TN TV!: December 2007 Video Update & Newsblast

Posted December 31, 2008 at 7:08 PM by Threeboy

December was a big month for TrueNuff TV! as we ramped up our productions to a new lofty goal of at least three new videos per month. One big sketch release, one smaller sketch or feature release and a monthly vlog styled "video update" to let you know what we're up to. We discussed that plan amongst us for the past few weeks, and rather than wait for the new year we'd thought it'd be better to end this year with a bang!

We've got more big goals for 2008 - more videos, a new site, and a DVD. As Cranston said it last month "More TrueNuff TV! comin' your way"

Thanks for watching, bring on the New Year!

TN Comic: Digest (Nov - Dec 2007)

Posted December 28, 2007 at 3:39 PM by Threeboy

Six months ago TrueNuff Comic set out to return to the world of web comics. We've had false starts in the past but looking at our archives (2007 compared to 2006, 2005, 2004) it seems that we've managed to get the original magic back and throw some regularity your way.

Our server isn't overloading with millions of readers (yet?) but we're happy that we have the readers we have. The readers who post to the forums, email us encouragement and the readers who have been pushing us to come back after over three years of hiatus. Goddamn years man. Years. That's not normal. You guys just don't let things go. Also what's up with Australia? It seems we've got as many readers there as we do here in Canada. All of you are nuts and we love it - thank you.

Thanks for reading, thanks for supporting and thanks for giving a shit about our silly little web comic - it makes us happy.

Big thanks

TN Comic: It's a (Project) Wonderful Life - Advertise on TN Comic!

Posted December 24, 2007 at 12:57 PM by Threeboy

You might have seen the Project Wonderful ad system on other sites. It's a marketplace based advertising system where advertisers can place bids for advertising spots, the highest bid gets the advertising spot for the day. Now you can now bid to have your advertisements show up on TrueNuff Comic starting at a dime a day.

We will probably be replacing the other ads on our site with these neat people driven ones.

Power to the people.

TrueNuff: Clearance Shirts, YouTube and Bloopers 2007

Posted December 22, 2007 at 4:53 PM by Threeboy

We just released our Bloopers 2007 to our site and YouTube. We chuckled quite a bit while we were reviewing/editing this 8 minute monster and hopefully you'll find it funny too. Also on YouTube our "branding options" were unlocked (like an Xbox achievement - *PEW!* *PEW!*) so we decided to pimp up our page!

I've got two extra TrueNuff Gamer t-shirts sized 2XL (double extra large) lying around and I want to get rid of them before we launch SpendMore.ca early next year. They're going for $12 CAD each (shipping not included) and this design will not be re-printed. If you're interested in buying one shoot me an email and we can sort out the deats.

Also if you're interested in some clearance priced "Threeboy" shirts, check my blog for the info. Our new batch of shirts will be available in early 2008, we're hoping Jans or Febs.

We'll be updating you video style next week in our December 2007, peas out.

Love Chicken?

TrueNuff: Donations 2007: Vancouver Boys & Girls Club

Posted December 19, 2007 at 10:30 AM by Threeboy

So the last stop (I think) on this year's TrueNuff donation list is the Boys & Girls Club of Greater Vancouver. The Boys & Girls club is a charitable organization that gives kids access to various programs/activities they may not normally have access to. Even though children shouldn't view our website it doesn't mean we can't help 'em out

I might also be a bit biased to this charity since Jess works for them

A good place to be.

Off Topic: LinkDump: Christmas Shopping

Posted December 18, 2007 at 3:27 PM by J.Rai

I know many of you are too wrapped up in figuring out what verb to put after your name on Facebook now, but it might be to your advantage to remember that Christmas is only a week away.

For those of you still shopping around, here's some things that you may see out there while shopping for... well, better thought-out gifts. (Note: This is a very loose "theme" was thought up after the links were collected. Take from it what you will.)

First off, a questionable context for a cynical statement about debt, or the worst possible progression of the "cute/sexy slogan" trend on too-young girls' clothing? You decide.(1)
Second off, on the video game front, Crysis is an incredible-looking game with amazing graphics and a fantastic physics engine(2). Of course, if you really want to make this $50 games look it's best, you'll need to spend about another $2000 on your computer(3).
I was gonna make a reference to shopping for music, but I didn't want to lost the point of this video in a reference to Kanye West: Comedian Zach Galifanakis lives the thug life in the country(4) to Kanye's "Can't Tell Me Nothin'." I thoguht it was funny.
And for those of you who are all done their shopping already - something to look froward to in Summer - a new trailer for Disney/Pixar's upcoming robo-cutefest Wall-E!(5)

I leave you now with best wishes, and the Wise Words of Mr. Alex Trebek.
