I've got two extra submissions for the Guest Fortnight. There are also two guests who haven't sent in their finished work yet, but I have confidence that they will. In any case, I will extend the Guest Fortnight to include Friday and Saturday, and move the start of the new story to Sunday. November will be an extremely crowded month <IMG SRC="

I've just oploaded 3 more pictures, called rocr.finished, finished2 and finished3.
None of them are really finished, but they are progressive stages of a publishable version of the comic.<P>I'm still far from happy with it, but I'm afraid I won't have time to do something about it until this weekend (if then), so I guess this'll have to do.<P>And if I just blame everything on my inexperience with making comics on the computer, it's really not that bad. (Or so I keep telling myself.)<P>------------------

I arm myself against the consequences of computer suckiness by savin important stuff on both my sucky hard drives.<P>MCV, The Gimp for Windows is the answer to your problems - apart from making Linux work again, of course.<P>(Me, I plan to remove my linux partitions as part of a general re-arrangement of my PC. It may or may not be replaced by a newer version of linux on the other hard drive later on)<P>------------------

OooOOooh! It's my comic!
Sorry it's a bit bigger than your normal ones: it's hogging a lot of space on the webpage!<P>Timmerryn<br> <A HREF="

A shame I didn't get around to making nice connections between the text balloons, but I'm glad the ballons themselves at least don't look too bad.<P>And yes, my comic is too big too. And I didn't even use colour, or compensate by using big blotches of black, and Tamlin doesn't quite look straight at his victim.<P>But look at all the fiddly little detail!<P>------------------
