    Well you can ask Gribble if he's still hanging around here how to do it.

    Generally you do pay pal or money order to get comics but the thing is, and I can almost guarantee this.  Most people in this community will NOT be making that many purchases on FMG comics for one reason.

    Most of the time these comics can be posted online for the rest of the world to see even if they haven't paid for it.

    The only person who has SUCCESSFULLY sold comics like that is "The Manic" and he seems to be making a nice profit from his commissions, but at the same time he delivers high quality work.  Anything less than Manic quality will probably not net you that much cash, but if you want to give it a shot go for it.

    FMG comics to buy on the internet are a rare breed but there are a few you can buy, not really sure where you can get them though.

    Ok thank you for those answers. So I don't think I'll do it  :-[ I'll let my works free. In fact I asked that after having seen website as "LH-Art" and "Reddy Heart" but if it is true that it too difficult to make money like that I'll not try.

    And to answer for the "LH-Art", I have already tried :
    -Buying mags but as we don't really know what is inside, I found it expensive for anything that we rarely have what we want but it's new way : selling PDF is a great one and I still buy this kind of things.

    -Selling : I already asked him if he wants me to do some works for him to sell them but he answers me that he's not interrested in them  :'(

    That's all folks !!

    Anyway thank you for your responses, I'll keep looking for a job, and as long as I don't have one, I'll keep drawing bad ones that I'll post on DA.

    I've periodically contemplated setting up a site where people could list their stories, comics, art, etc for sale, and get paid via Paypal.  The problem is I'm not aware of any shopping cart e-commerce solution that supports that kind of structure.

    I'll keep looking, though.

    You could try dlsite.com, a digital doujinshi distribution site. They have some instructions on getting started

    how about LHART?

    http://www.lhart.com

    I have been buying their "All Growth" magazine for years.

    The owner has lots of work, and recently he has been converting them into PDF files and selling them for $10.00 bucks a pop.

    I have just recently purchased "Make a Wish", a comic story where a young gal finds herself bullied and on her birthday make a wish to be stronger and bigger. 

    Her wish gets granted….here is a sample pic.

    Yes I know LH-Art and I'd like to do the same thing but when I asked him 1 year ago if he was interrested by selling my artworks he answered that he wasn't  :'(

    I think he is doing a lot better now, you might want to ask him again, send him some samples of your work.  There are other competitors as well.
