Hi Cindy, hope you are feeling better! :)
Do you know if the Christmas Holiday Collab is still held this year. I remembered you told me registration is in august. I can't find the thread in the forum and I don't know who else to ask.

Oh goodness! I haven't been online since JULY! @A@

Sorry for being M.I.A. I spent the time away due to pregnancy and currently there's no holiday plans that I know of. I won't be able to host anything this year due to having a baby at that time \(@A@)/

However, there's usually fun secret santa events in the forums that happen around the holidays, or for sure, feel free to host your own holiday fun! Get all your buds involved and make something special. That's the best thing about it. ♥

Hi everyone,

Oh my, I've been away for a while. Sorry for the absence, I've been dealing with a lot of stuff recently. My days are mostly a lot of sleeping and nausea. However, I'm hoping that I'm finally reaching the end of all the nausea within the next few weeks. And then it'll be smooth sailing for the rest of the year. :D

As for Oops, there's still a few guest comics to share (sorry for skipping this week's posting day). Sometime in July we'll start posting rebooted pages of the first issue for everyone to see (sorry for not knowing an exact time frame). This week coming up, Jeramy and I will be traveling to Chicago for this year's ALA Conference, and it's going to be awesome! I'm hoping I'm not sick the entire trip, please send me your good vibes to make it through.

I'll definitely give a full report on the show's awesomeness, complete with fun pictures, when we get back. :D

Sorry again for my absence. Tomorrow another great guest comic will post. Thank you for your patience! ♥

Glad to know you'll be feeling better soon, and safe travels to Chicago. I visited it once and it's very similar to Hollywood movies, haha.

Hi guys,

Wow, lots of stuff happening on Tapas.

Heads up, we're still staying here on Tapas. This isn't the first time we've seen crazy drama storms from Tapas and more than likely it won't be the last. Despite that, I think there are benefits to staying. Like all of you guys first! And it's encouraging that with each kerfuffle, the staff does attempt to correct it.

However, there are other places you guys can follow Oops if you do wish to read off Tapas:
http://OopsComicAdventure.com
https://www.patreon.com/bePatron?u=286024&patAmt=1
http://www.webtoons.com/en/challenge/oops-comic-adventure/list?title_no=27133
https://www.comic-rocket.com/explore/oops-comic-adventure/from/

Or the list of links under the profile on the left side over there.

If anyone needs to talk about the situation feel free to leave a comment below. I'm here if you need to talk.

Also heads up, I'm currently dealing with other pressing real life stuff outside of Tapas which has left me little time to make sure episodes are scheduled in advance. So updates might be a bit inconsistent.

Also TBH this is the first I'm even seeing of this ToS stuff. XD Unfortunately I had a lot IRL to even notice.
Potoo Gryphon
Potoo Gryphon creator May 20, 2017
Yeah, being a mod on the forums, sometimes the staffers will give us heads up on events or in this case the true intentions behind the clause. It wasn't put there for malicious reasons. There were good intentions however the wording could of used more details. No matter what, creators still own their work, it was there for the few creators that may get publishing deals. Tapas was saying with that clause that creators could approach them first inorder to get possibly a better offer or use their offer as a counter offer to the publishers and see if they can't get an even better offer. They mentioned how they've seen a lot of creators get locked into bad deals and wanted to give an alternative. The clause would have only effected a small number of creators however it's understandable some got scared and angry at the vague clause and it's also reasonable for those that are unhappy to leave. "Why stay someplace that makes you angry?"

So I get both sides, it's really unfortunate all around. The clause is removed so that possible bargaining chip for some is gone, and staff/artist relations are stained, and I've even seen a lot of hurt readers upset that creators they've tipped a bunch of earned coins to just leaving. This too will pass eventually. (︶︹︺)

hmmm, thanks Cindy for the clear up ....when ever someone starts a complaint with a rant I'm immediately suspicions they are pedaling for click bait. Tapas has yet to give me reason to doubt their intentions so I never though of leaving.

hope you solve your IRL problems and we can see more awesome stuff from you :3 take care ^u^

this said Tapas' intentions sound nice, I've been looking for places to publish with a company not self publish and the deals are horrid indeed.

Good to see you'll remain here, for the time being at least. I'm also gonna stay and see what happens since this community is the primary reason why I love this site.

Happy to see you stay. I love reading here. This place is not only about reading comics, it's about being a part of a community that shares your love and enthusiasm for them. I am sorry to see Tapas put their foot in their mouth like that with such poor choice of words. I think there isn't one author in my list of 300 comics that hasn't said they've lost their confidence in Tapas. Such a shame. Not to mention the ones that they left already or about to leave shortly :-(

Hi guys!

LOTS of stuff going on over here. Tonight I just finished the brand new cover of Oops Graphic Novel Vol 2 and posted it for Patrons to see. If you'd like to see all the cool extras I post over there, along with early access, desktop/phone BGs, and concept art check us out on Patreon. $1 unlocks all goodies or pledge extra to help support us. ♥

https://www.patreon.com/OopsComicAdventure
(sneak peak of about 1/10 of the cover below)

The new Oops Graphic Novels are going to be AWESOME! We finally have a ISSN for the series making it easier to get into stores, schools, and libraries. Volume 1 is a nice sized book of about 86 pages containing all of issues 1-3 plus extra content at the end. Volume 2 a hefty 112 page in full color containing all of issues 4-6 and more extra content at the end. SO EXCITED!!!

Come June 23-26 Jeramy and I will be tabling at the ALA Conference in Chicago. ALA is an AMAZING book school geared towards librarians. It's seriously more stunning than any comic convention we've ever tabled at. I'm both nervous and excited at the same time.

And for the next two months, I'll be posting fun content to the series twice a week. Q&A strips on Wednesday and Guest comics from talented volunteers on Friday. Thank you to all the awesome artists that provided guests comics. With their help, I'm able to focus on preparing the next issue to post online as well as prepare for the big ALA show while still consistently posting to the series. THANK YOU GUYS!

The next issue we'll be posting is the remastered prologue issue that'll replace the outdated and awkwardly out of place art style issues 1 & 2. Are you guys ready to see Oops with his hate back on again? lol

How are you going doing? What do you think of the new Tapastic site update? :D

Oh my goodness! That's a terrible problem to have. When stuff like that happens it for a moment makes me wish I was renting again so a landlord would fix the problem ~_~; Aw, I hope it didn't cause too much damage.

Yeah I'm renting....the University still hasn't fixed it yet...it's been over 2 weeks...but they gave me the key to the next door apartment house so I can use bathroom there. This reminds of of East Europe...I've been 3 years in the USA and I can't say I see much difference. Heheh.

Anyway fanart should be done soon, cyndirfoster@gmail.com , right? :D

No new Oops today. Jeramy and I had a long ago friend from college drop in on us and I'm not getting anything done.

Will update next Wednesday.

Happy Be-lated Woman's Day and so much respect if you participated in the Woman's strike today as well.

Happy Valentine's Day EVERYBODY!

Consider yourself hugged on this day. :BIG HUG:

Over on the Tapastic Forums, Jonny from J-man ( https://tapastic.com/aspiderjonny ), hosted another fun holiday themed art exchange.

For V-Day the theme was blind dates. OOooo!!

What kind of date do you think Oops would have?

Well, I received a lovely strip from Eicue!
Dubravka from No ( https://tapastic.com/episode/303892 ), took Oops on a lovely date, attached below. So sweet! Friendship is all Oops truly wants. ♥

I did two comic strip dates. One where Oops goes on a date with Fawn from Joanne Kwan's Demon House, and another with Oops on a play date with Scott from Koreantaco's JODDAS VAPD.

You can see both of those strips on the Extra Fluff series: https://tapastic.com/series/Extra-Fluff

Have a fantastic love filled day today, whether it's with your own self conscious or with friends, family, or partner. ♥
