WebComic Planet and Frumph.NET together again.
on June 9th, 2010 at 5:44 amAs most of you have undoubtedly noticed, WebComic Planet now directs you to the main Frumph.NET site (my home on the web). That is because I have been graciously given back the responsibility of running it. I have revamped the listing site software and need to start re-adding / verifying all the sites on it again, which are now called “showcase”‘s. The whole image of the list is changing to more of an interaction with users with a commenting system and ratings.
Each listing has the ability to have genre’s, style’s authors, designers, CMS’s and some other nifty tags/keywords associated to each of the Showcases so that searching for comics that are in the same genre or by author is easily done.
Since each of the showcases are basically wordpress-posts we can include galleries and they are easily editable with post thumbnails and more.
I have articles here from the past webcomicplanet, however I do not yet know if I should integrate them back into the site. If you care to comment please do.
There is members only content here.

Welcome back!
I think you should post the past articles on Webcomic Planet. If there’s articles others will find useful.
Woohoo!
Awesome! All hail the mighty Frumph!
Does this mean we might see a conclusion to the War? *hint hint*
I would love to, .. if I had the forum database info. *hint hint* looks like we’re going to have to start from fresh but this time make it more automated
Oh dear does that mean the WCP forum’s dead? I was wondering if it’d be back.
Taversia posted the WAR as ajudicated so far in her blog: http://www.taversia.net/blog/?p=455
I did too, only I re-wrote it slightly to try and make it less confusing for outsiders (since I did not post individual orders): http://epicfail.xepher.net/2010/04/13/webcomic-war-round-2/
So basically we’re just missing the last set of orders, but I’m sure participants could re-post them once stuff is all sorted out.
I know it’ll probably take a while while stuff is ‘transitioning.’
Oh I thought I should probably answer your question on past articles too!
Yes I think they should be integrated, and if it is possible to put them back at their original URLS (as people may have linked to them, particularly the tutorials).
awesome, I thought those were lost! Yeah sure definately, as for seperation of URL’s, i’m not sure at the moment, you see what i was given was an SQL dump and not an XML so I would have to import each and every thing by hand, one at a time.
I do *not* want to do that, I don’t have the time.
Hehe… It’s a good thing Amy and I were saving our progress~!
I too, hope that we might continue soon. <3 At any rate, I am pleased to see that you're back on the ball Phil!!
How does one include themselves in the showcase? I love CP and am looking forward to being part of WCP.
Just jump on the chat and I can give you access to add yours if you like.
