    Ok, this thread does exactly what it says on the tin :)

    You have about, oooh, a fortnight to draw a comic and send it to me.

    The one that I like best wins :)

    I'll upload all the entries though, but the winner has the additional glory of being the winner!

    :)

    Thats a blank frame and a picture with all the characters in it. You can just copy paste to make your own :)

    But, i'd really love to see some in peoples own styles as well :)

    I'll take the ones that people have sent me over the last few days as entries as well.

    And!

    You can send in as many as you want :)

    Oh, and save them as gif or jpg files. My mail address is in my profile.

    get drawing! :)

    Can they be hand-drawn?

    Note: this does not imply that I will make a hand-drawn tripod. It is a simple query.

    Yes. Yes you can.

    Infact, it'd be rather cool

    Ohh, ohh, if i do one that's really funny, will you update a bunch of your own belated strips along with mine so that you can take the credit for all of them?

    To those artists ( ;) ) who didn't handdraw: which programs did you use?

    The only tripod I ever made that got updated :)shock:) was made with MS Paint and Animagic GIF (a really basic gif animator). However I think most of the tripods were made in Paint or Photoshop.

    Painshop? That sounds.. intriguing. Can you send me a copy of it?

    I use paint normally and Jasc Animation Shop 3 for animating stuff, surprisingly.

    I've been working on one for around 18 months now that I might just finish and send your way Doors. :)

    Only 18 months! wow that much better than the 4 years it took for you to tie your shoelaces! GO YOU!

    Thankyee. But quiet Rinso, you know I don't like to brag about my shoe lace tieing success with Ben around. :D

    Doors will the one I sent you work?? Or do I have to try and get that picture out of Word and into its own jpeg file?

    I tried honestly I did but Paint wouldn't resize the screen big enough and half the comic was cut off, and it would change the colours of everything I copied into it so everyone became this weird combination of orange and grey... Any suggestions are more than welcome.

    I'll be joining in! I normally use MS Paint, sucky though it is, but I may hand draw a comic for this special occasion.

    Yeah, it's fine. I'll get it converted into a picture format :)

    I sent you the colour version of my/garner/ba (garner wrote the script, ba did the punchline) tripod guest strip.

    I've written a single pannel gag strip, buzzfloyd's going to do a drawing of it for the contest. So, assuming doors ever gets online before Buzzfloyd finishes, no declaring the contest over till we've finished it.
