Tip #6: Home Page Glory!

by toonup

Warhol - happy: HI EVERYONE! EVERY DAY YOU CAN FIND THE TOP STRIPS OF THE DAY HERE.
Warhol - explaining 2 hands: BUT WHO DECIDES WHICH ONES ARE THE BEST? HOW DO THEY CHOOSE?
Craig - talking2: WELL, ANDY, THAT DECISION IS MADE BY THE TOONLET STAFF EVERY NIGHT.
Craig - happy: ONCE WE HAVE OUR DECISION, WE PUT THEM UP FOR THE NEXT 24 HOURS.
Warhol - explaining1: BUT I'VE MADE A LOT OF TOONS THAT NEVER MADE THE TOP SPOT. WHAT GIVES?
Craig - happy: GOOD QUESTION. LET ME TELL YOU WHAT WE LOOK FOR IN A TOP STRIP.
Craig - smiling: #1 WE WANT FUNNY STRIPS, BUT NOT JUST JOKES. STRIPS BASED ON REAL LIFE CAN BE HILARIOUS.
Warhol - surprised: MY STRIPS ARE FUNNY AND YOU DON'T CHOOSE THEM!
Craig - talking2: WE WANT STRIPS THAT ARE FUNNY TO MOST PEOPLE. WE DON'T GET INSIDE JOKES.
Craig - pointing: #2, EXPRESSIVE ORIGINAL CHARACTERS RATE HIGHEST. WE LOVE SEEING YOU REALLY USE THE TOOLS.
Craig - talking: #3, KEEP IT SHORT! A GREAT 3-PANEL TOON WILL ALWAYS BEAT A GREAT 12-PANEL TOON.
Craig - thinking: HMMM, #4, GOOD SPELLING, GRAMMAR AND PUNCTUATION ALWAYS HELP.
Craig - whoops: #5, WE’RE OPEN-MINDED BUT STRIPS THAT ARE OVERLY OFFENSIVE OR INSULTING USUALLY DON'T GET IN.
Warhol - What?: ANYTHING ELSE I SHOULD KNOW?
Craig - statement: WE'RE HUMAN. SOMETIMES IT JUST COMES DOWN TO PERSONAL TASTE.
Craig - smiling: DON'T BE DISCOURAGED IF YOU HAVEN'T MADE TOP STRIPS YET. YOU'VE GOT 365 CHANCES!
