that has to count for something?


*however I'm thinking my "write something funny" skills are probably far less than mighty.

You forget the mightiness of my jesstering skills.

In essence my drawings were rushed/crap and my jokes were poor/non-existent.

However, each took less than a minute to do.

While we're quickly discussing what programs we used, I tend to use Illustrator, Paint Shop Pro and a handful of freeware tools (I think I used the GIMP for something, but I can't remember what). My last one was mostly Photoshop.

I put in between 30 mins and 3 hours work each*, not including the time it takes to think up. It usually takes longer than I thought, but I'm getting quicker.

Oh, and I'm quite pleased with all but my last submission, save for a few annoyances.

* That was the one versus ruo. For such a simple layout, it took a staggering amount of time to put together.

sadly I do not have access to photoshop or illustrator*, and even if I did, those skills aren't so good.


*the ironic part though is that I work for Adobe.

Well, I'll be in for the next round, if you wanted. I mean, my comics will be pretty bad. Although I do have photoshop, so I might be able to pull off some fancy effects to win the day. Hmm.

count me in, seeing as how some of you liked my first crappily drawn ms paint comics, i'm sure i can get the ol' creative juices flowing.

Hm, maybe I'll join in...

Since it's not like I've done anything of remote significance here.
I draw ASPtY and run Sketchbattle.

I think this discussion should find a thread of its own, or people who might otherwise have signed up could ignore it.

So... I'll do that then.

Edit: I did it. Made it a sticky, too, and un-stickied the other one.
