But I would like to complain about something. My personal opinon is, that making a cartoon-strip isn't just copy'n and paste'n and then writing new lines for the characters and then adding a few (e.g. 2) changes to the pictures. It seems that some of Your cartoons are made this way (Drunks, Breakfast time) and when each picture is the same, it gets pretty boring. I hope You will think about my ideas when You next time start drawing a cartoon. I know it will take more work and time but the result will also look better. Please don't feel insulted and keep on drawing, fellow artist! Kristian Kirsfeldt noo...@netexpress.ee
