a weeks worth of comics all stacked on a single page at full size… We were talking over in the toontalk forums about how some people really like to read a bunch of strips at once without clicking forward and back all the time. I figured this is something I could always do on saturdays just by posting the strips from the week in a larger file, but I thought it might be cool if there were a button that a reader could click and have a set number of previous strips up to and including the current day all appear on a single page.

Just a suggestion. Love the setup, and keep up the good work!

Wow, this sounds great! Only now I’m not sure it I should keep working on my website with the current theme, or wait for the new update. I’ve kind of got it mostly set up. Of course, I’ve been too busy to work much on it anyway, so maybe it’ll work out.

I’d really like to see the tall-comic layout, as my comic is tall and doesn’t quite fit.

Let me just chime in and second that comment about this being VERY appreciated. Thanks for all the hard work! The 2.0 release was pretty great as it was.
