Wallpaper and Print

This new Secret Knots poster is available as desktop wallpaper and print. I put all the desktop wallpapers in a single page called downloads where you can get them donating any amount. If you’d like this illustration on paper you can get it through Imagekind, where you can choose paper, size and framing if you want one. I must warn that the actual size of this file is around 11 x 17 inches / 27,9 x 43,2 cms. (tabloid) so I don’t recommend buying a print larger than that.
It is the first item I’m selling in The Secret Knots, so if you get one of these and are satisfied with it, please let me know (in comments or mail) so i can trust this printing service for further stuff.

I’ve been reading a comic I discovered because they put a link to The Secret Knots. It’s called Dreamlife and it looks really great, you should read it from the beginning. Which led me to ask you, casual or loyal readers, do you have a comic, fiction, art, crafts, etc project you would like to share in the comments of this post? I’d love to know what you do. Probably others too!

I other news: The band Piano magic put a link in their myspace to the comic I made with their song. Because they liked it. How cool is that?

EDIT: This post is still active, people have been leaving great links in the comments, so keep it coming!
I want to add, in case you don’t know, that I’ve got some illustrations over at my livejournal.

Hey, thanks for reading and following The Secret Knots, and welcome to all of you who came through Stumble Upon. Some of you may be wondering when there’s going to be a new comic here, so here’s the thing: lately, The Secret Knots has fallen into a mixture of involuntary hiatus and very voluntary vacations, but this is going to end soon. The involuntary hiatus part has a lot to do with the loss of my computer screen in circumstances of the earthquake that happened some weeks ago here in Chile. But new stories are coming soon, so I want to ask you for a little more patience while I work things out. If you feel like giving a helping hand with this, you can donate any amount of money using the paypal button I’ve put here at the sidebar, and download a Secret Knots wallpaper for your desktop. I’m very grateful for the support I’ve already received and also for the comments and messages from people who are still discovering this comic. I’ll be notifying about updates through the usual means: rss feed, twitter and livejournal.

Bonus news: this is me answering the questionnaire devised by Paul Grimsley for his site In To Views.

Larry Latham from the comic Lovecraft is Missing features The Secret Knots in an interesting blog post about somber places of the web. There’s a fair amount of links to check out.

The Secret Knots is now part of Koala Wallop! There are forums there (including a forum for this comic), and brilliant comics such as Perfect Stars, Order of Tales (and Rice Boy) and Bear and Kitten. These are visually eloquent comics, and reading them will undoubtedly improve your day.

Yamara.com likes the Secret Knots: they put it up there in NÂº1 of their top five of Comics You Should be Reading. Thanks! I’m working to finish the last instalments of ‘Unspeakable’ and I hope it’ll reward the patience of those who have been following the story. Don’t forget that you can subscribe to the rss feed using the button in the sidebar, or add me as a Livejournal friend to get news about new comics and the ocasional rambling.

Changes and tests

From now on, Newbs from Perfect Stars is hosting this website, which is really great. So this is me tapping the microphone and testing things: i’ve uploaded a test comic directly to the archives. It is actually a repost of an old comic from my long abandoned blog but maybe you haven’t read it: it’s called “secret floor” and it’s here.
Right now i’m drawing all the rest of the “Unspeakable” comic in order to post it with regularity once it’s finished. I think it’ll worth it. As always, thanks for visiting and reading, and hello! to everyone who didn’t know the comic.

Anne Thalheimer from Fleen includes The Secret Knots in her webcomic finds from 2007. Also, webcomics.com add it to their list of featured comics. Thanks!
