"Artists need to make money to eat and to continue to make art. Artists used to rely on middlemen to collect their money on their behalf, thereby rendering themselves innocent of cash-handling in the public eye. Artists will now be coming straight to you (yes YOU, you who want their music, their films, their books) for their paychecks. Please welcome them. Please help them. Please do not make them feel badly about asking you directly for money.” -Amanda Palmer

Lileks forum is up here..  Relevant portions of this thread have been split and posted there.  

Have at it.

I made the one lonely search engine vote, but that's not really accurate. I somehow got to Achewood through Red Meat and Maakies, I think. And only then on to Goats, WiGU, DS, etc.

I didn't vote, because "I forget" isn't one of the choices.  As advertising folks know, you've got to give people a certain number of "impressions" of a product before it sinks in at all.  It could have been some other comics site or board, or it might have been someone's blog.  Could well have been Lileks, a daily read for me.  I do remember checking Achewood out a couple times and being baffled, before it clicked with me.

Goats.com, here: technically not a Dumbrella site, but I figured it was close enough for the polls.


Double-Ditto for me.

I found it from drew's website, I think, and one of my friends pointed it out from that site after I'd shown him the drew archives. I think drew is/was part of the dumbrella community.
