I won't even go there with Koinup, they claim they are about supporting novice artists but really it's all cliquish and they only recognize professional and those they are friends with.

I'm not trying to hate, because I've been done with the site for about a year now, however, this comic contest just brought all that bad residue back to the surface. If you enter, Looker, I wish you the best.

Your biggest fan,
Noel
