Title: The Anarchy In Your Head Multimedia Experience!
Post by: dalebert on September 26, 2008, 10:42 AM NHFT
My team of marketing professionals contracted from Disney came up with the title for this post. A new video produced by Nick of LyfProductions (http://lyfproductions.com) (a.k.a. Coconut here) has been posted to the AIYH Facebook club (http://www.new.facebook.com/home.php#/group.php?gid=44241266280). You have to be a member of the group to view it. It's a very brief (18 secs) collage of comic teasers set to music and will be used as the opening to all the Anarchy In Your Head videos on YouTube. The Facebook club is a great way to stay updated on AIYH news, new comics, t-shirt designs, and such so I strongly encourage you to join the group. You also get to preview the video before anyone else on YouTube. However, if you don't feel like joining, it won't be long before it's available on YouTube as well.

OK, now it's on YouTube. I deleted the other one and replaced it with the one with the new fade out.

I like it.

It gets you wondering what is going on with colorful pics and then tells you where you can go to see more.   :)

It needs to be played a lot of times before people really start wondering, like that ultra classic Rainier beer commercial from the early 1980's.

Hey Anarchy in Head Guy!

I know this isn't the exact thread for my suggestions but I can't seem to find your "comic Ideas" thread.

Anyway, I'm growing sick of people always referring to "The Economy" and "The Environment" as if they are people...so I was thinking if you had a couple guest characters, with the above two names, it might be a possibility that would fit right in and give you some possibilities to play/work with.   Keep up the great work!

It's a new month and the rankings have all been reset on Top Web Comics. Remember that you can vote as often as every day if you remember to. The link is on my website and in my signature on this board. Use it as a reminder to click if you haven't already on any particular day.

You can vote every day on TWCL

The Web Comics List doesn't have votes, but it seems to adjust my ranking based on visits.

You can now support the webcomic by shopping at Amazon. Just use the handy URL below and a portion of the proceeds will go to Anarchy In Your Head.

**Disclaimer: The artist will use the money for Filipino hookers and opium dens.

Kudos to J'Raxis for setting up the forwarding to make these sorts of URLs possible. I highly recommend him for any of your web hosting needs.

For the benefit of those with the beginnings of Alzheimer's, like myself, the Facebook fan club has been added to the AIYH repertoire of convenient, easy to recall links--

Just to give an idea of how powerful your vote is...

As of today, AIYH has 127 votes and is placed at 205 in the ranking (http://topwebcomics.com/?pageid=3) out of thousands of comics. The votes are reset at the beginning of the month and each IP address can vote once a day.

Most likely there are a number of people voting occasionally whenever they remember. Maybe they visit the site and see the button or maybe they see a message I posted and the button in my signature reminds them. But 127 votes can be achieved by only about 6 dedicated fans if they voted every day (127 / 21 days so far in May ). Just 6 more votes by this time of the month would have AIYH in the top 200, or the 2nd page. 446 total votes by now would place us on the front page in the top 100 webcomics. That means roughly 21 dedicated fans voting every day ( 446/21 ) could keep AIYH on the front page!

There have been times when we've been on the front page briefly and there is definite traffic from the TWCL site. It's basically free advertising. So if you wanted to do something to help AIYH but don't want to spend money, this is a way to do it. Anything you can do to remind yourself or encourage your friends to vote every day would be helpful. Anything that drives traffic to the site has the potential to raise revenue through the advertising. And that revenue is crucial for keeping me in the lifestyle to which I've become accustomed, i.e. opium dens and Filipino hookers. If I actually start making money from the site, I will be a lot more likely to ignore that little devil on my shoulder that keeps asking me why I still put so much time into it. Just ask my roommates. Most Weds & Fridays, I get increasingly irritable throughout the day as I struggle with forcing myself to sit down and work on the comic.

Thanx!

As you can see from the handy click-able voting button in my signature right now, AiYH is in the TOP 100 and on the front page of TWC! It will need to continue getting votes daily throughout the month or it will get pushed back down as people continue to vote for the other comics.

http://vote.anarchyinyourhead.com

BTW, you can also mark AiYH as one of your favorites, but unlike voting, this requires you to create a free login on their site.

I have it on good authority (Mark Edge of FTL fame) that if you vote EVERY DAY, you will get 40 virgins in the after-life.

We're still on the front page and in the top 100! I just want to thank everyone who's keeping us there. The vote is very quick and does not require a login or email verification or anything like that. Just click the link and then one more click to prove you're a real person and not some automated voting program.

It's like free advertising. We get steady traffic from TWC.

There's another handy blue voting button right down here in my signature bar.

There's a lively discussion of some of the latest posts over at AiyH (http://anarchyinyourhead.com), both comics and blog posts. I can't remember if I've ever gotten so many comments so soon after posting.

We're in the middle of the Top 10 Causes of Minarchy list. Today I will be posting #6. There are also two recent blog posts that are getting a lot of comments. Feel free to chime in!

The Evolution of In Your Head
July 16th, 2009

Around Labor Day weekend, Anarchy In Your Head will have been around for about 2 years. It's been constantly evolving and changing over that time period. I started it barely even knowing how to draw. It's been a great learning experience for me.

I started with one comic a week on a very loose schedule. I tried to get one out sometime each weekend. Soon after, I set Friday as a date and that helped force me to be a little more disciplined. It started as more of a political editorial cartoon but kind of reluctantly morphed into a comic strip, mostly by pressure of the expectations of others, though that's a change that I ultimately was happy with. Later I added Wednesday comics. Being on a strict twice weekly schedule kept me coming up with new ideas and drawing regularly. The best way to learn, after all, is by doing. But as they said in X-Men, while evolution moves in little steps, sometimes it takes a major leap forward!
