That's an easy guess, from the context of the thread, but it's not really something that's coherently stated in the quoted sentences, though. That might be the quoters' fault as much as it could be the quotee's, to be fair, but the tone of the quote doesn't exactly foster fairness in my soul.

Unless the "having something worth buying" part is what's supposed to convey the meaning of "making money from your art." It really doesn't convey it well, though.

Those are two separate things.

The implication is that merely making money from your art does not make one a "sellout".

Okay, that makes sense now. Thanks. My critical reading skills must be slipping, or something... Normally I can make it through Tycho's stuff without trouble.

While I understand that Webcomic, when does it stop getting paid to draw a comic and becoming a sell oiut?
