This is something I have had in mind for some time now. I've had the first 3 panels of it done for almost a year, if not longer. The outline and dialog of the whole thing has probably been done for over a year now.
When going to create the ATTS for this week, I saw this in my project box and thought I should at least finish this comic. It has been sitting for a while because I am not satisfied with the character art on it. I was trying to use the style I've played with on a few S+N characters that turned out really well. It just doesn't fit what I feel like this should look I guess.
However, the logo for this - I am super into it.

Since the launch of TTN in June 2021, I've made every effort to avoid directly requesting financial support to cover the platform's costs. In fact, I've personally covered nearly 90% of the £30,000/$36,500 in running expenses up to this point. I accomplished this by taking on various IT projects and utilizing my own income. However, I've reached a juncture where I must explore additional means for TTN to sustain itself, especially as my external work opportunities have dwindled.
I'm committed to maintaining TTN as a free-to-use platform for the community. I've always hoped that more members would be willing to make a modest "coffee contribution" each month to support our operations. However, it's become increasingly apparent that the prevailing norm is to access platforms for free with the revenue coming from advertisements.
I, too, have reservations about incorporating advertisements, but it seems to be a viable option. In doing so, I'll uphold two fundamental principles: First, individuals who financially support TTN should not be subjected to external advertisements. Second, any advertisements must seamlessly coexist with the platform's content, ensuring they do not disrupt or intrude upon the user experience.
Over the next few days, I'll be exploring different options and determining the best way to integrate them into the platform.
I regret that it's come to this point, but I firmly believe that by keeping the platform accessible to the community, we can offer spiritual guidance to those who may not have the means to contribute financially.
The question many have heard, “How can a loving God allow…?” is no different than the question the serpent asked Eve in the garden. Genesis 3:1,”Now the serpent was more crafty than any beast of the field that the LORD God had made. And he said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden?’ ” Did God really say? Don’t fall into the trap of questioning the sacred word of the Creator. We do need to verify exactly what He intended and we can do so by carefully studying His word in the context of language, culture and history.
