It was good. Better than mine, anyways.

Phreddy, not everyone likes rounded rectangles as talkboxes. I know that I couldn't use them, let alone want to, because I'd have no way of getting them the right size to align the text in :/

That's not the point Chromus ^^;; My comics aren't supposed to make sense. It's supposed to be humorus(SP?)! If you look past the fact that you wouldn't forget the laws of gravity isn't it funny? *looks at chromus with big huge puppy dog pleading eyes*

GAH! One of my jokes was copied even before the end of the current contest! ("Why am I even here?" Same line different character)

And reguarding the Rectangle tool thingie... I just use it after I place the text where I want it. That way I make the rectangle to fit the text rather than the text to fit the rectangle.

And that's all I have to say for now :P

Yeah, that's what I do. I put the text into a blank picture, then put a rectangle around it giving a min 1 pixel gap, then copy it into the main picture.

Now tell me how I could do that if I was using rounded rectangles.

oops! Sorry Kamui! I didn't even realize that that line was copying you! ^_^;; But you should feel honored that I used it, because then that means that I liked your comic. (Besides it's a really weird fluke...)I like your comic, BTW. :morning: eh...On top of the fact that I woke up laaaate, I really don't do mornings. -.-;;
