So I say nothing.
See, there's the problem. One Liners isn't typical of the format -- because it's really funny. You don't have as much competition as you think. :)

Well, you needn't be; in your case, the harshest criticism you're likely to hear is "you don't update enough."

I'll admit that the main reason I welcome being reviewed/criticised is to potentially bring traffic to my site. I'm interested in what reviewers have to say, but I feel like I have a pretty good grasp on what's working in my strip and what I need to improve. Which is not to say I ignore the reviewers' suggestions, I'm just saying that my main goal is the clicks from the reviewer's site.

Woot.

You seem to have posted the title 'Monty and Wooly' once on your site without any text... Like you hit 'enter' too early and didn't notice?

Thankyou for the review :) - That has really helped to be honest, having an extra opinion always helps to get things rolling!

In response!

- The backgrounds are a thing i'm working on, i've just started using flash really and running a web comic in it was an interesting step for me to take artisticly. As i'm getting more familiar with the program, the comic will change (for the better i hope!) More detailed backgrounds were definatly something i am hoping to add, along with a few more background characters ;) who are planned and will be evolving onto the screen soon!

- Comic size - Good point, i hadn't noticed that lol. I may or may not tweak that, because i liked having it a set size so making a printed book would be easier lol. But i can see what i can do!

- Speach bubbles - Yeah, its worth a try! I was concidering having a play around with the idea, so now i have some incentive!

Seriously though, thanks for reading and thanks for the review! :)

New review up for The Bullet Points! Yep, I know it's been a week or two. Sadly, I went to the doctor and was diagnosed....with Restless Leg Syndrome. Pity me.

You said 'please molest me' so I'll molest you by NOT molesting you. :twisted:

So I guess my rudeness towards you is something worth masturbating at! XD

( and yeah i expect some negitive )

but you seem to always balance out what you say with positive advice
so if you wouldnt mind , let me know what you think of my off center universe -

mind you this is a NSFW comic in some areas -

I think I'll forgive Jack for a while.... Now all of my evil hatred is pointing in Tangent's direction. :twisted: Now that he also has a forum....

I like you too, now hurry up and review my comic. Just kidding. About the reviewing. Take your time on that. I do like you though. But not that way. Damnit.
