MetaChat vs. Webcomic Forums →[More:]
Okay, I have always loved the spirit of comraderie here, plus you got the best radio station on or off the web, and there are very few places left where I can register as simply "wendell" (therefore, I must become "wendellwit"). But can anybody in the MetaVerse do what Blank Label Comics' Brad Guigar just did for me?

Gee, Lee.... uh, thanks?

Hey! That took over THREE MINUTES of my blood sweat and tears! But seriously, it's cool that you have your own banner.

posted by LeeJay 19 December | 00:16

Cool, wendell!

Just to be clear, the "just wendell" part was in reference to the fact that you didn't have to register here as wendellwit, not some sort of attack on your character.

I thought it was because I was nominated to the MetaChat Supreme Court.

Not after that little "present" you left on my Coke can.

Hey! How'd you get Philip Seymour Hoffman to play you on your banner?!

posted by dobbs 19 December | 00:52

Wow, LeeJay! Your work has a buoyant insouciance that more formal banner art reaches for, but never quite achieves. Its subdued color palette and economy of line serve to both temper and amplify the compelling sense of delicate whimsy, finally leaving one with an oddly sastisfying message of ethereal gravità.

Eight out of 10 critics agree: it's a mecha masterpiece!

who the fuck IS the guy in the picture?

Is that an artist's rendition of how I'll look after dropping 100 pounds, lasik, dermabrasion and rogaine?

If so, I'd better get to work...

Isn't that the real Philip Seymour Hoffman?

Hey, I know Brad Guigar! Met him at Ubercon 2004 and did an interview with him there for Sequential Tart. He's a really nice guy.

Having said that, I really don't read GI anymore. *sheepish*
