I’m so sorry guys, but I can’t get to the update today. I’ve got some sort of virus, constant migrane and nausea… I barely had the energy to get out of bed.

As soon as I feel better ill do double updates till im caught up with however many ive missed.

You may have noticed that the menu in the sidebar has been replaced by an ad… I’m sorry about that, but it has to stay for the meantime.

There were some glitches with the new site design.  Moments after I put it up, complete with ad space in the extra sidebar, i was alerted to the fact that it looked terrible in IE.  Since I’d only tested it in Firefox, assuming that all browsers would show it the same way, I didn’t realise that there might be a problem.

Fixing said problem isn’t so easy, either.  I’ve had to get someone else in, an expert, so when things ARE working, they will be working properly.  I’m not sure how long that will be, though, and until then, I have to keep the Project Wonderful ad up on the site.

July 17th is Orange Hat Girl’s 1st Birthday! (the comic that is, not the character )

To help celebrate, I will be unveiling a snazzy new site design some time this week, and also…

THERE WILL BE DOUBLE UPDATES, EVERY WEEK for the ENTIRE month of July!

So, starting next Monday, we will be updating Monday and Thursday for four weeks! AND I MIGHT consider keeping the double update indefinitely. However, that is only IF I manage well enough for July. I’d rather have one guaranteed update day, rather than promise more but always miss them with some lame excuse.

See you in July!

As you may have noticed, due to the lack of incentive updates of late, my comic buffer has run out.

This is all due to the insomnia ive been suffering lately. I havn’t got more than 3 to 5 hours sleep a night for about a month. My creative energy has dwindled down to nothing, so the last three comics were posted in the hopes that i’d be sleeping better before I ran out. Unfortunately that isn’t the case.

The next comic is mostly visual, and I know generally how I want it to go.. Yet I’m struggling with working out the panel layout and order, trying to figure out which would have the best effect yet also portray exactly what I want it to.

So, long story short.. the comic will be up either later today, or tomorrow.

Buzzcomix: a panel from the upcoming comic. Is this a new character I spy?

You know, its funny how similar machinimation in The Sims 2 is to real filming. You need to provide for your actors and actresses, keep them happy, and their needs met, otherwise they start to whinge and complain at you, spoiling the shots.

TWC: Vote here to see a “behind the scene’s” style shot I took while meeting some of their needs. It was so cute a picture I had to snap it.

New incentives are up! Both are screenshots which will be cropped and scaled down to appear as panels in the next comic.

Keep an eye out for the unplanned cameo, as it will be cropped out for the comic!
