Oops.

I didn't forget that it was Monday. Course not.

Didn't shade Leigh's face in the third last panel cuz I was afraid that I'd totally screw it up. Yup.

Also, look! I hit ten comics! I'm rather impressed, XD

This has got to be my favourite comic out of all the ones I've done so far. Largely due to the fact that I've finally drawn someone in profile and actually liked it! Gasp, I know! Lourdes does, however, attempt to ruin it, per usual. It's weird that I've become better at drawing Leigh than I have with Lourdes... I've been drawing Lourdes for longer than I have been drawing Leigh, so you'd think that I'd be better at drawing her... Ah well.

I like the last four panels. They're fun. The rest isn't so awesome.

Lourdes isn't exaggarating, by the way. She is, however, being misleading - she's included all of the non-intelligent life she has destroyed. And since there is billions and billions of bacterias living in our bodies alone... I'm going by the assumption that other species have developed the same symbiotic (ish) relationship. And how did she kill so many? Well, she's blown up a few planets...

Ironically, Friday's comic deals with death as well...

I rather like that comic.

Well, I didn't say later 'today'...

Anyways, this could actually count as a frequently asked question, XD Cuz everybody wants to know!

Unfortunately, I didn't really answer it. XD Er, maybe I'll show what happened some other day?

Good news - I've got photoshop to work again! Yay! Comic will start up again tomorrow. And, for the last one and a half hours of today, I figure that I'll just post the first thing I've ever attempted to draw in Flash.

And drawing in Flash is... weird. I don't like it. I'm a layer addict, that's no secret... And Flash makes it difficult to work in layers... I suppose it'll be easier for me soon enough if Adobe makes the Macromedia Suite more... photoshopish. If they do, I'll be extremely happy. Dreamweaver is the only Macromedia product I can use, and I suck enough at it as it is, XD I basically use it for the syntax highlighting and cuz I can see my file tree thingy over to the left.

One of these days I'll learn to use Flash... One of these days...

Note: I removed all those obnoxious old newsposts from this page. It was driving me insane.

Well.

I've got comics finished and such... There's just one small issue... Photoshop CS3 has decided to totally crap out on me (again) and I haven't for the life of me been able to fix it... I'm on about my fifth or sixth reinstall here. And it requires me to close down Firefox if I wish to reinstall, so it's not like I'm able to do it frequently without causing myself mass boredom. This wouldn't be so much of an issue if it wasn't for the fact that I scan through PS. I'm sorry, but trying to fight with the scanner software/mspaint would be way too much work for me.

I, er, have a crappy webcam shot of what was supposed to be Sunday's... thing?

No comic at the moment. I kinda, er, forgot that I hadn't finished today's yet. I'll probably have something for you later on today... I also forgot to put up yesterday's bonus thing... Will do that later as well. Sorry.

I really do get too many hits for porn... And I conveniently didn't mention the second xXx movie cuz it sucked. Also, I'll fix the stuff I forgot to draw on Leigh later... I don't have the time at the moment...

That's pretty much all I've got to say.

Wait, no... With this comic, I am tied for the amount of pages in the archive with Travis. Hee.

Er, very sorry for the late update... At least I still uploaded this on the right day, eh? And the FTP stuff seems to be fixed, thank the gods. I can actually update without spamming Travis!

Speaking of Travis, this comic answers one of his questions... Unfortunately, after I finish the comic for his last question, I've run out. So, er, send me questions please? I'll love you forever!

Amie giggles every time she sees the third panel... I wonder if that's a good thing... And perhaps I should stop carrying every page around with me >.>;

And, yeah, Leigh really is that oblivious. Lourdes, however, neglected to answer the question. She woulda probably said 'a dead one' anyway.

Um, yeah... About five minutes after finishing this page, my pen died. That's why it's so sucky >.>;

Some of the greatest things that'll piss Leigh off is if someone insults her intelligence (though if they are subtly she doesn't even notice, half the time...), her education, her skills as a white mage and the fact that she was born into a wealthy family. Lourdes managed to use all of those facts against her.

The fact that Lourdes is smoking around Leigh will be explained... eventually.

Reason for delay: I still haven't figured out how I'm gunna arrange things with the occasional Sunday... things. Should I just leave them in the archives? I dunno how well that would work - it's often gunna just be doodles or splash images, not comics... Obviously this is a comic, however, as is next week's. One of Travis' questions gets answered next Sunday, XD

But, yeah, one thing I hate is reading a comic and coming across frequent non-comic images *coughMegaTokyocough* It kinda ruins it for me.

Decisions, decisions... Feel free to put in your two cents over at the forums.

Anyways, for comments on the comic...

Er, yah, it's full of lies and plot holes. For one, Lourdes has a PhD in Physics, so obviously she woulda known about momentum. And there's more than that XD Five House Points to anyone who points out issues over in this thread. And sorry for the practically illegible text... I'll try writing larger in the future. And writing less >.>;

Oh yeah... And I will remove some of the old news posts from this page... someday... Having more up will make it easier for me to test my stolen ideas, XD

And this would be the 'real' beginnings of the comic - in which Leigh and Lourdes answer questions that others ask!

Of course, in this case, they also came to the very wrong conclusion. After all, just because they are answering a question doesn't mean that they are right...

Oooo, two updates in a row. Niiiice.

Of course, this is a page that explains a lot about myself >.>; And lies a tiny bit too. Well, Lourdes lies. It's not as if she's immune to the wish to fangirl as well XP

Well well well. I actually managed to make the first real update.

It's exciting.

Anyhoo, this one came about because, at the time, my mother thought that I was depressed cuz I was being all snippy with her. Perhaps I had better things to do, like avoiding homework? In that case, it would have been because I was mad at myself, not her >.>; However, a few days later, mother decided that it was PMS.

Each to their own, I guess.

This comic makes for a more... entertaining... story, in my opinion.

Who wants to read about PMS anyway?

Well, at least Leigh is not lying, which is, in many ways, rather impressive.

Er, not that she isn't lying, rather it's that this comic will exist. Exciting, I know. After all, how many times I have I said that already?

But this time I mean it! After all, I do have the next few pages done *wink*

Comic starts on February 26th, 2007. I'll post the first real page sometime in the early morning - likely around eight AM my time.

Oh, don't act so excited. It's flattering, really. But quite unnecessary.

Also, I am now going to post a long wall of text to make sure that my code works. Exciting, eh? Though I do not see how it will not work - I jacked most of it from my index page. Then again, I had a bitch of a time getting it to work anyways. Damn you navbar, damn yoooou~! I wonder if this is long enough yet? Hmmm, I'll just keep on rambling. It's not as if I haven't had difficulties doing that before. I have to make those character pages and gallery ones and so such. And I do wish to have it finished by the 26th, you know. So that I can say that I actually accomplished something during Reading Week. Gasp, I know. I made a list and everything. If you are curious, you can read it over at my blog. It's full of excitement, truly.

Well, I believe that shall be all.
