The Shining Source

RJ (Satan) and I have been in school together since the 3rd grade.  A while back, 7th grade I believe, he came into school with two sheets of paper.  On one of them was a small comic strip, and on the other was a chart, both of which he had made himself.

The chart was about this kid we'd make fun of a lot because he was hideous and acted really retarded.  The chart showed the population of the city during its prosperity, and then the giagantic decrease at a certain point.  Almost like a timeline.  The point were the line dropped was when this ugly kid arrived in the city.  Funny stuff, but it gets better.

The comic strip was also about how ugly this kids face was.  In the comic strip, a random lady was in her house trying to cook breakfast.  She found her stove was broken, and she couldn't cook, so as she cursed over and over again, she found a solution.  In an old cupboard in the house, she found a picture of this ugly kid, who was named Garret (the kid from our school.  How she got the picture out of a random cupboard is beyond me.)  She made the picture face the food, and the uglieness set it on fire, and sent the food rocketing onto the ceiling.  Theres more, but its not really as stupid as the rest of this topic.

Anyway, after that funny piece of work was done, we proceeded to laugh until our sides split.  We both continued the "saga" of the yellow toothed old lady and her picture over and over.  Sadly, I lost track of my set of comics, but, to my suprise, RJ had found them just a few days ago.

Though my set of 6-10 pieces of the comic are missing, RJ has his, including the original.  I plan to rob them from him, and post them here for all to see.  I warn you though.  7th graders have no sense of the word "funny", and this crude and senseless humor may, as a matter o' fact, SHOULD, offend some people.  I'll have some of them (about 6 of them) posted by the end of the day.

sounds like him, post em asap i know a few people i can give em to =p

LOL, don't worry you don't have to steal them, I'll hand em over.  I was a little bothered by all of the cursing, I guess I have a matured sense of humor compared to back then.  They are still classics ^_^.

This coming from the person who recently posted "Maybe he is being honest, but in my opinion....THAT'S THE GAYEST THING I'VE EVER SEEN. It's up there with Michael Jackson's face."

No further questions, your honour

And at least these comics aren't sprite comics, so they're not destined to be crap. We'll see how they turn out.

Not wuite sprite comics, but the pictures aren't "Hall of Fame" worthy.  Stick figures.  :lol: The only reason we decided on this is because RJ isn't the best artist, and I didn't want to ruin the originallity in the comic.  One question though.  I'm not sure how to post pictures up here.  Please tell me, and I'll put them up.

Check the FAQ at the top .

Hey, I think it was OK artwork for me.  For ME.  And Newts, be quiet.  *shifty eyes, runs away.*

Obviously, there's a problem.  How can I get this stuff up here if it's not on a website??  I don't have a site of my own...

Post tips
 

Sign up for a free Angelfire account, www.angelfire.com, and upload them there. Couldn't be easier.

The probelm is, its a pretty big image, and takes about 10mb.  Idk if you can upload a large file like that all at once onto a free website.  I couldn't shrink the pic because it wouldnt be readable if it was any smaller.

Thanks though, Newts.  I'll sign up after i get outta school, as the schools comp system is strict as hell when it comes to restricted websites (angelfire being one of them.)

10MB? What the Hell? If that's a BMP, PNG or PSD, you should compress it to either a JPEG or [preferably] a GIF, which should take its size way, way down. If not, use WinZip to archive it, which again should reduce its size quite considerably.

If it's a 10MB JPEG, however, I fear for your life

using winzip on a jpg or gif is more or less pointless - for a gif the extr compression is <10% and for an average JPG it's <3%. Better reduce the quality of the jpg - which also has a better compression ratio and should be quality wise equal to gif considering your drawings as they don't need that sharp outlines.
All in all you can shrink a normal page to a <1mb JPG in good quality.

I actually meant they should zip up the original BMP [if that's what it is] if they couldn't convert it to JPG or GIF. Shoulda made that clearer If it's a JPG then reduce the quality [as bEn says], and if it's a GIF you should probably reduce the number of colours. Either way, we'll get those comics online, if it's the last thing you do

"Yes SIR!"

Don't worry, they'll be up.

Now you know...I'm not ALL worthless    :lol:

It's been a while, but I think it's finally ready.  Here you are, and enjoy how disgustingly random this is.  If you don't remeber what the hell these are supposed to be about, read above.

P.S. - In one of the 'boxes' the woman is sleeping, but the text is cut off.  It reads: "They should fall by morning." (I think).  Have fun.



EDIT - Okay, for some obviously retarded reason, it ain't showing!  What the hell do I havta do to make things work!!!?

Any suggestions on what I should do, or does anyone have any idea why this would be f**ked up?...?
