Hey folks...It's finally happened. I've lost my day job. Thank you global financial crisis (I have a lot of words about this situation.....but they all are in russian. And believe me, you don't want to hear the translation).
 So....What's about the Jump Leads in that kind of situation? Simple. Now I need to find a new job and make a living through making a lot of cheap freelance works. That took a lot of time.
 Maybe you've noticed recently that new pages have uploaded with delays. That's all because I almost don't have a free time to draw.

Oh well.....By the way. If anyone of you maybe have in your mind the ideas for guest strips and guest arts....That would be good, because I think that we will need some fillers soon with that kind of BAD situation...

Thank you for reading my sad mumblings.....and excuse me for my bad english (again) Smiley

PS: Page 3 will be tomorrow

Why not put up a PayPal donate button for a while?

Bummer Jjar - wishing you good luck! You've got skills my friend, I think you'll land on your feet.

Hopefully the imminent release of the Jump Leads book will help your finances - strong hint to all fans: buying a copy or two (they make excellent Yuletide gifts) will help to ensure that we get more new and exciting pages. I'll beat up on Ben to finish the setup process...

I'm right there with you. I've been working in the mortgage industry, which is nearly non-existent these days. I'm currently looking for something completely different.

Good luck on the job hunt!

Oh man, that's terrible. Bad luck dude. This economic crisis kinda makes me feel bad for training to be a teacher (if there's one career that can survive a recession...).

Good luck finding a new job. I'd better make sure I do buy that T-Shirt (and the book when it comes out) now.

Johan: PayPal don't currently have a presence in Russia.

Well, I think we can safely conclude that pingbacks are not entirely working at the moment.

Hoo boy, Jjar, I can really, really sympathize. As in, just lost my job today and have no savings because of lingering bills sympathize. Best of luck to you.
