This looks great. Your first series and you already have a grasp of GIMP, a nice style, and good humor. I can't wait to see it grow!Also, thanks for bringing to my attention the lack of 360 for that pose. Considering it's the one of my main character, you'd think I would have made it. I'll be sure to have one done by tomorrow.J-K out.

Well, this technically isn't my 'first series', i had several old series on my old account - and back then, i was a serious amateur.I decided to start slate-fresh, and give it a go this way! I also decided not to make another series till i thought i was good enough at spritework and such.Also, you're welcome for the 360 deal.Since it wasn't available from the Kal sheet i got, which, i can't exactly remember where i got it from... Either ways, i decided to try and make a 360 spinny using the six-shade sheet and then applying the Kal details. Mind sending me in PM the updated sheet?

>OM: Attempt to use hammer icon on large boulder in your path.Since he can't grab the hammer icon anyways, he decides to try and use his sword to stab-ify the bould- Wait, that's not a boulder it's a mountain... or, a volcano. With a castle? And... a lava moat? Who builds a castle over a lake of fire? Maybe the same crazy people who burned that forest over there. And who's this fellow? [Author note: Yeah, this isn't really my best background. But hey, practice makes perfect, so i'll keep trying with stuff like this.]Under the light of the volcano, you decides to walk up to this strange person.He seems interested in coming along on this journey of yours! Introducing himself as... King Joe? hm. Odd name, wonder what he's king of. Well, anyways, he queries if you would allow him to come along and join your MATORAN COMPANY.Of course, King Joe! Your name is...What is the orange matoran's name?==============================================Well now, i would like to make an announcement.As i have now made it to the 10-post mark, all Action Commands must be sent by PM. I will update the topic soon after i have set this in. Seeing as someone already recognized this factor and sent in the next action command via PM, and that they have agreed to become the first 'Lasting Cameo', King Joe will now be a part of this adventure, and, as per request of King Joe himself, will be able to be given an action command via 'KJ: <command here>'.Secondly, other cameo appearances are allowed, send me a PM about it.It will require the Spritesheet [Chimoru Sixshade or Chimoru Kal, i don't have time to run the comic and reshade someone's sheet both.], Character name and description, and powers.It can either be a Simple Cameo, [Equivalent to GS, may appear in a few strips, or maybe a background character] or a Lasting Cameo. [Equivalent to PGS, recurring character and often in main strips.]Also as of note, i have completed a banner for DDD, feel free to apply it to your signature!Here's where it's located, so you can link it.EDIT: I haven't been able to link-image-code it for some reason, so i'll leave it be.

Yeah, i'll admit, the effect bugged me a bit too - i guess i forgot to fix it. I'll keep it in mind from now on, thanks![EDIT: Also, keep in mind, don't feel like you can't make a post just because it seems a little out of character range - i have been, and will be making edits to OM's spritesheet for custom poses, for when the action calls. I even made a custom 360 spinny using the basis of the 6-shade chimoru combined with Chimoru Kal, to give him maximum posability when it comes to looking at things in the background and such - unfortunately, i hadn't made this at the time of the 'look-at-the-sun' post, i just made it today. I'm not sure why i did, but, i guess i gave him a side-kick pose? Oh well! Thanks for all of the input.]>OM: You turn to the left and see a hammer. How will you get it down?Odd ideas of jumping and ladders - involving his arms [which he really would prefer to keep snugly attatched to his torso], objects that he doesn't even have, or necessarily don't even know of - fill his head, but he does not know why he would do this! After all, it's only his trusty HAMMERSPACE! He keeps his items in his HAMMERSPACE, since he often needs his hands free, though he usually keeps it tucked away with a hammer icon. Inside are 6 red spaces for placing items, and two arrows - which cycle through his selection of items. They don't work right now though - he only has two items with him at the moment! His PROTOSWORD and his trusty POINTY OBJECT - which he obviously needs for opening small containers that happen to be very stubborn. Or... stabbing, whatever works. It could be a knife. All MATORAN need something to defend themselves with, and disk launchers have never been his choice.Now what?

Thanks for the feedback, i'm looking forwards to actually having a successful comic series for once.>OM: Rub your eyes and walk to the right.OW OW OW. Which way is right again?Oh. Maybe you shouldn't walk with your eyes closed... What's that up in the corner?What will you do now?

Thanks a lot. I had read the rules at one point - but, i suppose i should give it a quick re-read! Never hurts, after all. Anyways! On with the show.>OM: Slowly get to your feet, and, striking a classic searching pose, gaze into the skyThus far, he has done well, and, gazing in awe of the beautiful sky, seeks -OW WHY DID YOU FORGET YOUR TELESCOPIC SCOPE ON YOUR MASKOW OW OWSTUPIDWhat will you do?

NOTICE! NEW TOPIC IS READY!

CLICK HERE!

Well everyone, before i begin, i would like to give a brief explenation.For quite some time now, i have hoped to start up a Choose Your Own Adventure, or CYOA.Recently, i have noticed a slight gain in popularity of this sort of comic - and, i assure you - i've had this idea for quite a lot longer, and have just recently managed to improve my skills as a spriter and artist to pull this off - of course, i still have plenty of room for improvements. I have seen several CYOAs, and i intend to keep references to them at a minimal - unless, of course, someone sends me an 'action' related to one. Some basic rules are as follows:1. Character 'actions' must be adressed to the character's name, once other characters are introduced. I.E <Name>: <action>2. Action commands should be sent in PM, to remove clutter to the topic.3. If you are interested in any sort of cameo appearance, be it recurring or singular, please PM it to me, so as to keep the topic relatively clutter-free. Cameos must include spritesheet, either chimoru Sixshade, Kal, or R, i won't accept any others, as well as their name, action-command abbreviation, description, and powers. Cameos can be either a Simple Cameo [Equivalent to GS, may be in a few strips, or be a background character], or a Lasting Cameo [Equivalent to PGS, will be recurring character and should be around for awhile.]4. I am most likely to post each new 'comic' in a new post, as putting them in links would sort of... 'ruin the effect'.[AUTHOR NOTE: Update frequency depends on, for the most part, how many action commands i recieve in PM! So, please don't not-send me a command just because you think someone else already has - it may or may not be very likely, although sometimes i may be already working on the comic. Keep trying though, for the sake of the comic!]PLEASE KEEP IN MIND.Once you become a cameo, your character will be at the whims of those who give action commands, and the whims of how i play things out. In this sort of comic, it's something that has to be done.Regardless, i will try to keep what happens to the character within their... 'description'.Current Lasting Cameos:1. King Joe2. Justax-Kal3.

Nearby is what looks like a large boulder, and far off, further down the beach behind him, there seems to be an odd collection of 'lilypads'.He can remember his name, but he does not seem to know why he would want to recall it. He knows it after all.What will you do?

And not a single floorboard went undamaged that day.

...Wait, what?Uh... well. Okay... i'm not really sure how to respond to this....But, good luck and keep going!

I have to say those updated comics are full of win, pasta and cheese. That really adds more of the kind of emphasis needed, to make it sound more like a comic, rather than some sort of 'can't-go-a-sentence-without-dropping-a-curse-bomb' sort of movie/series.

This is an okay series, though it could use some work. I'd suggest speeding up things a bit instead of taking two panels for someone to say, sit up, as an example. Either ways, it's pretty good and i'll make sure to look back over here regularly. (Also, just as a side note. Swearing doesn't necessarily improve a comic's quality, or emphasis, so you might want to think of something more ingenuitive or amusing next time. When done correctly, certain phrases can add a bit of a punch to the punch line more than swearing or profanity can!) Keep up the good work!

Where did you see swearing? I don't remember any.

In '100 Dollars?! part 2'. EDIT: Also in part 3. In both occasions, in my book, censoring swearing implies to the point as if you hadn't censored it at all, though most would differ in my opinion of this. Either ways, however, as said before, i'm certainly going to be watching this comic further on.

This looks pretty good. Good graphics, for one... It's rather interesting despite that i haven't seen the origional series...es. Serieses? Well, whatever, I've got to admit that i'm going to probably be coming here some more later. I could do some graphics works for you, banners maybe, i'm not sure. But either ways, i'm looking forwards to more!
