Welcome Back Boils and Ghouls

How’s everyone doing? Hope you had a nice New Year’s. Unfortunately my annual break is over and I’m sure several of you are in the same boat. So it’s time to get back to business and see what’s new this year.

  • I’ve switched to a more standard JPEG format for my comics. The first reason is because my comics have gotten larger in file size over the past few months and it’s finally gotten to the point where PNG images have become too tedious to deal with. The second reason is because my image quality has been suffering lately as is. Why? Well…
  • My scanner still gives me trouble. I’ve tried all sorts of stuff to cancel out or prevent certain problems, but in the end I still get faded lines half the time for no particular reason. The fact that rescanning the images doesn’t change anything makes me think it has something to do with my paper. Maybe my scanner just doesn’t like plain white paper anymore. Either way, I need to get it to do it’s job again, so any suggestions would be appreciated.
  • We’re approaching our 200th comic. I know we’ve covered a lot of milestones lately, but now it’s time for me to really get serious and get a bunch more readers. I know from experience that a lot of potential readers will decide if something’s worth their time just by looking at the archives, and mine’s starting to get a little intimidating. Not everyone has time to read 200 comics, so chop chop, let’s move it people!
  • Regarding me personally, I’m still going through my usual depression, but I can’t let it get in the way of FI’s progress at such a crucial point. I’ve got plenty of cookies to keep me going for now, so don’t expect me to get too moody with my pencil.
  • Golbjr the Omnipotent is having a birthday soon, so I want everyone to be on their best behavior on the 13th. I will not accept any more embarrassments like last year.
  • I really need to make more Concentrate and Cocktail. I failed to meet my Concentrate goal for last year, so it’s really time to shape up. Some encouragement would really help though.

And that’s all we’ve got to start off 2011. Let’s try not to fall too far behind people. Everyone spread the love of Fruit Incest and especially spread the love of lolis.
