So, I recently rotated my banners and stuff on some of the sites I host Verboten on. Smackjeeves is one of those sites. The updated banner is a smaller, cut up version of this: [link] (Its the Ulysses pic I uploaded not long ago with the heavy black/white contrast). The next day, I went to check my profile out, and noticed that I jumped from from about 50 fans to near 70. I was shocked that so many people started following the comic in such a short time (I usually average like, two new fans a month, if that) and initially attributed it to the new banner.

Then I looked, and realized that Verboten had been spotlighted. Not really a huge deal I guess, since SJ rotates their spotlighted comics with fair frequency and spotlights multiple comics at once, but the other two major comics hosted on Zibaricon (A Loonatics Tale [Rebecca Burg and Rick Fortner] and Strangers and friends [Rebecca Burgess]) had been spotlighted before, so its cool to finally join that rank, I suppose. And having a well of new readers is always nice.
