Yuricon News

The Yuricon custom toolbar has been updated and is now available for IE, Firefox and Chrome.

We’ve also updated the Submission Guidelines for ALC Publishing. From the updated rules, “These guidelines are a test of your ability to follow simple directions, so if you do not follow them, your work will not be considered.” I hope that clears things up for people. ^_^

Just in time for the first new Yuricon contest, (which was decided by poll and will be a Fan Art contest,) we’ve given a brand new look to the Yuriko and Friends Gallery!

Usakame Combo (うさかめコンボ!) looks like loads of loli wacky 4-koma fun for people who like Aisha and Rin-Rin clones.

Tenzen Aluminium, Volume 3 (天然あるみにゅーむ) is more 4-koma with some mild Yuri, just like, um, every other 4-koma. Here are some sample pages.
