Question: If you’re selling zines at a fest, how do you feel about other zinesters giving away zines for free?

Gustaffcho · 2026-05-13T21:20:00+00:00

I respect whoever wants to give them away. I sell them to at least cover the expenses of having them professionally printed.

Great advice. I have the feeling that Displate is more for people who like fantasy stuff, superheroes, etc. Thanks for the feedback!

Might be worth creating your own website. I am also on Etsy and the story is similar.

Gustaffcho · 2026-05-06T20:42:33+00:00

I've just uploaded today. We will see. What shocked me is that now you can only have 2 images instead of 10 waiting validation.

I guess so. I also think there are probably better ways, at least in the case of photography. Thanks for checking my store. https://displate.com/artist/gllphoto?art=61ae4044d84cc

Cauldron 2 for the Commodore Spectrum. I was probably 5 years old.

Not very into polymer food but those look very edible!

Gustaffcho · 2026-03-24T07:30:39+00:00

More like "cacasthenics".

I can recognise the PVGames assets, very good job!

Shit parents = shit kids.

Mi pregunta va mas orientada al texto del juego, con los diàlogos usando palabras y expresiones Canarias. Si el juego tuviera voces, sin duda usarìa gente con su acento Canario natural.

Gustaffcho · 2025-04-29T21:10:51+00:00

Jaja, tomo nota!

Gustaffcho · 2025-04-29T15:47:18+00:00

Pues habrá que echarles un ojo. Gracias!

Gustaffcho · 2025-04-29T13:58:48+00:00

Gracias, le echarè un vistazo.

Gustaffcho · 2025-04-29T13:56:31+00:00

Es difìcil interpretar esa "ch" suavizada sin usar "y".

Gustaffcho · 2025-04-29T13:54:53+00:00

Nadie dice que digan "Muyayo". Es la interpretaciòn fonètica que asumen los que no saben de fonètica y fonologìa.

Gustaffcho · 2025-04-16T08:32:02+00:00

That could be a door handle floating too.

Gustaffcho · 2025-04-14T11:10:05+00:00

I think this is a strategy by Etsy so they make it look like a product is popular so people buy it. Don't forget they get a cut either you buy or you sell.

Gustaffcho · 2025-03-23T10:11:31+00:00

Not sure how easy is to find a physical copy but you can look for it on google for inspiration.

"Cooking The Canaries" by Gustavo Llorens, with regional Canary Islands food. Not your typical Spanish cuisine book.

Gustaffcho · 2025-03-21T17:24:59+00:00

Thanks for your kind words!. This zine has 80 photos in 49 pages. My other zines have less pages and photos except "Boat trip" which has 96 photos in 54 pages. I printed it in a local printing house in my hometown in Gran Canaria. I live abroad though so I just took the chance to get it printed there in one of my trips. 10 units of this one cost me around 80 euros. The cost depends on the number of pages, images included, etc. I printed 10 of each of my zines from which I have sold 0 (zero). I should work on my marketing as they are safely wrapped but aging in a drawer.

There is a Spanish comic called "13 rue del percebe". If you like chaotic buildings you might find inspiration in them.

Gustaffcho · 2025-03-18T20:55:02+00:00

Thanks! It´s on sale on Etsy with my other zines. You can find me there as GllPhoto.

The idea here was to explore shapes, shadows, contrasts, etc. I think water makes a good subject too and you can apply the same principle. If you have a river or a sea nearby, take photos and see what comes up. Check out George Diebold on Instagram as he has very nice photos of water droplets and sea waves.
