What Just Happened?
So I was happy when Cheer Up, Emo Kid was accepted to Is It Funny Today?, a place where readers can find & rate webcomics daily, with the funniest ones for the day receiving the most exposure. I was thrilled when the majority of the feedback I received was positive, and ecstatic when CUEK started moving up the charts
And then I checked the website during class and noticed it had crapped out. Less than thrilled, I quickly checked No Spring Chicken, and it was up and running, which made no sense to me since they’re hosted on the exact same server.
So I checked the web statistics and . . . Apparently, what crashed our website was a link from Digg.com, and how about 45,000 people had tried to access us all at once. Holy. Shit.
So suffice to say, I’m really happy, and want to give a big thank you for all the support & feedback. I hope I don’t disappoint in the future!

I blew up some of the drawings for today’s strip so you could see the details and stuff.
I might want to put this on a shirt and have the gray wrap around. And the text can be changed to anything!
This one, too! What do you think?

Go for it. Your art style works well with shirts (Low number of colors, not much complex shading, well defined characters, etc).

I'm one of those Diggers. I just wanted to say hi, and keep up the good work! I instantly subscribed, and I'm sure several of my friends will too once they see your stuff. Hilarious. lol
Regarding shirts, I agree with Theaceoffire. Do it.

Hi! I'm really glad you like the strip. : ) At the moment I'm still not sure how to go about getting t-shirts made, but I will for sure let you know in the future if it ever happens ! Thanks so much for dropping by, I hope not to disappoint in the future !!

Im not really 100% sure on how it works, but you could always try using http://www.cafepress.comuntil you find out a better way.
checking my RSS feed in the morning and finding out theres a new comic just makes my day.
Also huge congrats on the success!
Especially when I can relate to it and then Im stuck in this weird moment of whether to feel horrible or laugh… good times!!
Enzo
Thank you so much !!
I've actually looked over CafePress already, considered it, but I wanted to give it a shot doing it myself at first, and kinda get a feel of the process of that works. I imagine it'd be more work but I dunno. . . We'll see aye?
I'm glad you can relate to the strips !! I think it's comforting to know when you're not the only one experiencing something horrible. Thanks for dropping by!

I'd gladly take a "Clone The Bitch" T-shirt any day. Love the comic.
EvanStone
T-Shirts? I'd buy them. Especially the cloning machine and "Clone the Bitch" shirt. I don't recommend CafePress though. They have terrible quality.
EvanStone
Also, I want a "My ex.. LOVES t-shirts" shirt. Or something along those lines.
Anonymous fan
Agreed, that would be awesome.
Enzo
Hahaha! CAPITAL IDEA, MR. STONE. : )
And yeah, I've heard some not-so-flattering things about CafePress. . . I mean, I have bought a shirt from them once but it was a gift (ironically, for my ex) and it seemed to be of a pretty decent quality, but what do I know about shirts? Lol.
I'm thinking of buying a bunch of blank t-shirts and just printing them myself somehow. We'll see.
