The newest new site shut down as I was in the process of making it, but thankfully, I've become so skilled at regenerating the site that I can put it up in no time. Right now, the only operational pages are 10-21 in the archive (because those are the only ones whose code I saved), but it won't take long to do the others because I don't have to make the code from scratch. After I've made each page, I'll save the code to a word document so if the site fails again, I can switch web hosts and regenerate the site in less than an hour. Nifty! Innovation is born from necessity!

One more thing: If this web host works out, there will always be that annoying little ad bar at the bottom of the page. I don't know if it will work out; it's only allowing me 3000 MB of space. (...but I guess that will be enough because most of my comics are in .gif format!)

EDIT: The entire archive is up! :D ...But I have to do homework, so don't expect a comic until after I've done my homework.

Close your eyes, girl. Look inside, girl. Let the sound take you AWAAAAAY!!

Another guest comic!! I am so honored and flattered, you guys! This one is from my friend Eli, who has a webcomic right about here. It's got a story to it, so I'd suggest you read it from the beginning. Hey, guy. Innanet high-five!

Problem

For every facial expression I draw, I unintentionally make that face in real life as I’m drawing it. Think about it.
Rapidfire comic-making, here it is! I'm getting used to GIMP! In fact, this is the first comic that was executed 100% in GIMP. (I mean 'executed' as in 'realized' or 'accomplished', not as in 'killed by the state'.) So! This is a rare moment when Americrayon shares my experiences. I had this exact homework problem*, and I was so tempted to give the answer Americrayon came up with, but I gave in and wrote the correct answer instead. (I'm trying to pass the class.) It also raises the question: How old is Americrayon? I will tell you that she's old enough to work in an office job and still be taking Calculus. Hmmmmm?

Okay, so I got a new computer and I'm using a new program, so I'm trying to get used to the colors, which are all weird and silly. I'll try to be more discerning when it comes to light lights and dark darks.

'Will you be quiet? I'm trying to rhyme here.' '...So am I.'
Oh dear.
I believe that took a little less than a month. I'm sorry, but I'm in college right now, and I've switched programs (can you tell by the last panel?) to GIMP, which is fairly uncooperative, so not only did the actual drawing take more time, but I had (and have) less time. In fact, I should be reading right now because I have a quiz tomorrow. B:{
TOMORROW, I'll have this on the RSS feed, and I'll put it on its own page and in the archive, but I just don't have the time right now, or today. I have LOADS of comic ideas, I just don't have the time to sketch them out or finish them.

And while I do not endorse smoking, I do endorse smoking jackets. :D

What? It's DELICIOUS.
Oh, what an INCREDIBLY original idea, Sara. An evil cat. I am just completely overwhelmed by your preeminence in the field of creativity. Who would have EVER come up with such an idea?
 
Shush, you! I will have none of your sarcasm! It's a comic! Besides, who says he's evil? I never said it. YOU were the one who used those words. Perhaps YOU are the one who is unoriginal.

Did I say you were unoriginal? I do not recall ever typing those words. You seem to be putting words into my mouth.

You have no mouth; you are just the little voice inside my head.

Yeah, well. That's true.

Quick, before anyone misunderstands me! I am in no way trying to put Obama down. I love that guy. (I feel terrible having to defend my jokes, but people have been misunderstanding me for the worse lately, so I don't want to take the chance of having anyone be offended by a misunderstanding.) Yes, so sorry for taking over a week to post, but I have been busy, worried, and ill.

Seriously, Zach. You're never going to discover cold fusion.
I guess this is the tail end of Mothers' Day, but HERE ON THE WEST COAST IT IS STILL SUNDAY. Also, inevitable questions answered about this "comic": Yes, I have four siblings and a dog. And Mark does look like Mr. Spock. Poor li'l Spock boy. I already made a fantastic montage for my mother, but I am still full of the Mothers' Day spirit, so here this is. I am sure this counts as a comic, Project Wonderful. My hand is killing me. : /

MAYDAY! MAYDAY! Americrayon has updated more than once in a single week! Aaah! Well, it's not much of a gift 'cause the art in this comic is terrible. :< 
(By the way, did you get my "May Day" pun? :D)

By the way, Vogue LOVES the new look.First comic on the new site! The archive won't be functional for a while, at least until I get more time on my hands. Anyway, about the comic: Hey! There is no Americrayon in this comic! This comic features only the beautiful and majestic Marie, and Combover Man. No real story to this one, just kinda random. :B

We can rebuild it. We have the technology.
As the site isn't working right now, I'm using deviantART to upload comics so that they are viewable. Turns out that the webhost I have is very unreliable, so I'm looking for a new one. Suggestions would be appreciated!

Fun fact: My little next door neighbor suggested the colors for panels 4 and 5, and she colored the background for panel 5.
Yes, that is a booger. I am liking the colors on this one. They are very... colorful. And hey! I have two actual backgrounds in there. Also, I included the word 'lurk' in there because that is Mash's word. It is not uncommon to hear things like, "And then he lurks away backwards," or "Where should we lurk today?" or "Do you know where the janitor is lurking?" around Mash. One more quick notice: MY (SARA'S) BIRTHDAY IS ON FRIDAY. I expect no gifts, but if you feel like giving me money, I will not refuse it :3. There's an official announcement in the announcements subforum.

What Evil

Don't tell me you've never done this.

I wasn't in a particularly comicky mood today, but here you are. Let me tell you why. I woke up this morning and we didn't have enough hemp milk (No THC! I promise) to pour on my cereal, so I had unsoftened Peanut Butter Captain Crunch, the most abrasive cereal there is. I spent the rest of the day trying to summon the motivation to draw a comic, but all of my energy was gone (probably because I was listening to Sunday Bloody Sunday by U2 on repeat. It's a great song, but it drains yeh). So I went to take a shower. I realized halfway through that there was NO SOAP. So I improvised. I finished my shower only to discover that there was NO TOWEL. So I improvised. Also, I was unprepared for my babysitting job because I was trying to draw this comic, and I hadn't even put on a bra or deodorant or combed my hair all day, and I didn't even have my contacts in, so I can't see a thing. Also, when I genuinely did the work for this comic, the internet swallowed it up as I was trying to move it from a folder to a subfolder. URGH.

I want my money back!
I tried to submit this last night, but it didn't work! D: Also, there is a secret joke in the last panel. Do you see how no one is manning the Starbucks? THAT IS BECAUSE THE ECONOMY IS TERRIBLE AND THEY HAD TO FORECLOSE IT!! Hahaha! Uh, yeah. This won't be on the RSS/Atom feeds until later because I can't get to my LJ at school. Also, somehow the version of this that I sent to myself wasn't sized down, so I had to size it down while I was formatting it, so it's all... pixelated. And wonkay. Wool. (Mash is making me write this.) Anyway. Uh.

Mash: Heehee.

Sara: O_O No! I won't!

...who will never live up to the image he's created for himself...
Gee, it's been a week. I have a boatload of legitimate excuses (I've had eye appointments, and my eyes have been dilated, etc.), but I really do need to get on the ball. In regards to this strip, don't be so quick to judge Meri. Let me give you some context. Neckbeard and Meri have always been rivals for Flecks' attention. Neckbeard is playing the drama queen to try to get sympathy from Flecks, and Meri is just fighting him. Also, Flecks thought it would be theraputic for Meri to admire his statue because she hates him so. It almost worked. You can't blame a guy for trying.

Don't worry; not ALL doctors abuse their god powers.
Hey, would you look at that? Continuity! I can foresee this strip being immediately controversial. Firstly, it is illegal to abuse patients. Secondly, he could just restrain her with cords. Thirdly, it's not even, like, possible to remove all of one's bones. Fourthly, that would require SO many more surgeries to remove the bones than to just redo the mending surgery. Fifthly, I just realized that Spongebob Squarepants has a very similar line in an episode where Plankton wins Spongebob's person in a bet. I can honestly say that this did not inspire my comic at all. I've been waiting to put "You've just lost your bone privileges" in a comic for a long time, and I'm fairly confident that I came up with that line before that episode of Spongebob even aired. So to address all of these concerns, I will simply add to canon and say that she is dreaming this. Can you tell that I REALLY want to defend this strip? Well, I do. :O

Oh, quit whining.
Hey, guess what? It's uselessly snowing here! The sky decided, "Hey! I think it would be a great time for a change of climate," and forgot that there are humans here who could blow up the planet if they wanted to. What do you think about THAT, Mister Global Climate Change? Anyway, I'm experimenting with styles on comics, and I want to know what you think. Also, you get to meet Ming and Pepper, M.D. :D Yaaay. One more thing: Double-digit-versary! There are ten "comics" up now.

Secret tunnel! Secret tunnel! Through the mountain, secret, secret, secret, secret TUNNEL! Yeah.
I've been commissioned to draw a gaming-related comic for my school's yearbook. This is what pooped out of my brain. I could've spent more than two hours on it (which is the amount of time I spent) and tightened up the comedic timing and the backgrounds and stuff, but meh. I DUN WANNA.
