My new comic strip Ding! is live at its new home over at Crispygamer.com. You can see Ding Tuesdays and Thursdays in full color so set your bookmarks.

Ding! is filling in the gaps between my buddy Aaron Williams new comic Backwards Compatible. Aaron’s strip runs M,W,F. Also in full color. It features the staff of the Crispy Gamer website.

Crispygamer.com is still in Beta for the moment. But these guys are giving Aaron and I paying gigs making cartoons and that kind of patronage deserves to be supported. So bookmark Crispygamer.com and check it out for the latest in video game news and reviews. These guys want to bring you some honest and helpful info. I think you’ll like it.

I got some help from the girls over the last couple of days completely re-arranging my studios. Now that Kris has moved into a home office, they felt it was time to reclaim the extra space. And boy did they do a great job. They turned that office into a killer workspace.

I took some pics and uploaded them to flickr. Not many. It’s not a big place.

They say that life is what happens while you’re busy making other plans. This time last year, the plan was for this office to be a place of collaboration…but life had other plans. And that’s okay. That’s life. But I had not adjusted the space to reflect those changes and I think it was taking its toll on me. Making me feel down instead of productive.

Big thanks to Angela and her sister Ashley for helping out and giving Toonhound Studios the woman’s touch it obviously needed.

Kris and I were interviewed today by the local CW affiliate and will be appearing this Thursday on Channel 33 CW News at Nine. Reporter Barry Carpenter and his cameraman Paul Riggs came out to the studio today and filmed us talking and working for about an hour. Pictures on Flickr.

Paul is the reason we’re getting this opportunity. He’s a fan and told Barry about us. They took some B-roll of the animated series and said a clip of that might get on TV too. So that’s exciting. Maybe someone at the CW will see a clip and decide “Hey! We need that on the station, right after One Tree Hill.”

We do need help with something: capturing the newsclip digitally. The station, for legal reasons, can’t give us a DVD of our segment. I can record it using Tivo, but I don’t know how to then transfer from my Tivo to any other digital format. Can anyone in the area help us with this? We would love to be able to keep hold of that. I’m just not set up to rip stuff off my Tivo? Anyone in the DFW area that’s set up to do this? Let me know.
