“It is a niche that has been recognized by some companies as viable, but not really developed with the kind of passion it takes to make it an integral part of its growth strategy,” GayPayCheck owner Tom Barrington said. “I get the impression that the many toon sites that we see today are only there to benefit from and capture gay traffic in this niche area, and not really because they have a desire to pursue this as a serious product worthy of consistent new product development or ingenuity.
In addition to hand-painted illustrations, the site also features 3-D artwork, series galleries and licensed video content.
“A major difference between our site and our competitors is that we have licensed a full-length streaming DVD that plays in our members area. We are not aware of any other gay toon site that is streaming DVD videos at this time.”
