I'm Robert...A.K.A. Kei ...and I have worked on webcomics in the past and hope to start up my old habit. Among other things, I've worked on a chapter of a comic called Supercosmic
http://supercosmic212.blogspot.com/ as well as comics for artificialcomix.com such as Parkbench Dreamer
http://www.artificialcomix.com/parkbenchdreamer/Slideshow.htm and and My Headache
http://www.artificialcomix.com/myheadache/Slideshow.htmYour style reminds me of the comic Erfworld where the characters are somewhat cartoonish is build but quite expressive in practice. I have a few ideas of my own that might work with your style...but if there's something you're looking for in terms of content, tone, or genre, I can definitely whip up some new ideas that may fit what you want to draw for. Anyway, here are my current ideas.
1. First Earth is a land of ocean and islands, a land populated by winged human-like beings that survive in small tribes and towns. These creatures call themselves the Seconds. There are many stories explaining the name among the Secs, the most popular and well known among them claiming "The beasts came first, and we came second."
The Secs, while in their towns with decent numbers, are safe. However not everyone is satisfied with their place, those eager for advancement, as well as adventures, seek out new islands to populate. However untamed islands can be dangerous places for Secs, places where untold of monsters both of flesh and metal reside. The tales of [working title] First Earth deal mostly with those who adventure into the unknown and return to tell the tale, as well as depictions of life in the towns.
2. Eden is a young girl who, upon finishing her SATs, is shot due to excessive noise afterwards by her proctor. Having lived an average life and not doing enough good deeds to warrant entry into heaven or reincarnation, she is assigned as a guardian angel to some boy just a few years younger to herself until she can work up enough karma. Chaos ensues as Eden deals not only with her bizarre afterlife, but also with the schoolyard troubles of a shy and skinny boy. (This idea may not be down your alley because halve of the content involves a young boy and of course, young boys go to school. But the comic really is more about Eden than anything else, although a good part of the comic is about her interactions with him. Also I doubt moments in school would constitute the majority of the boy's and Eden's adventures. I know it sorta falls under your "denied" list, but I felt I'd include it anyway since I'm partial to the idea of doing a story about a guardian angel.)
3. A young man in a world much like ours, inherits a glass egg from his grandfather, who always told outlandish stories about far off places and worlds hidden beneath our noses. The young man finds one day that the egg has cracked open...revealing a mist that is unseen by others and follows the young man around and even communicates by changing its form and forming simple sentences that only the young man can hear. The "cloud" also exhibits the ability to change into living beings and thus be seen. This comic focuses on the day to day as the young man, a young college age student, teaches the "cloud" about everyday life in the modern day. This comic focus's more on "slice of life" vignettes than fantasy.
There, that should give the perspective artist an idea of my abilities and what sort of stories I usually tell. E-mail me at

Eagerly awaiting your response,
Sincerely,
