[quote="FSURobbie"]Hi Folks, So I know this is a bit off the beaten path for uF but I am doing the artwork for a comic submission for the Small Press Idol competition. My partner and I have made it to Round 3 (out of 4 rounds) but we need public support to continue to move forward in the competition. Let me back up a bit though... Small Press Idol is an online competition for the independent comic book community. The competition consists of 4 rounds and the final winner wins a lump sum, an action figure based off of their main character, and a publication contract for their comic. Voting for the competition is two fold: first contestants must get two of the three judges to vote Yes on the entrant advancing to the next round. Next contestants must garner enough of a public vote of support to show the book has a significant enough following to warrant it moving forward. This is where I need you wonderful folks to come in and, hopefully, offer votes of support! My entry, Cohort, has made it through to Round 3 but we desperately need votes of public support. To do so is remarkably simple, all you need to do is join the site's forum (free to use) and then go to our thread and vote that you support it by clicking the appropriate radio button! Voters can vote once per day for as long as the round is open. If I only had 10 people who voted for my team's entry daily that would make a HUGE difference. Obviously, I don't expect you to vote blindly and if you prefer another title over mine than just don't vote! :wink: Hopefully the wonderful community here at uF will lend my team a hand and help us move on to the final round and into a publication contract! For those of you who feel so inclined you can register with the forum at the following URL and vote, DAILY, for Cohort: [url=http://www.smallpressidol.com/join.htm?redirect=http%3A%3Aslash%3A%3Aslash%3Awww.smallpressidol.com%3Aslash%3Astart.htm%3Fredirected%3D1]Small Press Idol Forum Registration[/url] Then, once registered, you can vote for my title at the following thread: [url=http://www.smallpressidol.com/forum/topicview/misc/round_2_cohort.htm]Cohort by Ronald Montgomery and Robbie Smith[/url] Also, those of you on Facebook can become a fan and enter for a chance to win cool prizes, like a free sketch by yours truly. Become a fan here: [url=http://www.facebook.com/pages/Cohort-Comics-for-Small-Press-Idol-2010/107382769284695]Cohort on Facebook[/url] Regardless of whether we win or lose, thanks for reading this and for any support you can provide!

Hi Ebook,
Thanks for the vote, I really appreciate it! So far Ronald and I have been working on Cohort since early January. A lot of that work is unseen as it has been spent on drafting and redrafting the story and the characters, but it has been a pretty steady second job so to speak.
As far as producing the final book, I'm not sure exactly how long it will take in the end but I usually average about 2 comic pages (4-6 panels) a week. I could crank out more but the full time job I normally work mixed with the time restraints of everyday life greatly cut down the amount of free time I have to work on the comic.
If I can keep up that rate of speed though it should only take 2 weeks or so to get the 4 pages for Round 3 drawn and then they will be off to our new inker/colorist to finalize for posting.
Thanks again for the feedback and voting!

Rose,
Thanks so much for voting, I really appreciate it. Comcast dropped the ball this weekend so I was unable to get online but thanks so much for taking the time to check out our comic and vote!
Caseys_Mom,
You continue to rock like no other.

Yep- today is the LAST DAY TO VOTE.

Thanks for the answer. I'll register and vote. And I guess the clown town guys are great for helping Robbie - I just didn't like their submission this time
edit: I registered and voted. Robbie is currently in 5th place and needs some vote. Try to help him out guys. Registering is painless, you do have to confirm the email - but that is it.
I think tomorrow is the last day to vote: so vote for Robbie!!

Rose- you do have to register to vote. They ask for a valid e-mail, but you do NOT have to check it to verify it, (at least it doesn't seem like you do). But you wont get any spam or junk mail from the site. It's just a forum.
Also, the Clown Town group is actually helping Robbie's comic by promoting them at the Heros Con this weekend.

good luck
I downloaded the pdf a few times. but I think I have to register at that site to vote? Is there another way to vote without registering?
By the way, I think that clown cartoon by one of your competitors, which is currently in first place,despite 2 of the 3 judges voting no, is terrible.
Good luck Rob, I hope you make it to the next round!

Thanks so much Z, life has been a bit crazy on the other side of the keyboard the last few weeks, I appreciate everything you have been doing for us!

Quick update... Robbie's comic is having to fight tooth and nail for position. They are doing really good, but they have one pesky competitor that they really need to pull ahead of, and stay ahead of. Only the top three get to go on to compete in the last round. So they REALLY need all the votes they can get. The voting is done EVERY DAY.
Also......
Just in case some of you don't already know:
Cohort Comics can be found in these places...
Twitter
MySpace
Facebook
VOTE HERE

FYI- You can also click on the comic images and be able to download the full size images in pdf format. They will also use the number of times a comic is downloaded to help in their final decisions. So, it would also help alot if you download the zipped pdf
