plannin'

i haven't been a total bore right now, i have a rough sketch for the next Blue Canary comic and a new costume design for odile.
you honestly think she's gonna hunt and stake vampires in that skirt? uh-huh. pants are much easier. she's not that stupid. being stupid is amelia's job.
i think it's a pretty good design, considering the stuff i've designed for her sisters, but posting those pictures will have to wait until i update my site design some.

ken now has adobe golive. i'll see about redesigning my site in that. then i'll have him go over the code and tweak it.
that should elimate any broken links and holes in code and make it load nice and pretty. 8^)
also, i'm thinking that since my comic's file sizes are getting pretty big. they used to be abour 50k or so, which i thinkit pretty big, but now it's around 80k. i'm toying with the idea of switching the file formats from .gif and .jpg to .png. what does that mean? for starters, most readers will need the current version of their web browers. and i don't know what it'll do to the ones that don't use internet "exploder" and netscape. first, though, i gotta see if any of the programs i have at home will save to that format.
i may start on that next weekend. it will be a time consuming project to redesign my entire site. i've got alot of stuff to do there.

another thing i'd like to do is a guide to my characters, kinda of like a cast page but more along the line of a character sheet animators use.
this way anyone doing a guest comic has an easier time with the look of my characters. it would have facts in there like, odile does have a nose but one can only see it in profile view, the exact shade of blue for ferdinand in RGB is R=82 G=187 B=245, and etc. i usually have to plunge through other artist's archives to get some knowledge, but this would save some time i think.
