Seems to be broken if you upload an avatar smaller than the default dimensions, I'll try to get this fixed next week.

Is it possible to make a calendar of what h manga will be released for purchase? Renai Sample was announced months ago, it'd be nice to know what other titles will be released in order. BTW, how do you decide in what order the mangas get released? It'd be nice if you could ask the consumers what they'd like to be released via a poll or something.Yeah this is a really good idea, something I will work on next week.
Mike also made an attempt at his own wallpaper (which you can find below). Feel free to use this as the indicator of how we are now a professional company with high standards on the content we release.
Less than 24 hours before the digital release of Renai Sample launches! As a small bonus we took the artwork from the pin-up posters (which will be included in the digital release) and turned them into wallpapers. There wallpapers are 1920x1080, feel free to resize them however you like.

Ok, thanks!!! Thx for replying! Another question, I can buy it without the need of a Paypal account right? I only fill my ccard info and thats it? Thank you again for replying :)That is correct, you do not need a PayPal account.
When you pre-order the manga it will be added to your account immediately. Once it's available (tomorrow), you'll be able to read it online and download it. We'll be sending out emails to everyone when it goes live.

Have a question for anyone who knows, how does the gifting system work, and can you only gift digital, or is there an option for sending a hard copy?Gifting hasn't officially been announced yet, but I'm glad you noticed! You will only be able to gift digital items to other users.
I was actually thinking gifting would be awsome as soon as I saw that fakku books was a thing, when will gifting be activated? And how will it work, like will they have to accept the gift, or can you just give it to them. Also, I thought it would be cool if we had an anonymous option so we could do secret santas at Christmas.
Gifting is actually live right now! Just go to someones profile that doesn't have a book and click "Send Gift". You can include a personalized message with it, but it will show who actually sent the gift to the user you are gifting.
I'll look into adding the anonymous feature, I think it's a pretty good idea.
Further question about this, how many people can you gift the book to and do you still keep your own digital copy?
There are a few people who ordered multiple paperback copies and as a result they have multiple digital copies as well. In that situation the user could send their extra digital copies to other users.
Gifting is basically just buying a copy of the book for another user, you don't lose or gain anything (except a fancy new achievement I need to think up related to gifting).

Couple questions:1) It looks like you're starting off releasing about one book a month, while ramping up production. How many books a month do you eventually envision releasing? How many books do you think you'll release in 2015 (if you can/are willing to say)?
2) Can you look into providing the digital releases in an ebook format? For me, the whole point of a digital release is being able to read it anywhere on my tablet. An ebook format like epub or mobi (or even just a pdf, if all else fails) would be infinitely easier to deal with than a couple hundred jpeg files.
Thanks for answering all our questions!
For the next month or two it will most likely be one book a month (the next book is Punikano by pyon-Kti). As we get familiar with the process and bring in more artists things will move a lot faster, I expect by early next year we will be releasing 2 - 3 books a month.
All digital releases will be available as ebooks! Probably pdf/epub,
Really happy to have Sera on the team, she is a talented artist and she brings a lot of artistic skill to FAKKU. I can already tell you her hand drawn SFX in the books are looking incredible. Plus you should all go check out her store (I know I want one of those egg drop shirts, wink wink).

Ugh...I'm completely torn. I *REALLY* want to buy the book, but I can't justify the ~$150 shipping cost (I reside in a small country that's on the other side of the planet). Are there any shipping alternatives?You should talk to Jacob since there no way that right for a book. Unless your wanting over night delivery to mars.
Exactly. Send an email to store@fakku.net with your address and shipping option and we'll see what's going on.
