This page provides contact info
for webmasters, publishers, artists, and general feedback
GENERAL FEEDBACK
If
you have critiques, praise, ideas, inspirations, were offended, and so
on... You can e-mail Jeff Swenson .
Feedback may be posted on this site unless you specifically state in your
e-mail not to. And if you're going to send a nasty e-mail, have the guts
to include your name (even a fake name will do). Thoughtful e-mails are
appreciated and I always appreciate people who disagree with me and can
articulate it intelligently without unnecessary malice.
WEBMASTERS
To put the FREETHUNK weekly gag cartoon on your website please copy and
paste the following html:
<img src="http://www.swensonfunnies.com/weekly/freethunk.gif"
width="289" height="300">
Please do not change the size of the gag cartoon within the html.
If you have any problems please do not hesitate to ask questions. Image
will rotate weekly.
AND if you would like
to be neighborly and exchange links please feel free to e-mail me. Even
if you cannot exchange links but think you have a site of interest to
freethinkers please still contact
me. Link-backs are not a requirement with me, only helpful for publicizing
this site.
If you are a webmaster
interested in either hiring an artist on this site or acquiring a small
cartoon archive for your site feel free to send your requests. I personally,
am willing to donate handfuls of my gag cartoon collection to freethought
sites but I cannot speak for every contributor. If you need original art
but aren't sure about affordability I'm happy to give quotes so you can
see where your budget may need to be.
If you are a cartoonist and would like a page plugging your work on this site I am happy to oblige. Your work doesn't necessarily have to be overtly atheistic or naturalistic, but I am looking to recognize cartoonists/comicbook artists that don't mind being known as freethinkers. As individuals we all hate labels, but in this instance I don't think it's a bad thing.
PUBLISHERS
I'm currently interested in print projects since the majority of my time is spent doing work online. Please let me know what your project is and I will get back to you. As far as pay, I'm usually pretty flexible:
1. College papers and other school papers may use previously published cartoons for free.
2. Nonprofits and low circulation or publishing start-ups may use previously published cartoons for free.
3. Commercial publications may offer their standard payrate for artists or if they want to regularly publish Freethunk they can pay a syndication fee of 10.00.
4. Book ventures may offer payment upfront or a percentage of profits. I realize book ventures are risky and that I may not see that percentage so at the very least I would ask for a couple of contributor copies.
5. Commissioned work or exclusive cartoons can be requested at an affordable price. I will give discounts to freethought projects.
ARTISTS/COMIC
BOOK WRITERS SUBMIT
Since I've had a request out for Artists/writers to submit and have received very little response I will simply be using my own network of contacts to produce material this year. I was hoping to get more of a response but I guess this should be expected. There isn't a market yet that can attract good artists. Have to be patient I guess.
