First off, would you resize that damn thing already?

And second, you are not the innovator of seeing something cool and making and avatar out of it.

And third...who fucking cares?

Don't worry Sehk, just don't get too carried away, or i'll have to get fernin to sing a song for you. Or hell i will:P

I re-read the comic again.. I did notice you played on the word "not" a few times, even though you didn't use Not Sure, other than that i liked how you incorporated everything we shared, even on the ending.. I think it was even funnier the second time through : ).

The first time through I didn't catch the "That's not bunny joke". Both the name of the guy is Not Bunny, and he's also not bunny.

What's the big deal? Are you mad I said that, I'm just saying i'm the first convert to Sehk's domination.

I'll try to see if i can make it bigger, I thought it was max size, all i can do for sure is cut off the borders a bit more, so the picture takes up more space.

Great now i can start saying my more embarassing stuff, like how how i actually touched two guys dicks... waiiiittt. (the things i say when i'm in a daze)

Maybe i'll have to make another appearance later on, where my super intelligent wolf doesn't put his master to shame, and, I don't talk like a Canadian from south park, good touch though Very Happy

A lot of good humor in the comic Sehk, great work as always on all the comics so far.

Edit: I resized so it's max.. detail is lossed because it's a full body picture and not just a head... It's a little better but i liked how you could click it and see the huge version before. Mess around on photobucket see if i can resize the image to max, but still make it clickable to the blown up version.

JonSnow,

You should make the dimensions of your avatar 100px X 100px or smaller. If you do not, then the auto-scaling script needs to adjust it. While the end result after using the auto-scaling script equates to the same physical page layout, it hides problems that everyone must deal with.

1. The image remains large, so it takes longer to download and increases the total page size. One image isn't a big deal, but imagine if everyone had large avatars, it would be upwards of 20 large images per page.

2. During the image download the auto-scaler is not active. It only runs after the image is complete. Therefore the page will distort until the image is completely captured. Since avatars are held off site, it is possible that the speed of the site where it is hosted does not match the speed of Sydlexia.com and often times that leads to page distortion for everyone.

3. The auto-scaler makes the image look worse than a properly shrunk image. When a person shrinks the image they have control over how it is reduced using cropping and scaling algorithms. The auto-scaler simply uses the web browsers pixel division technique.

If you are unable to make this reduction yourself, you should ask for help and someone will assist you.

I'm not sure how you accomplished what you accomplished, perhaps the issue was I copied the picture into MSpaint after i cropped it, from your dealio. Thanks for help Embarrassed, it looks a lot crisper.

Cropping isn't the issue, you want "stretch/skew".

I am glad this issue was resolved. Having the high resolution image can be helpful, also knowing to use a bicubic sharper algorithm during reduction helps. Lastly, I tend to add and adjust an overlay layer to bring out the most contrast in images that need to be reduced.

Sehkmaenzo, it is appreciated that you took care of this. Thanks man. Keep up the great drawings.

Ooh, I'm going to have to eat some humble pie as we all recount my teams first and only match and the asskicking we took, huh?

I can dig it. Like the old saying goes, if you can't laugh at yourself, you're a d-bag.

I'm sorry, Douche. If it's any consolation, you're good people. That and my housecat shares a name with you. His name is Sassafrass J. McCallister Esq.

The whole comic is ir-dorn-evant because there is no Shut Up, Dorn reference.
