Now that I think of it, those overworld sprites I attached are crap... but he hardly ever uses WM's overworld sprites.... if only the batty one could save us!!

*looks around*

I will admit that the background was kind of rushed, but it was the best I could do for a first time thing.

As for the White Mage sprite, I didn't have the correct sprite. I just took the ones from the game that obviously didn't look as good as in 8-bit theater. Thank you Archdeco. I'm going to copy those into my "portfolio."

Yes... Trebeck was just a modified Fighter sprite.

As for the outlines, I don't really like them, so I leave them out, but everyone has told me to keep them in, if I make another one, I'll put them in.

Well, what it does is put huge gaping holes in the Fighter and the others. They look real screwy without them.

Being a sucker for SNL and especially that skit wins you extra points. Since I know nothing of makign sprites, I can't comment on them. It was funny though and i give it 4 fighters out of five.

:fighter: :fighter: :fighter: :fighter:

Do you have a copy of Adobe Photoshop handy? Because it's much easier to use than Paint when it comes to making comics.

MS Paint is great for sprites, as it doesn't smooth anything out, but if you make a mistake when putting a piece of a comic together, chances are you have to redo that piece.

APS on the other hand, works on a system of layers, thus making comic making very much easier ;)
If you make a mistake, like place a character too close (or far away) from another character or object, all you have to do is move that one layer, instead of recreating a piece of the scene.

Having said that though, APS is an absolute piece of -- erm -- doggy doo, when it comes to handling sprites. Like, it's not worth opening up a *.bmp file in APS to work on sprites, because there's a total lack of pixel-by-pixel based tools there. This is when logic fails, and a Microsoft program ACTUALLY becomes useful (wow!). :p



Don't mind me, just posting parts of a rant. Again, good comic :cool:

Hmm... Adobe photoshop, huh? I'm going to have to look into that. I will give you that, MSPaint was a mother to work on, but it did get the job done for me.

yeah use adobe photo shop. When I read it i was constantly thinking of Celeberty Jepordy from SNL (which was excellent I might add) so your comic was good in that way. It made me chuckle a couple times (bite me trebek, fighters life, sword collection) and even got me a few weird looks from my coworkers (which is the ultimate approval imho). Good job.

I think Brian uses adobe photoshop for the comic.

I'd hate to be anal, but since BM wagered Fighter's Life, he actually saved it. If he had gotten it wrong, THEN the Jeopardy people would have had to kill Fighter.

But I laughed. Good Work.

Actually, you're right there. When you think about it.
