News Title: ROM the Comic

Hello guys.
I'm not exactly sure on how the updates for ROM are going to be effected by Josiah's move to Japan, but stay tuned to this thread http://forums.pebbleversion.com/viewtop ... 35&start=0 for live updates about the topic. ROM comics will continue to update every Friday on that thread, when they can be uploaded by Josiah is anther issue.


One last not, take a look at Rowie_me's video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWGR0fiyb7I over at Youtube. Rowie_me (a.k.a Paul) plays the part of 'The Fonz'. This was a video he made a while ago advertising venture scouts. Please post your comments on his web page. He really wants some feedback.

Regards
Shauni

Woo, way to be inneffective, me!

Also, everything's spelled correctly.

Incidentally, just what is being stabbed there in the last panel?

Simeon’s left arm has been cut off, but not all of it. There is a stump, and Moen stabbed it.

News Title: Ranma! I kill!

I am such a shameful fan girl. Today’s comic takes a classic quote from Ranma ½ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ranma_%C2%BD . The last panel is a blatant homage to Shampoo’s http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shampoo_%28Ranma_%C2%BD%29 entrance into the series. I just couldn’t resist LOL. Shampoo’s influence can also be seen in Opal http://www.pebbleversion.com/ROM/ROMArc ... ip161.html

No news is good news as they say, so I have good new. I have no bad news.

Please refer to the news subject below for information and links that will effect the comics update seclude for a while.

Shauni

News Title: Paro-paro-parodie!

Recently I’ve found myself addicted to Weird Al http://www.weirdal.com/ If you don’t know who that is, you should be ashamed. He’s even been on the Simpsons http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2a4GTxhWwNA
ANYWAY, my personal favourites include the Virus Alert http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ejtSBGAnvdQ and the E-bay songs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HYokLWfqbaU

My point being, I love parodies. If you know of any songs that are parodies of existing songs, or just funny ones like the beer song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4HNGZUrPOk , send me a PM on the forum http://forums.pebbleversion.com/ . I’ll be happy to hear from you.

Make sure to refer to this thread http://forums.pebbleversion.com/viewtopic.php?t=535 for news on ROM updates.

Regards
Shauni

...'Dry up and die'? Never heard that one before... I mean, it's spelled correctly, but... wouldn't it sound better as 'hurry up and die' or something?

Er... if you're interested in parodies, you should appreciate this oneif you know anything at all about Naruto.
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

EDIT Rant Title: Please, take a moment.

Legendary Italian tenor Luciano Pavarotti http://www.lucianopavarotti.com/ , who brought opera to the masses, died on Thursday after a battle with cancer. He was 71. My deepest sympathies go out to his friends and family. Pavarotti brought Opera to the common people, and preformed with the grace and passion only the Italian’s posses. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Thursday also marked the funeral of Rhys Jones http://www.24dash.com/communities/27156.htm . Rhys was shot as he walked home from football practice in Croxteth, Liverpool, on August 22. Gun crime in the UK was almost unheard of 20 years ago, but I am more and more disturbed with the number of reports documenting knife and gun shot victims http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/3667985.stm , people being beaten by gangs and needless deaths. My thoughts and prayers also go out to victims of violent crime.

It has to stop.

It HAS to stop….

Regards
Shauni

*comic to follow....when I make it*

Rant Title: A link and the past!

I’ve had a very good few weeks recently. ROM comics are still behind sequel…but I DID find some very EARLY material from ROM’s first year of development while I was tidying some old paper work I had. I’ll be uploading a few of them now and then as fillers if I need to. The very first ROM comic will be posted on Monday in all its re-edited glory. The original comic, which can be seen here http://www.pebbleversion.com/ROM/ROMArc ... trip1.html , was in fact fully pencil drawn and coloured. At the time I thought the real backgrounds looked better, but thanks to a better scanner and paintshop pro 8, the original artwork with current techniques looks rather nice.

I’d officially like to state the RRP (ROM restoration project) has begun! Expect to see some of my older comics with edits and modifications to be uploaded over the next few weeks. These included the first 10-20 comics being edited to fit into the current standard format and size, as well as some of the crapper http://www.pebbleversion.com/ROM/ROMArc ... trip3.html comics http://www.pebbleversion.com/ROM/ROMArc ... rip11.html being removed completely. You may also find some of the earlier dialogued changed, but I will have a full walkthrough for these comics to explain the changes…so don’t worry.


I have a new link for you!

Black Tapestries http://blacktapestries.comicgen.com/ is a long term fav of mine. It’s got some scenes not suitable for younger readers, so beware. The story follows the life of a Were Fox named Lorelei, and believe me, she’s has it rather tough…well, actually, her life would make grown men cry.

Brilliant artwork, wonderful story telling, and a strong female lead.

In a word: Excellent

Regards
Shauni
