Now, if you hadn't already guessed who jerkwad was supposed to be (my art style's changed quite a bit and he IS rather generic) I included the handy-dandy visual aid in that next-to-last panel there. It's amazing what I had to do to make that look bad! XD I mean, the original image is only 80 dpi. I work in 300 dpi now, so I actually had to enlarge the image to get it to fit that screen. I though that that alone would make it look pixelated and crappy. But the fact that even enlarged it appears smaller than its original obscured a lot of the details and it actually looked sharper than it does on the original page! So I had to apply a pixelation filter to it to make it look bad. I mean, it's not a lot of work, but I never thought I'd have to go out of my way to make something look worse! XD
And yeah, Ty's computer would prolly have really awesome graphics. I just wanna keep a difference between screens and the rest of the world.

Also, my humblest apologies to all the Dans of the world. Despite the fact that "Dan" is a common name, every Dan I have EVER known has been wonderfully weird. There's been nothing common about ANY of them. So I feel bad giving my thus far generic baddie this name and then labeling it "boring". It's only boring 'cuz it's common, and a lot of people in the FFC world have odd names. Plus…I think Liss was expecting something exotic. XD So sorry to put this loser in the same category as you, Dans of the world. You're all awesome in my book!

I got a really cool download program from a reader! I haven't put it on my site yet, but it'll be up soon! I like to keep you all up-to-date on when I forget to do stuff. XD

Thanks for reading! See you next week!
