This of course leaves the question WHY IN Microsoft* did Red (who should know by now I would have a snowflakes chance in hell of finding an artist having been here for years while I figured it out in 1 post) suggest I post here (where even if I did have a real chance it's not the right place to post).Alaina wrote:Jeffrey: I think the problem is that just about everyone here already has a comic/project
By the way... Something maybe nobody noticed...
When I discribed Red I purpousfully also discribed myself...
Only I tossed in "famous" becouse Red is well known here and I'm not.
(I am known on MZDM but it's not valid)

Well, on the face of it, it's a no brainer. Recipes? Go to a cooking forum. Writing critiques? Find a writer's forum. Comic artist? Hey, obviously you need a comics forum.Jeffery McLean wrote:This of course leaves the question WHY IN Microsoft* did Red (who should know by now I would have a snowflakes chance in hell of finding an artist having been here for years while I figured it out in 1 post) suggest I post here (where even if I did have a real chance it's not the right place to post).

With all due respect to Red, I often ask that question myself.Jeffery McLean wrote:This of course leaves the question WHY IN Microsoft* did Red [...]
I think he's sorta like a king, running large scale politics, and having no idea what's happening in the streets.
Either that, or he's simply slightly more insane than we are, which is quite an achievement.
You are the Non. You must go now, and never return."
"1.Scan in high res 2.tweak with curves,levels or something to clean up the scan (or use channel mixer to remove blue pencil lines) 3.Add colour using a layer set to multiply. 4.Add wordbubbles and text as vector shapes. 5. Merge all layers. 6.resize to the web size. 7. Export/Save for Web" that's all I know about webcomicking.

It's quite a bit easier than you might think.
Artist: The artistic intelect interfering with the logical intelect.
Techie: Logical intelect focused on the macanics of the mathmatical world of computers rather than the real world.
Furry: Bending the brain to cease to function as a "human" brain to get the closest animal equivlent possable.

Actually, Jeffrey, you seem to have a natural candor and way with words about you. I think that whatever you write stands a better-than-average chance of translating into entertainment.

I'm back to obseesive compulsive writing of Neko Homeworld and I'm drawing again...JPSloan wrote:I think that whatever you write stands a better-than-average chance of translating into entertainment.
So maybe..
Elsewise there is still UID-99 storys and ZenWhatever.
(ZW I'm already planning to draw myself when I can and UID-99 isn't intended to be drawn. It's writen to be presented as text and wouldn't translate into comic format very well)
And some day I plan to do a complete rewrite of World War IV.
(Inspired by the comment: "I don't know what wepons we'll use in World War III but in World War 4 we'll use sticks and stones")
Thanks for the complament. I'm also moody... Hay dose that make me a moody obsessive artist type? Oh boy I'm a moody obsessive geeky artist wheeeee....
