yeah, i've been... distracted.<P>sorry.<P>i realize 'falling off the face of the earth because you're in a depressive funk' and 'falling off the face of the earth because you're having a blast and totally geeking out on two or three things at the same time' look the same from the outside, but i'm ha...

Dude!<P>Yeah: I have original versions of them all in photoshop format, with the layers intact. So I can go through and get them without text, or without color, or whatnot.<P>And I'm all for original Odyssey blurbs! Bring 'em on!<P>V: a background'd be awesome.<P>As for the slaves: Antinoe's the whi...

V: Congratulations! And good luck.<P>And luck to the rest of you, too. It feels kinda early for finals, but...one week seems so much like the next, y'know?<P>I got so far as going through and writing up a list of characters--but it wound up uncomfortably long, so I set it aside for a while. Maybe I ...

thanks! i'm doing it bigger and scaling it down; that also helps. on top of the whole painter thing.<P>as for finals: i always sorta enjoyed finals week. i mean, the exams themselves were unpleasantries to be suffered through, but without classes there was lots of free time and people who, though th...

Dude! I'm glad to be back.<P>The timing was purely coincidence. Though who knows what vaguely unsavory things are linked to Damonk's birthday...<P>And I would warn you, if I'd only realize that I have less free time when I'm on vacation than when I'm not. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/sm...
Sigh. A well-deserved rebuke. But thanks.<P>I think I'm figuring out things: where things are, where they may or may not be going; I'll probably take the rest of the week off, play around with drawing on real paper, the whole bit. Starting again next week with some kind of plan in the background.<P>...
I wish I had a wacky technical reason to have scurried off, but it's just vacation. Driving around So Cal, visiting relatives, looking at desert... incidentally, it's the perfect time to do so: death valley was in the high eighties and windy instead of fatally hot, and the entire desert was green an...

Yeah. It's tricky, though: I find if I go too slowly (in terms of strips per unit time) <I>I</I> start getting impatient, and things don't start going slower, they start getting <I>grainier</I> (or something), with more trying to happen in each strip and important stuff getting lost.<P>So--I dunno. ...

I remember something like that, too. Doesn't it involve his sister, if she'd been spirited away by Artemis instead of being sacrificed?<P>'Cuz he also marries Menelaus's daughter (Hermione?) and either before or after kills Neoptolemus over her, or maybe over some impiety of Neoptolemus's?<P>So now'...

Dude, the temptation is always there. I've been able to resist successfully so far, but...giant robot battle!<P>As for Orestes: he's heading homeish. It's one of the things that always bothered me: who <i>is</i> taking care of things at home in his absence? Since he splits pretty much right after th...

Ok, i'll wait. I'm assuming it's cuz there's a surprise to be spoiled (for someone) though it could just as well be that inspired postproduction reworking'd result in a totally different endproduct, and you're just leaving your options open. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/tongue.gif"><P>T...

A course of action I heartily endorse!<P>Of course, that comes with some obligations on my part, like the sorts of 'about' and 'cast' pages I'll stop complaining about and actually write, so any new visitors won't get confused and wander off.

Spent last night doing computer surgery, computer parts new and old strewn across my living room floor, Ghost in the Shell looping in the background: I'm back in business. It's even somewhat faster than it used to be, with more storage.<P>Which means new comics on Monday, I guess; I'd say I'm behind...

Sigh. It's too bad I've taken a stance of being pleasantly surprised; otherwise I'd have some quality gloating going on.<P>[Although: if you'd won, I'd've had a chance at even better gloating come Sunday. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/wink.gif">]<P>mike
