The funniest strip in a long time, IMO. I like Mandy's look
in the third panel. One of the few times I actually like the
result of one of my ideas, so I guess people won't like it. :)

I think Xander and Nerd Boy would be good friends, they look similar and have the same kinda personalities :-D

Yes, you may be right, it may be the best one for some time, but that doesn't mean, the others were bad... Don't be that negative, you're strips are cool! cu, Ralf

I need to work on my PHP skills :-\ Interesting. There's not much to comment on, so I think if I said something now I'd probably be way off. I'll wait and see what happens. Looks like your PHP is fine. Very irritating pop-up though. > PS.

Thanks. I was trying to capture that schampoo commercial look, where the girl runs her fingers through her hair and tosses it. I really don't know how well I did though. -- OO Joaquim G�ndara .||. http://www.Nerd-Boy.net bb jg

I can't help but think that you're either exaggerating or being sarcastic. I'm just not very good at the whole feedback thing, be it positive or negative feedback. I'd like to think that you're being honest though. I can almost imagine somone sitting in front of a computer screen, looking at some seemingly random characters and then laughing for 30 full minutes. Wait.

That's just so... wrong! Yes.. but... it was just for educational purposes!

Don't be that negative, you're > strips are cool! I'll only believe you if you buy a t-shirt. ;) Seriously, have you ever looked at what you've done and thought "Oh man, I'm really good at this"? I've only seen little kids and total newbies boast about their work, so I naturally assume that if I ever do that, my work is total crap. The more I learn, the more I realize there's a lot I don't know. P.S: I'm only half joking about the t-shirt. For some reason, the idea that people actually spend their hard-earned money on NB merchandise makes me so happy it borders on disgusting. -- OO Joaquim G�ndara .||. http://www.Nerd-Boy.net bb jg

I have a few problems in my coding, actually. I plan to add more comics soon (hopefully!) and maybe I'll repost the link :) > If you say so. :) Xander seems like the slacker/hacker type to me though, > while Nerd Boy strikes me as being more hyperactive.. sometimes at least. Xander isn't quite like that, at least so far. I hope. Again, with more events and episodes and such, their personalities will become more apparent. -- par...@hotSPAMmail.com (Remove SPAM from the address when replying.) This concludes our drill.

Believe it or not, IMO you captured just that look, *combined* with a quasi-desparate looking upwards. Yay for the expressiveness of ASCII!

Well, sure, that's right, but you are already at episode 295, so I think, you can be somehow satisfied with yourself... *g* And for the T-Shirt: easy, living in Germany (without a credit card) doen't make shipping and paying very easy... *g* But I'm still searching for a credit card (well, actually for someone with a credit card, who pays that and gets the money back from me), so perhaps, I soon can wear something really good! *g* cu, Ralf
