Most help artceils on the web are inaccurate or incoherent. Not this!

Don’t touch Platinum Studios! They are seriously crooked, as has been proven time and time again. Just say no. Google things like “Platinum Studios payment” and “Platinum Studios contract” for the dirty details.

I’ve never really checked out Wowio–other than downloading a few of The Dreamland Chronicles when I can–but I have a deep respect for them…I like the thought of it being free to download them, and someday I hope to put up some of my own work…(I hope they continue with what they’re doing.)

But I can understand if they don’t have the sponsors…I was wondering how they were able to pay so many publishers–it really amazes me that they paid out of their own pocket. (You don’t see things like that too often these days.)

The ability to read books online is a bit different than just viewing the comic. Among other things, you are able to select page size, and selecting the large page size allows many details that aren’t readily visible in the original online version of some of the books I’ve looked at recently to be easily seen.

As long as they allow free online viewing that is better than the original, it MAY be worth getting involved.

Do you know if your animations would be supported on the online preview w/o your having to redo them, or would they only work in PDF format?

Wow, they paid out of pocket? Thats amazing! I really hope they go free again, my kids really love the comic, but I am still a little reluctant to point them directly to your site. I know you take pains to make it all age freindly, but the first time they click a link to “Top Web Comics” then it will be just a few more clicks to webcomics I dont want them to see….
Thanks again for keeping it free though, I really appreciate your view on this.

I love and respect Wowio for everything it’s been doing. I wish it goes worldwide and I can wait… It’s hard, as I want to read many books, but I can stand a little more. I hope Wowio get enough sponsors so it will never more have to pay from its owners pockets. (It’s owners have a huge sense of duty and honour).
