Well, my computer's working again (knock wood), and I'm slowly catching up on everything. Thanks to the guys at JR Computer Outlet for getting me back up and running after Best Buy dropped the ball. ( Convention stuff behind the cut ) |

| Computer crap and Glori update |
[Jun. 24th, 2008|03:51 pm] |
Apparently, my motherboard is shot. It's so old (4 whole years!) that they don't make that kind any more. Anyone know any decent, trustworthy sources for old computer parts? (It's an Asus SKV8 something-something...) I probably should just break down and buy a new system, but I've already replaced the hard drive and power supply on this one, it'd be nice if I could get a few more years out of it.
Anyway, no Fantasy Theater #19 for Wizard Chicago. I will have a little freebie Glorianna minicomic that I banged together over the weekend (plus the usual back issues, etc.).
The Glorianna webcomic will continue in black-and-white for the time being (Monday's strip is up now -- sorry for the delay). I'll go back and swap in color versions once I'm up and running again.
Hope to see some of you in Chicago. Apologies in advance if I am more spaced out than usual. |

Computer is in the shop, so my internet presence will by spotty for the next few days. Yes, this is marvelous timing, and yes it's likely that Fantasy Theater #19 will not get done in time for Wizard Chicago. My own fault for cutting it so close, naturally. Bleh. |

Just a reminder that, as usual, I'll be set up in Artist Alley at the Wizard Chicago show June 26-29. My table number is 5810 B, over by the loading dock. Come by and say hi! |

I thought I'd do a quick runthrough of how I letter in Photoshop. Not that I think I'm such a hot PShop guru or anything... mainly I'm curious to see how my method differs from other peoples'. ( Read more... ) |
