Raphael's Phantoons of the Opera

This one's new, and one I'm particularly proud of:

I saw that on Facebook and it's absolutely beautiful.

I feel like I've seen that piece somewhere before.

Lovely

As I said before, absolutely wonderful.

It's beautiful! No wonder you're proud of it

that is a wonderful piece, I'm always floored by your work (I lurk on deviantArt).

side note: I'm not sure why, but your site hasn't worked completely for me. I'm running off a safari browser and the window will come up, and then the menu will just continually re-load.

Unfortunately, the same thing just happened to me with the most recent version of Firefox.

Really? Curious. Christine's Shadow, is it the intro animation in the pop-up window that is in a perpetual loop? It could be an issue with the new Flash Player, but I'd hope not since I'm unable to test it until I get some heavy maintenance done on my computer. Perhaps I should construct an HTML-based site as an alternative. Thanks for the heads-up!

Same thing happens on my Mac (with Safari). Not that that's of any help, I know... but it might be helpful to know as we're probably not the only Mac users visiting your site.

How strange, it works for me on my Mac. I use both Safari and Firefox, they both work.

*GASP* Heaven forbid I'd ever consider designing my site on anything but a Mac!

I've been using Macs since the beginning of time. The site works fine on my Safari and Firefox browsers (although they are the previous versions of them). But I'll definitely look into designing an HTML version. And funneling some money into repairing my computer ASAP...

R.

I use a mac and the same thing happen to me. I normally use firefox but not even safari would load it properly. I have been meaning to tell you but keep forgetting. I first noticed It when I had to turn some one in on Da for stealing your Susan Kay cover.

Alright, I'll put some time in and try to get an HTML version online. If anyone else has any problems viewing the site, you can always email me at raphael@phantoonsoftheopera.com or let me know on here.

Hello. I just tried your website, Raphael, and it worked fine for me. I'm using Firefox version 3.5.3, if that information helps.

As for your work? I've been admiring it from afar for several years now. I envy you your talent.

Works fine for me too now, the menu becomes visible and stays there. Last time it kept re-loading and re-loading.

I love the transaction from the picture of MC and to the drawing!

It's not much, but I've got two T-shirt designs up at my "mostly finished" Zazzle shop. Here's a direct link:

Working on greeting cards, art prints and the 2010 Pin-Up calendar next.

R.

I'll be looking forward to seeing what else you will have for sale. The calendars sound like something I'd like to buy for Christmas gifts...you know, for the phans on my list!

I bought a couple of t-shirts from your Cafe Press gallery a few years ago. Still got 'em, too.

I like Zazzle. I find it easy to use. All you need is a little imagination and creativity, and I think you've got both of those qualities in spades!

I very much like Zazzle; they offer a lot more in terms of range of products. I'll also be using Lulu for things like calendars since they have a few extra options that Zazzle doesn't. The 2010 Pin-Up calendar is on target for a late November release. Only have three more illustrations to go before I start assembling it all.

R.

Once I learned how to embed the fonts in the PDF files, there's been no stopping me on Lulu! I've used it for genealogy books, Civil War books, and...uhm...my fan fiction. I've never had any problems with Lulu; the quality of their products has always been top notch IMHO.

A recent commission has been loaded into the "Phantom Lite 2" gallery -- for those of you who can make it that far into the site!

And for those of you who can't:



R.

Ohh! Nice!!!

Once I get the templates laid out, I should be able to set up an HTML version of the site in short order.

If you're on Facebook, you can also see select images on my Phantoons Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Phantoons-of-the-Opera/124293952783

R.

I'm so looking forward to seeing this pin-up calendar!

Just for the record, I've discovered that I get the continual looping menu problem on your site if I skip the intro, but if I let it run through the intro then everything works just fine. *shrug*

And I am the one who comissioned the drawing! Because I do love Steve Barton...
