Effigy_Power Yupp... the GM's wonderful way of getting out of a FUBAR situation...
I am not sure Phil ever had a long-lasting plan to get Val off the rock... but "I mislaid my information" sounds better than "I have no clue".

PS: Some stuff sold and that makes me happy. If I ever see someone wear a Floon-Shirt, I am going to poop myself.

Magravan Wow, and I thought that I used too much text at times.. ;)

Unfortunately, as a DM sometimes the buildup / crisis is a lot more fun to think about, and the aftermath gets little if any thought put into it... I'd probably have tied it into the mask, if it were me running it ;) AFTER I asked if he had the Swimming skill, of course.. And he's an elf, so I would have almost felt obliged to ask him how he thought he'd do on the Con checks ;)

Guy Incognito Hey, that's nothing. Once I had a DM end a campaign with "it was all just a dream." Talk about a cop out!

Cyborg_572 Am I the only one who thinks the Angry Italian taxi logo looks like the Angry Frenchman Comic Fury logo?

Effigy_Power @Mag: Well, there's not too much text when the amount of text is the joke instead of the context itself ^_^
@Guy: Well, that's just sad.
@Cyborg: You're right... the owner and mascot of "Crazy Fop Cabs" looks a lot like the Angry Frenchmen.

PS: I should probably make sure that people know that our DM never did things like this... events may have been embellished for comedic value.

Shaman Thank Floon!!! RPGeneric is now watchable on my end. Cyborg572 explained what happened and told me it was fixed so here i am bitchas!!! I really love what you've done to the place :))

But now i desperately need to know how the hell you did your animation. I gotta learn, i gotta learn!!! So you got my subscription back, on top of my anticipation :))

Effigy_Power Well, Shaman, I will make sure that this comic will be deserving of your everlasting adoration...
Well, not like I can do anything BUT awesome.
As for the animation, there really isn't anymore to it than moving layers around pixel by pixel in Photoshop... lightning is nothing but 3 different graphics being interchanged from frame to frame...
In many ways it's a very simple form of stop-motion.

Shaman Awesome!!! Damn right you can only do awesome and thanks for the tips! Do you recommend some software or websites on flash animation and gifs? Cause i still don't know how to work layers in photoshop. I mean, i know they're there... lookin' at me... waiting on me to use them like an outdated beige dildo, but i'm still oblivious... or lazy. Like once you have all the layer work done, what do you use to make it switch from frame to frame so it moves?

Effigy_Power There is an animation-panel you can open up... basically what you do, once all your layers are done, is to arrange them the way you like them, take a snapshot in the animation panel, move the layers, snapshot the panel and so on.
Mind you, this is by no means perfect. At all.
If you have any talent for Flash, I would say use that... I am still in the process of not rolling up into fetal-position whenever I start it up.

Shaman Cool, thanks! That's actually good to know. I'll give it a shot and see how it goes. But i know fuck all about flash. I wonder if there's a "Flash Animation for Dummies" book. They helped me alot on how to have sex in the past.

Effigy_Power Thanks Bromo, I saw that. While I still find the rating-system somewhat odd, I will take every little piece of appreciation as such.
Thanks to everyone who voted favorably.

Shaman Yes i do find the rating system odd myself. It favors quantity over quality. When i do put out my comic, i'm not sure if i'll enable the system yet. I voted 5s all around for you, Rob, Naki and Fingertwitch, i hope i helped tip the scale for you guys. So congrats! ;)
