[color=#000000ost_uid0]Yeah, it's odd to me too. Probably one of those "about time to restart the computer" things.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]That way people could have complete seasons on their computers without having to save every single fiver manually which would be rather time consuming to say the least.[/quoteost_uid0]

You say this as if manually saving every fiver is hypothetical. By the way, Zeke's 5.5 megs sounds about right. Though in HTML, that number gets way bigger.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Yeah, Nan. I like that one.

Speaking of avatars, what's been up with Derek's, the last few days? I've only been seeing fractions thereof, and it varies: about 10% of it in one post, 60% of it in another, and so on (always the lower portion) -- I haven't seen the whole thing in at least four or five days, maybe longer.

(Not a 5MV question, strictly speaking, but his av's hosted on 3Sygma, and I've noticed no such thing happening with those of the other 5MV staff.)[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Okay, now I'm seeing the whole image, too. :S Weird.

Edit: And then again, maybe I'm only seeing 25%, this time.

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Thanks.

I finally made a coloured version of that WT comic. Figured I should use an actual Romulan avatar, cartoony as it may be.[/colorost_uid0]

If I wasn't so stubborn about maintaining my individuality by not having an avatar, I might use one of the pictures of me you drew.

Knowing my sense of the absurd, I'd pick the stick figure.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Short answer: When I'm not too broke to afford a scanner.

Long answer: As we're broke right now (mum and me), that won't be until I get paid for my current design job. That project is roughly scheduled for completion around end of March, however, that's just a rough completion date as I am waiting on a client for some content.

However, the money may end up going to family expenses. In which case the update may take a long, long, [iost_uid0]long[/iost_uid0] time, because I have no new work lined up. Which vexes me to no end, as Sa'ar or Zeke'll tell you.

So, basically: I don't really know, because the universe sucks and hates me.

I [bost_uid0]did[/bost_uid0] colour the most recent and second, though. So the coloured versions are sorta new. Kinda.

And now, back to your regularly scheduled non Nan-centric thread. [/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Good that you mentioned WT, though, Nan. I'm finally using a setup with sufficient screen res to be able to read all the dialogue/text, so most of them were practically new when I went to read them last night.

And now with color! [/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Gah. What were you at before, 640 by 480?

I made each comic around 700 pixels wide so that people on an 800 x 600 res could read them.

I went 1024 x 768, because I wanted more screen space. Mmm, screen space.[/colorost_uid0]
