Our Indiegogo funding drive is NOW live:
https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/drunk-duck-webcomics-improvement-drive/x/4410947#/
Help fund us there, offer your services for a perk (commissions etc), or just help us spread the word!
FINALLY Drunk Duck is on the way to improving! But we really need your help, the help of our fabulous community of creators, readers and contributors to help make DD the great site that it SHOULD be.
I've set up this Indiegogo campaign in order to pay for a programmer to add features to the site and squish the annoying bugs. You can even suggest your own ideas for new features to add or bugs you'd like fixed.
DD is 100% controlled by its own community now, no corporates are holding us back, getting in the way and slowly killing us anymore. There is NOTHING in the way of us making improvements and becoming great again. Help us fix one of the very oldest and best webcomic hosting community sites on the internet.
We'll add more perks for donors as we think of them as as we get artists to agree to them like commissions, cameos in comics, custom wallpapers, sketch cards, original donated art and so on.
You can already get cool stuff like your own Quackcast interview, Ads in our Project Wonderful space, Mentions in the newsposts, your very OWN featured newspost just promoting you alone and much more.
Also let us know if you have something you'd like to donate as a perk!
HELP US FIX DD!

Much appreciated GJ!

I did my bit. I did as much as I can stretch at present but I think it's worth it. funding is going well, only a few days in and over halfway.
Ozoneocean at 10:19PM, Jan. 21, 2016
Thanks Hippie!
HippieVan at 3:40PM, Jan. 21, 2016
I've added it! :D
HippieVan at 3:33PM, Jan. 21, 2016
@Ironscarf: We will gladly take your commission! Thanks so much! This thing is running for another 58 days or so, so I'm sure we'll be taking offers of perks for a while still.
Ironscarf at 2:58PM, Jan. 21, 2016
Am I late to the party? If not, put me down for a unique solo guitar improvisation, inspired by your comic, or character, or trousers etc. Alternatively, I could just do a commission!
HippieVan at 11:16AM, Jan. 21, 2016
@Maskdt: Would you do full colour, or black and white?
KimLuster at 9:16AM, Jan. 21, 2016
Well I chose a printed DD anthology as my perk! Looking forward to getting that in the mail!!
Ozoneocean at 7:42AM, Jan. 21, 2016
So to give away books It'd have to be the purchase price plus a donation plus postage? I think we coulld work that in, it'll be a slim margin but every bit helps! I will add the next range of perks over the weekend. This whole thing gets a bit overwhelming to organise.

I could do a b/w (inked) commission. (I'm afraid I don't have the time for colors these days.) The buyer would get a hi-res scan, and I could send them the piece by post too (note that I'd be sending from Germany though). Also, maybe we could give out a Heroes Unite Archives book? Or a set of Heroes Alliance books? However, I'm afraid couldn't personally pay for these -_- The HU Archives book is $30 for almost 300 pages (http://www.indyplanet.us/product/79774), the set of HA books (issues #1-7) would also be $30.
Ozoneocean at 3:51PM, Jan. 20, 2016
Yes, it's still open :)
maskdt at 2:11PM, Jan. 20, 2016
Hmmm...if it's still open, I could offer some artwork.
Ozoneocean at 7:47AM, Jan. 20, 2016
Thanks guys! Anyone else able to offer their services or artwork? I'm adding perks now. I'll set about promoting them all tomorrow.
PaulEberhardt at 6:24AM, Jan. 20, 2016
@HippieVan: Exactly! I might as well have called it a commission, only I thought it prudent to be a bit more specific so as to make absolutely sure that whoever purchases it will get it in a reasonably short time. But I'll basically draw anything, except for political propaganda and hardcore porn. It'll be in full colour and may include a background, but I'll leave that up to the purchaser as well.

If the scripting isn't an ideal perk, sign me up for digital commissions.
ironhand at 11:38PM, Jan. 19, 2016
I've very much grown up with The Duck, so will contribute as much as possible. As a perk - I will be happy to script a 5+ Page story of someones choosing (they can give a very simple idea, be it something original or something from their comic). I'm not sure if I'd be able to draw the script due to how busy I am, but I'm certainly willing to try or offer it to another artist as an even-extra perk. Keep me updated as I may not keep watch as frequently as others.
Ozoneocean at 7:00PM, Jan. 19, 2016
That's amazing Fallopian! We'll add that as a perk! :D
fallopiancrusader at 5:44PM, Jan. 19, 2016
I'd be happy to do a commission as a perk.
HippieVan at 5:23PM, Jan. 19, 2016
@PaulEberhartd: That would be great! It certainly can't hurt to offer it as a perk, anyway - if no one buys it you needn't do the art so there's no real risk imo. Are you thinking you would do a custom piece of art for whoever purchases it?
PaulEberhardt at 3:12PM, Jan. 19, 2016
Of course I contributed at once. If you think anyone's actually going to pay for it, I'll do a custom sketch too, like fan art for someone's comic or some crazy critter or something. I'm quite busy at the moment and it might take a while for me to get it finished, but since it's for a worthy cause...
HippieVan at 1:52PM, Jan. 19, 2016
We appreciate every little bit! <3 Thanks, guys!
usedbooks at 12:43PM, Jan. 19, 2016
I'd contribute a perk, but I don't have anything really worthwhile. Giving what I can and spreading the word.
ashtree house at 10:56AM, Jan. 19, 2016
I'll be contributing!! I'm excited for changes, change is always good!
KimLuster at 10:06AM, Jan. 19, 2016
Nice! I'll certainly contribute - lets go see how much! ;)
HippieVan at 9:59AM, Jan. 19, 2016
Thanks for pointing that out, Stellar! I will fix that ASAP.
