Well, I'm leaving for Hawaii in a couple days, so I hope that the site doesn't somehow explode. I tested it, and the code shouldn't spontaneously change itself, but you never know.

I just attended a miniature LAN at the ever gracious Dan's house. Battlefield 1942 and Desert Combat (mod) have taken over my gaming time (mostly Desert Combat). I hear Eve of Destruction and Action Battlefield are supposed to be good, but we couldn't try them out, as poor Dan only has 56k. I was planning on drawing up some comparisons and bits of analysis on Desert Combat and the current situation in Iraq, but that subject's a bit heavier than what I feel like getting into at the moment.

The comic is still going through quite a bit of experimentation, and this one turned out to be a little too large. I can't find a way to scale multiple layers at once in Photoshop 5.0 LE. I've seen other people do it with newer versions, so I'm wondering if it's just something with layers I don't know how to do, if it's a newer feature, or, the most likely situation, if it's a feature Adobe left out of the Limited Edition to get you to buy the full thing. Like the undo history. Paint has an undo history. They left out other stuff like channels, which would be enable some cool effects I'd like to toy with, but I survive without those. I can hardly imagine how convenient having an undo history would be though. It would be like booting up photoshop and realizing I've encountered a golden oasis with palm trees and a spring after scraping my way across a blazing desert on the sunbaked skin of my worn limbs. It would also have a pool and a Jamba Juice.

Anyway, yes, I'm leaving soon, so updates will be sparse. In the meantime, enjoy the comic.

Confused? Read from the beginning. It won't help you understand anything, but at least you'll have read all of them. I'd definitely appreciate any feed back, so

Note:
Hmm, so apparently Internet Explorer doesn't like some changes to the site. This may be the first time I've seen Opera succeed where IE failed. Anyway, hopefully we can fix this soon. I say "we," but Dan's the only one here who knows what to do. Until then, I personally recommend Opera. Actually, I recommend Opera for everything after that too.


Rant of Drew (concerning Pat, mostly)

Ah, Pat. He's really like this in real life. He's great at giving advice, and also listens to people when they've got crap to get off their chests. All in all, he's a nice guy. I really like how this comic turned out too, it really captured what I was going for in the script.
Oh well, more next update.
Also, happy 4th of July.


184. Video: Edith and I are up late studying for midterms watching crazy German music videos from the 90s. I'll miss college.
183. Video: Edith, the darling lass pictured above, will be performing this later this semester. I'm not sure what the protocol is when you find out your girlfriend is a zombie, but I guess I'm glad to have advanced warning that she'll be eating my brains at some point.
182. Video: Women in Western Art. Pretty niftay.
181. Comic: Copper is updating again! Glee!
180. Japanese Insanity Guitar Bear Pink Japan: WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?WHAT?
179. Video: Pac Man invasion. Old, I guess, but still required viewing.
178. Comic: Piled Higher and Deeper: So awesome! Also makes me not want to go to gradschool. Though, it worked out for my dad anyway, so who knows.
177. Artist: JF Bruckner: Oh yeah, jfb is awesome too! Right, right, more artists and comics, I forget so easily...
176. Comic: Copper: Copper is my favorite webcomic. Every strip is inspiringly beautiful and bursting with imagination, but beyond that, they consistently resonate with profundity without screaming "Look at ME, aren't I profound!?" I tried to write a lot more corny praise, but just go read all of them instead, you won't be sorry. I was hoping to wait for Kazu Kibuishi to get back to it so I could scream about its return, but it's been quite a while already, so I'll just link it again once that happens.
175. Artist: Mitsui. Life must be hard when you're this awesome. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
174. Comic: The Unfeasible Adventures of Beaver and Steve. I don't actually read this often, but the toaster knob makes me want to. That sentence will make no sense as soon as they update.
173. Humor: Kyle linked me to this, but I can't imagine why. P.S. Kyle sucks.
172. Comic: Socks. Okay, Socks is also amazing. I need to read through both these soon. Yargh.
171. Comic: Minus. Leo just linked me to minus, and it is aggggghjustgoreaditIcan'tthinkofwhattowriteitisamazing.
170. Flash Game: Fancy Pants. Fancy Pants!!! Made me want to drop everything and make an awesome speedy platformer with simple but incredibly smooth smooth animation with my roommates. Who knows what they'd do, but Kyle already agreed to it. Right Kyle? Study for your midterms to signify "yes."
169. Random: Revenge of Zoom Quilt.
168. Comic: Sinfest. How could you not know about Sinfest already? :|
167. Apps: doPdf. People keep asking how to write out pdfs. If you don't own Acrobat Pro, apparently this works.
166. Humor: Then Japan puts Berkeley to shame in the flash mob arena. But c'mon, it's Japan, it's probably weird when stuff like that doesn't happen.
165. Humor: Berkeley ninja flash mob battle royale round 1 fight.
