Wow, I thought they had killed it on the 31st.

Well, this is my comic. It's coming along, with only 11 comics. I update every 2 to 3 days comic-wise, unless I'm busy with the site or other stuff. I haven't updated in weeks due to supposed server trouble (which hasn't happened, yet). So, before you visit, I'm just stating now, I'm not the best artist with a mouse. Why the heck am I using a mouse? I have no tablet (D: and my scanner couldn't read in a black line if it had bifocals). So that's why it's... different. I'm just trying to prove a comic isn't made by LOL ANIM3Z, or an exact replica of "Peanuts", or even have characters that look relatively like human beings. I'm not saying it's bad though. Here's a pretty standard comic (#1 actually):



Yeah, anyway, it's not meant to be "SOOP3R 1337 LOL" jokes. More subtle humor... if you could call it that. I just write what I think. Anyway, I don't do more than one panel. I may do some multi-panel stuff, but I hate sizing and crap, ans it just doesn't work out in the end. I do all of the coloring and writing myself. I use the GIMP, using the paintbrush with a 5 pixel radius. This covers the bold outlines and the coloring pretty well. The lines are a little shakey because that's how I draw with a mouse, it just happens. My coloring is usually with the paintbrush and the paint bucket tool (the latter with a high threshold usually). The pallet is 7 colors standard, and 14 for more than one character per panel. None of the characters have names (or have been named in a panel yet), there's a poll for naming the main character currently, that I'll probably end up ignoring (I've done it for a month now, actually!)

Anyway, on to site stuff. Here is the main site, hosted by the lovely (read "unspecific") recoding.net, and powered by PHP-Fusion. I custom made the comic navigation script, and that's pretty much it. I don't have space for a forum at the moment. I'm willing to host some other comics on my other servers. I'm kind of tight for server space now on the main site. Only 150 MB total, with about 90 of it used. I may be asking for donations to up this amount and pay for a domain name in the near future. So, please, if you like the comic, donate a dollar or two (once I get that dang PayPal button up somewhere). Also, tell your friends. I'm really close to that 10000th hit! If you have any questions or comments, feel free to post here or PM me. Thank you for your time.

NOTE: I'm not looking for C+C or, "how to improve my technique". If you don't like it, keep it to yourself and stop visiting the site. Please be courteous enough to do that. :U

EDIT: OHNOES. Looks like some bots hit my page. I'll fix that ASAP. Those bots are masters of the English language.
