I have tried to make this site
as easy to use as possible. Due to the nature of the internet
(and of copyright) however, there is often some confusion.
I have answered some important questions here and as time goes
by, I will answer more. Common sense, mutual respect and honesty
should suffice if all else fails.
coming soon
Having said all of the above, I will soon be implementing changes
that should make the site much easier to use (and more fun).
This will include a subscription system that will make payment
(for those that need to) far more easy and affordable.

how to get a cartoon
1. Find the cartoon you want.
2. Download the cartoon, see how
to download.
3. Some people may need to pay something, see licenses.
4. Buy a license by adding it to your shopping
cart, see how to buy.
5. Enjoy the cartoon with a clear conscience.
joy
Just to clarify... I am very flattered when anyone likes a cartoon
enough to want to take it home. I'm doubly pleased because it means
my work was not in vain, my little creatures are out there, on the
job. So thank you for your interest and I hope the cartoons bring
you joy.

trust
Cartoonists are usually motivated by passion, rather than for instance,
financial gain. Most cartoonists are poor (but happy...?).
In some cases (not all) I ask for payment for the use of the cartoons.
I have decided not to restrict access to the cartoons however, but
rather to rely on your honesty to pay where it is required. This
is trust. I figure that with an audience that is
mostly christian, the chances of getting some payments are higher
than average.

offence
At best, these cartoons have changed people's perpective on life
(for the better), at other times they've amused, or just broken
the tedium of a page of text. Sometimes the cartoons offend. For
this I apologise.
It may be that the intent of the cartoon is misunderstood, it may
be that there is violent disagreement with the content, it may be
that the tone is perceived to be irreverent or inappropriate. Whatever
the cause, please know that my intent is to strengthen, uplift,
comfort or inspire. There is enough evil and dissent in the world
without deliberately adding to it.
I hope, if you take offence, that you will accept my apology and
view the issue as a symptom, not of malicious intent but of different
perspectives.

internet issues
I have designed the site to work smoothly and quickly on both Internet
Explorer and Netscape. I have even provided a simplified search
page in case the dropdown menus don't work for some reason. This
is the internet though, so there will be occassional problems. These
I will try to fix promptly.
Payment is as simple as I could think to make it. The payment is
facilitated by PayPal, an international
money transfer agency that is trusted by millions around the world.
They have created a relatively simple but very safe model for payment
on the internet, I hope it suits you.

privacy
Your privacy is as important to me as my own. There are
no cookies on this site, no tricks
and every interaction is treated as highly confidential. I will
not pass on any information unless permitted to by you or required
by law.

security
All money transactions are performed through PayPal.
This site has extremely rigorous and tested security measures
in place, it is used and trusted by millions around the globe.
Both my own computer and my host server have standard security
protocols and virus protection in place.

contact

I'm keen to see how people respond to the cartoons. They've been
appearing in church bulletins (mostly without permission) for many
years now and have generally been enthusiastically received.
Now that they are available to the whole world (apart from the
two thirds that don't have access to a phone line) there is a much
bigger and more diverse audience. In time I'd like to add a rating
system and some way for people to tell stories about the cartoons
(that's the thing, cartoons often evoke stories... strange but true).
For now, it's just you visiting, I hope you enjoy your stay.
