OMG EmCee Update! →[More:]Yeah, remember the EmCee?

Sorry this is taking so long; I've had some personal probs this month and haven't been online too much. But it's coming along!

I was just putting some of the panels in order in Photoshop and being all excited and amazed at how these come together as well as they do. It's totally 100% magic, I'm pretty much convinced.

So here's where we are - the current player/artist is bolded for your convenience. Filthy light thief has volunteered to step in for someone who changed their mind....thank you, flt! I have it set so that you get both at the same time, because I personally thought that would be easier, but if you'd rather break it up, let me know, it's fine either way.

Ah! Splendid! I was just wondering how far along it was. I've tried saving an emcee, and it seems to have to be done in sections. Is there a way of saving it all at once?

I'll post them as single images too, if you like...no problem. I think the only way for you to do it yourself would be to take a screen cap, or save each individually and merge them yourself in your graphics program.

Hah, I was waiting until I got home in order to do a search and see if I'd missed any update on these, and here it is. Right in the middle of each- very cool. Thank you, iconomy!

I don't have Photoshop on my work computer, but will likely be doing my slice here. Any advice on free, downloadable Mac software that mimics Photoshop?

mudpuppie - here's a list of free graphic editors, including a number of programs for Mac, with some description of what they do.

Thanks, filthy!

Pixlr might do, if you haven't ruled it out. I used it to make my slice and it worked nicely.

Is BP boringpostcards or brownpau?

bp to me is brownpau, and Portland is always in Maine! ;)

BP = boring postcards ;)

If anyone else is short on time and can't do their panel, I'd be glad to hop in (again)!

Shane is taking my place, yay! BP finished his slice pretty much as I was still emailing it to him.... ;)

This has turned from a fun diversion into a part-time, unpaid babysitting job with lots of begging. Every round there's at least once person who flakes. I'm asking someone to take it over, because as I said up top, I'm having some personal difficulties right now and don't have the time to devote to it.

Shit, I'm sorry to hear that, iconomy. I hope things get better, and thanks for the inspiration and organization in the first place.

I can't wait to see how they turn out, once the rest of the contributors get their shit together.

Thanks, Hugh, that means a lot.

I'm going to soldier on until someone relieves me of my post!
