The New Bill Abbott Cartoons Site

9/11/2017

 First, thank you for coming here to read this. The motivation behind going from my previous website to this is really two-fold. We've got such an amazing group of people on social media, and it's a joy to share my work every day But there's been a number of issues that, in my mind, require having at least a solid back-up plan. A place to go if, for example, Facebook suffers a continuation or expansion of the current crop of hackers who go in and steal accounts. If something doesn't appear right, it probably isn't, and so now there'll be a place where we can interact and carry on without interference. The second reason is that my previous site, while very technically advanced and well set up by the company I paid to create it, was beyond my capacity to add things and change when I wanted. While this site will be simpler, it will have a great deal more in terms of features and things I can share with you. And as needs must, I can make changes, add fun pages, and interact with you more personally and fully. I will be sharing and writing a great deal more about the art, business, history, and all things cartooning, too. I'm hoping the comments section will be actively used. Your feedback is so important. Thank you again for being here, and I look forward to building this site into a fun place to hangout! So, for Heaven's sake, please dress appropriately.

Tasteful, yet with whimsy. Elegant with a hint of earthy humor.

Clean shirt, new shoes
And I don't know where I am goin' to
Silk suit, black tie
I don't need a reason why
They come runnin' just as fast as they can
'Cause every girl crazy 'bout a sharp dressed man

Nice job. I appreciate your honesty re: setting up a new site. I think this is that "value" folks claim to be offering when they recycle heartfelt quotes on LI.

Seriously? I had hoped never to see this disco garb ever again!! However, the new web site looks good, so I'll just have to adjust. Congratulations, and best wishes on your launch.

Goodmorning from downunder as my better half says ( you only really turn on your ph in the morning to see what specks is doin ) love the toons and sharing with friends. Amazing insight into every day situations that we all at sometime have experienced.
Awww Fiddle sticks just a great smile from all of us to a site that is not pc or violent 😉😉

Posted on Facebook today:

Bill Abbott was kind enough to send me one of his cartoons for the wall of my charity barbershop. Tomorrow I'll have it printed and then frame it. Thank you Bill, you the best.

Support our veterans and those truly in need.
Care more for others, less for yourself, and honor God in all things.
