Okay, so you're basically shifting the blame unto Lorekeep.
Anyway, I'm quite certain that there is a way for you to cut down the filesize to this comic significantly. Just to give you an idea, here's some other stuff I bought off the internet. The first one from Orange Peel is 350dpi and the one from Ningen Modoki is a 400dpi .pdf file.
Since the only time I mess with the file's dpi is through scanning and then shrinking it down for internet consumption, I feel that I'm not entitled to give any advice as far as .pdf files are concerned. But, looking at the cover page of Ningen Modoki's doujin, it's pretty apparent that you can do something with your work that will allow for a high quality file that doesn't take up an excessive amount of space.
I really hope I'm not raining on your parade with too many negative comments. Two things I would like you to focus on improving in the future is your hair highlights and pubic hair. Though, if all else fails, you can always make all of the characters shaved.
You do make very nice lineart, so there's nothing wrong there. So, perhaps you should browse the internet and find some digital colouring tutorials by professional illustrators. n_n;
Yes, I'm very spoiled, as can be detected from the quality of the things I purchased (e.g. the two works I posted below). Don't take what I say too seriously since there's not very many if any shrinking doujins of similar quality to your work and the fact that I don't think there's a substantial amount of people who post on this board who'll make it worthwhile to create something of a superbly high quality.
