Is it just me, or does he have a sort of 'wink wink, nudge nudge' look on his face?

Boo. Pick one and be proud of it.

I like the art style. You're good at showing a range of styles, Scott.

I haven't seen any others, but I wouldn't know if there was.

I enjoyed it, especially the fractalness to it. It took me a while to figure out how to go back, though.

I was always confused by the ending of "Young Zaphod Plays It Safe" until I read the version in Wizards of Odd, a short story collection published a few years back. It contains a couple of sentences that weren't in earlier versions, explicitly stating who the mysterious cargo was. Looking back at t...

Wait... 'Young Zaphod Plays it Safe' is supposed to be ambiguous? All this time I thought I just wasn't getting it. I don't know if he wanted ambiguity, but he got it. He said that he had someone specific in mind, but I personally like the theory that it is someone else. Who do you think it was? Ben

I think that the ambiguity was better than the new ending. Seeing what other people thought the ending meant was as fun as the comic itself, a sort of 'Young Zaphod Plays it Safe' situation. I also had an interpretation different than the one that it now shows, so there's some dissapointment in bein...

Holy cow... this stuff is spectacular! Where are you finding these artists?

Of course, it's only available without restraint to the strip writers. The readers are just as restrained as always.

Anyone have any tips on 24-hour-comicing? I'm planning on doing one, since I need to shift around anyway. I don't draw well, so it should be amusing that way at least. I'd ray trace it, but they take a lot more than an hour to do anything worthwhile, using POVray.

http://www.angelfire.com/comics/hotd/ I just wanted to bump this, to have people look at it. Be engrossed by the muskrat. The non-comic drawings are especially spectacular, like the spectacular procrastination (at the bottom) and other interesting humanoid animals. [edit: angelfire wouldn't let me ...

Oh ... I think I am getting it now. In the fifth panel the parallelogram says he/she/it wants to send infinity together (nice), and he/she/it wants to "bump" a bit, then the next one I'm a bit confused. Are the brown circles kids? Then the parallelogram says he/she/it wants to die together. Right? ...

Ok, so I'm a bit slow. Never mind me.

Where does the revenge come in?

I think it's more like "The Circle's Disdain", or "Dismissal All Around"...
"The Pointy is Horny"...
"Feasible Configurations of Barycentric Coordinates Get Shot Down by Pagans"...

Hey! You're not allowed to post if you're not updating your webcomic!

Just kidding... neat that you used a background from your comic. Very nice work.

No, that's Tripod. You get a lot less than you pay for when you use 'free' webhosts.

I hope Dan doesn't mind:

i think i just made the world's first message board emoticon online comic! i think i'm gonna go draw now... I've seen a lot worse on the SMDB. You'd be amazed how far some people will go. :( :( :oops: :oops: :oops: :( :( :( :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: :( :oops: :oops: :( :oops: :( :oops: :oo...

Thanks for starting a non-linear one. I'm raytracing an entry like I did on the 52 card pickup, but with this jam I won't hold up the progression.

Absurd Notions doesn't update every Monday any more, so the periodic link lies.

Other than the use of CSS, I like the new layout. Makes the scroll down to the quote a shorter trip.

It shouldn't be too hard to make the BBCode parser look through the usernames when it gets a piece of code it doesn't recognize.

Sounds like an interesting approach to me.

You say randomly picked, but you're three examples are all nouns. Would it be just nouns, or adjectives and verbs and adverbs and proper names and such?

I decided that I may want to pick up a micropayment domain. I think micropayments will eventually be common for content sites (webcomics, journalism, how-to, and undoubtedly porn) that don't want to run on the advertising model, especially if the web advertising market collapses any further. Of cour...

I'm launching a website detatiling a variety of pulse jet engines. Along with theory, history, designs, etc., I'm planning to have a few how-to type articles. Right now I'm planning on doing the "how-to"s in regular old text with a few graphics, but I'm contemplating making comics instead. They woul...

I used to hang out a lot in international newsgroups, which is where I picked it up. Some must call us that. I call us that.

Ben,
Allah bless Merka.
