Ok, so we have updates galore at Frilly Pink. We ran out of money, so I can’t update Ship in a Bottle for a while, but I was able to get an artist for a new series at Frilly Pink. It’s called “Kawaii Neko Daigaku”, and it features catgirls, pantsu and all manner of embarrassing debauchery. That debuts on February 10. The bad news is that IW as planning on hiring the team of MagniFire and Saint-Tail to deliver Ship unto you all again, but the compamny startup money ened up being redirected to keeping me from being homeless. So we had a $600 shortfall that has prevented me from hiring any new talent to do anything that doesn’t have an direct subscription model. That’s why Prettio isn’t updating Mocaccino Gang, etc. I have just enough to keep our new series afloat for about 5 months, then we’re back to $0. So please, if you haven’t already, consider joining Frilly Pink. Your small sacrifice monthly may hasten the return of this series to which so many of you profess your love. ;3
If you still haven’t joined, please seriously consider it. I’ll be posting up some higher resolution versions of Members Area images over at Frilly Pink for those of you who love Ship in a Bottle, but none of my other works. I am considering how to carry this out with the comic archive as the early ones by Tira-chan are a little inconsistent (and of varying image quality due to how we used to have to do things back in the day). Plus, I need to commission colors for the b/w pages. But I suspect that this week I’ll have all of the commissioned pages such as “The Genie Handbook” and the Prettio-drawn “How to Get Clean/Dirty 2″ up in there, plus any missing pinups (but nothing by Tira-Chan as we have an agreement not to use her works on a paysite since the split.) I should also have a few things by Glance at higher rez as well. At least 1000 pixels wide, minimum. To find Frilly Pink, we have a join page in the menu above and a general link at the top left of the left sidebar. So please, check it out. 
(signups also help fund getting the artist for this series so we can update again, so please strongly consider it.)
