Facebook page for Strangers…because I’m still trying to figure out decent ways to promote the site and as much as I’m as ambivalent to Facebook as the next person, a little “like” button on the main page seems like a pretty unobtrusive way to do things…this is what I’m coding in right now (doing the graphics for it…you’ll see~)
blocklockcity asked: There's definitely an internal logic to strangers' names; does it... extend outward into a conlang, or is stranger nomenclature an isolated thing?
fellcorbie asked: The last question reminded me to ask this - what do the 'tolerance' and 'stability' values represent? I figured they were tolerance of humans and stability of form, but I was curious to know the real meaning.
perfectlycookedpancakes asked: What do the numbers mean as far as strangers go? They're clearly somewhat important considering that each stranger has a specific number(i'm guessing the skipped numbers will be filled in as time goes on and you complete more strangers?)

BTW, if people ever want to interact with me, my AIM is “earthmanimperial”, I keep it on whenever I’m on the computer. Please don’t ever be intimidated to approach me (via email, IM, or whatever)…it seems like a lot of people are intimidated to approach artists online but, please don’t feel that way with me. I don’t care what you draw like or even if you...

I am going to start selling my services as both an inker and as a character designer soon. Posting a little discount here so I can build up a portfolio! I am also more than willing to accept small art/craft trades if you’re interested in either my inking services or my character design skills but don’t have money. I’m more interested in building up a portfolio than trying to make...

Does anyone make or know where I could buy a custom “levitating cat head” plush? Design would be pretty much like the image below. 1 color of short-furred fabric with black & white eyes, small mouth shaped like kana へ. Approx 5.5 inches diameter at widest point. Lightweight but well-shaped design (i.e not a bean-bag); hang-able.
I am not looking to buy right now but this is one...

I’m in the middle of a code/interface update which has stalled site updates for a while…but…I just came up with a new Stranger I can’t wait to write up and draw…I…aaaa
Little headshot for Leupstripes…sorry for the delay! I had this 99% done but wanted to fix some things and got sidetracked by non-computer things before I got a chance to edit. Hope you enjoy and thanks again for the trade~
Sundays are always such a lazy day for me…zzz

fellcorbie asked: Not sure if this has been answered before, but... when there is a Stranger entry with 'information unknown', does this mean you haven't written it yet, or the info is being withheld for some reason? Just curious.
Anonymous asked: I wait for strangers site updates like a homesticker waits for homestuck updates. If you have any idea what I'm talking about then you'll understand, I love strangers a lot!

Editing/compiling/proofreading some poems of mine for a little project…all the while, the following scenario keeps running through my head:
“Mr. Kramer, I’m afraid we can’t publish anything you’ve written and, in fact, will need to ban you from the literary world forever.”
“Oh? And why’s that?”
“Well, it appears that on page 7, you...
Anonymous asked: Even though we don't really talk anymore, I'm still (and probably always will be) extremely inspired and motivated by your intensely prolific output and immense creativity! I'm a HUGE fan of your Strangers universe and I check the site pretty frequently haha, it's just all so cool. I don't know a whole lot about what's going on in your life right now but I hope...

perfectlycookedpancakes said: Oh whoops making weird things into human versions is a pastime of mine IDEAS. This calls for a question though, do strangers have any sort of gender distinction at all? Or would any potential human versions be relatively neutral in appearance? Always male: Hale, Endroni, Ladroni, Ondroni*, Skendrelli*, Smoldroni* Always female: Lindroni, Madradroni*, Ganeshidroni*,...

So I had a dream last night that Strangers had gotten popular online and people were making/drawing/RPing human versions of different Strangers.
…
:3c
Anonymous asked: Strangers site is doing something weird! Not sure if this is a coding error or on purpose but the plurals of some of the strangers appear as es’s etc.
perfectlycookedpancakes asked: If a stranger were to take you to another layer would you be aware of it or would your senses just seem to cease functioning?

Regarding Strangers as 4th-dimensional beings: Maybe I was a bit hasty to describe Strangers as 4th-dimensional beings in the traditional sense; here is the script for the diagram/comic/series of tiny illustrations I plan to create to explain/preface Strangers a bit more. Hopefully it will explain and answer any of the comments people had on my last entry; if not, just let me know.
1. The...

Anonymous asked: I see you posted art for the Es and the Indrene on here but not on the site! Are you planning on updating it with them soon? The Es was one of my favorites on the old site

Anonymous asked: Hi, Felix! Just wanted to say that it's great seeing your work again; reading through your updated Strangers site has been a blast. I have a small question about it though - in the old version of the site, some of the Stranger portraits had roll-over features exposing the inner anatomy; will you be incorporating this same feature into the new site as well? I always found it added an extra bit...

Thoughts of the day
1. I’m trying to get out of the whole “everyone needs to like me all the time” mentality. Because I’m realizing that even though I generally do my best to be a pretty tolerable person and think I succeed most of the time, there’s always going to be someone who dislikes me for whatever reason: whether it’s because of how I look, what I’m attracted to, the...

Serious question: what do you think would be the best way to promote/generate interest in my Strangers site? Any advice and suggestions are appreciated! So yeah, suggest away?
