I think eth and I decided between us that she was going first, me3dia. Hope that doesn't gum up the works for you. This is going to be a lot of fun...thanks for putting it together for us!

Cool cool cool. Thanks me3dia for setting this up. You are hardcore with your corpses. I was getting used to the MeCha "cheaters corpse" where the sliver from the previous slice is actually the first 15 pixels of your slice. That gives a little room for blending, layering, and what not. But I'm psyched to try it this way since it'll force me to polish up on my skills. moonbird - expect a slice later tonight.
Slack, there's plenty of room for blending and such -- you just have to be careful and not change the strip. The blending is done in your own section. For instance, I sent a player this: ≡ Click to see image ≡
And she countered with this: ≡ Click to see image ≡
Notice how the brown blur on the right was extended down into the image of a caramel apple she found? It blends perfectly, but all she did was keep the strip in a separate layer from the rest of the image, so that she could match it without altering it:
