Looking for webcomic artist posted by: y2klizard
Forwarded Message:
Hi, I was wondering if maybe your site would offer your users/contributors a great chance. Currently I am starting up a web community called
OffBalanced, which was originally designed for a webcomic and a small community. We have changed some of our goals, but still wish to not only off an amusing webcomic to our users and visitors, but to also offer the chance for an artist to take the next step. I was hoping that you would be able to inform your artistic contributors of this great opportunity to start their own comic. We have many admins who wil take care of al of the work with the programming, the artist will be left to do the comic as they wish. With no worries.

Poll Results posted by: Colje
We have finally decided to end the poll after getting 45 days of results. The poll started on August 15th and ended on October 1st. Heres the results from the poll:
Question: How do you feel about Google Ads?
Choices:
They're okay, in un-obstructive places. - 35.1%
I don't really care. - 18.5%
I'd prefer not to see them at all. - 13.1%
They are evil. - 33.3%
There were 2791 votes.
Since there was no real clear answer during the entire duration, the poll was let to run longer then expected. The answer was still not clear, so the Founders have decided to implement the google ads.
If you have any comments about it, please post in our forums
here.
Please vote on the next poll: How do you download the majority of your anime?

faq page posted by: Platinum|Star
We have added a FAQ page that will answer some of the most common questions that most users have regarding Baka-Updates.
This is in no way a complete version of the page. We are always open for new suggestions so if you think that a question and answer that should be included on the page that isn't there right now, please feel free to contact any of us.

Filesizes posted by: Manick
For those of you who have an account, we have a new treat for you. If you put your mouse over the title on the releases page for releases with a torrent, it shows the filesize of that torrent. For now this only works on releases with torrents (as it is automatically parsed)
See here for sample:
