As promised for some time, the .zip archives of the old webcomics. They became unavailable since the old website no longer works. But if you want them you can unpack these zips of older embarrassing material that helped make my name.

This is good stuff! This material is the artwork that made me a fan of your work(s). Thank you for taking the time to collect these archives and make them available to us! We appreciate it!

Why do artists always hate their older work so much? Better Days is a great comic with an engaging story and quality art and so is Original Life. Just because your work has evolved since then doesn't make the older stuff less awesome. THANK YOU for giving us a chance to download them, in any case. I'd be really sad had they been lost forever.

It may seem not so great to you, but I was a young dude when this entered my life and truthfully I really enjoyed every update to these as I grew up. I honestly took concepts and it helped me mature and the "embarrassing" parts really helped me grow. Thank you. Sincerely.

Thank You very much for sharing these, Jay. I love Your older work, because it allowed me to get through darker parts of my life practically unscathed. It was actually one strip of Original Work - the one about Brice Swanson agreeing to have an open relationship - that brought me over. After seeing that I really needed to know Who made this and finding Your work was like finding a treasure. Thank You so much once more for drawing these and allowing us to watch and read these stories.

I loved Original Life. It's thanks to that webcomic that I found you and I've been enjoying your art since then. I loved the sibling relationship between Fisk and Lucy (and the *chrm* other *chrm* relationship hinted at at one point xD). Fisk was so adorable when he thought Lucy died because of him. He's a fine lad and I still hate that Beth wasn't quite ready for something serious with him.

So quick question cause i came upon your patreon a little late but are the current OL pages a loose continuation of where you left off on the original site

Started reading Better Days back in 2008 and still love it :3

Right? Better days is one of the best organized and most cohesive web comics that I have ever seen. Each chapter is a turning point in the lives of one or more characters, who we see grow and age and learn. The ending feels so deeply earned, its actually pretty incredible.

Better Days started me on this beautiful furry universe

mlp was my start into the furry community, but your comics solidified by joy with all the anthro characters. Real characters with engaging personalities no less. hard to find in a lot of media these days.

I don't think it was embarrassing. You told a good story and you made a name for yourself by being professional and producing a damn good product. You should be proud of them, warts and all.

Jay, your earlier works were, and still are, wonderful works of art. The lense that the creator uses verses the lense of the admirer can sometimes be vastly different or very, very similar. My talents have always been working as an engineer, factory work, and keeping people alive long enough to get to surgeons in that order. The dream I've had since childhood is one that you do on a daily basis by drawing anthropomorphic beings, mine having various superpowers, and telling a great story all wrapped up in one. My wife writes anything from fanfiction to poetry, as well as drawing and making jewelry. I've seen how hard it can be for an artist to achieve the desired outcome of their work. A truly talented artist, like yourself, works so hard to be as perfect as they can be that it can actually affect their health. As I said above, the lense you are using can be vastly different than others. This is not flattery here but actual fact: You are very talented at drawing, a great story teller, and as far as I've seen and heard on the net, a very nice person to be around.
