Like: (Hedgehogs) Some of the strips look really pretty. (Factory) It takes the mick out of factories and people I know. (WTF) It's nice and weird.

Hate: The fact I rush some cartoons causing the artwork to be terrible. I don't know why I do it.

I like my characters, which are pretty unique and have very sad backgrounds (I just didn't make it to reveal any background yet... things to come...) and I like the way the comic looks when colored.
I like my groupie! ^__^

What I don't like is what the process of lettering does to my comic. I use three different programs and the finished strip has lost so many details due to multiple resizing by Micrografx Designer and Publisher... argh!
I'm not very good at writing too. The pacing of the story is too slow and the punchlines aren't always good.
I wish I could tell the readers all the cool ideas and character backgrounds I have in my head, but at the current pacing the storyline in progress will last till christmas...
"Where are my groupies? She! She is my groupie!!"
"She is my niece, Rick!"

Good:
-Even though my comic makes fun of RPGs, I can still have a storyline that is original and fun to write.
-I like leaving some sort of legacy
-Entertaining people is always great
-My art skills are improving because of this

Bad:
-I really need to learn color theory and my art still sorta sucks
-This whole comic thing is really time consuming


hmm.. looks like the good outweighs the bad!

Like: the way making them takes little effort for a relatively good payoff in entertainment value.

Dislike: lack of artistic merit. Comics take too long to load. Occasionally not very funny.

Liked: the way Ian J told me he liked my comic and was going to link me, thus inflateing my ego.

Hated: the way he never did. Thus crushing my ego.

I know, I'm just not satisfied with the design yet...

if I ever do make T-shirts I'll spam the boards to sell them cheap, if any of you crazy people still want to cover your nipples with one. :D
