Week Two of the skinny insanity/inanity is right here.

Will Colonel Tigh Ming remember to set his watch? Will Science Guy bring a bazooka to tea party? Will Low-Key boil out of control on the pasta that has sauced him off? Will Grammar Gorilla learn to stop worrying and love Bleater? Will Gluden be diagnosed with a fatal case of gluten? Will Captain Hippity poing his last hop? Will Penne discover that his brain is just a tasty meatball? Will KGB Girl grow up and become KGB Woman? Will Drunk Driveman's unsecret identity by discovered?

Probably none of that will transpire, but instead you get this...


THIS SHOULD WORK NOW IF YOU HAD A PROBLEM VIEWING IT EARLIER.

This is the the original version of the strip. I was going to show you the modified one first, but I ran into problems with that one when I saw it animated. Need to increase from sixteen to twenty four frames. Hopefully I'll have that version for you next week.

Original 2014-08-25 Strip

List of previously colored strips (18)

Some of you probably thought I quit coloring the strips. Nope, I've just been incredibly lazy recently about working on them. This animated one isn't helping.

Fun tidbit: I bet most of you never noticed that the car hitting the tree was such a shock, that the tree's species changed.

Nooo Science Guy! You can't quit now! Who else will fix the Wi-Fi router when it goes on the blink?

Also, Zill, when I look at the comic you recolored, most of it is blank with only a few spots showing up along with a single frame at the end. It might just be my phone not playing nice, but I have nothing else to compare it to.

I'm not sure who's stupider... The KGB for recruiting her. Or the one who was recruited.

What happens when you look at the original strip?

If you getting the same thing with that, then it sounds like it's not handling transparencies correctly. I checked Firefox and Chrome on both my computer and Android tablet. It's working on all of those, so I think might be your phone for some strange reason.

Well...if you want... Here's the large unoptimized version. Though instead of 263 KB, it's 1.7 MB...

Hooray for Saturday and Sunday comics!

The original and the unoptimized version both look fine. I only have trouble with the final product. Weird.

Well, that tells me that the problem is on my end then. I have an idea what might be happening...maybe.

EDIT:
I've PMed you some images with different optimization settings to see if we can figure out what might be the problem.

O_o. Stick figure boobs are just... weird.

Science may be slow and unspontainious, but it gets results, and it tends to be fairly stable. If you want fast and spontainious, you need Mad Science. The downside is that usualy no one else can make heads or tails of what you are doing, and it tends to be unsettelingly unstable, so you can kiss your eyebrows goodbye.

Science Guy should team up with Girl Genius. FOR SCIENCE!

Wait. What? I'm not sexy? :-(

I'm so devastated....

Science might not be sexy, but Engineering is! Just ask Tony Sta- er, Drunk Driving Man!

Be careful Penne! She'll devour you!

She's a two-eyed, two-gun, walkin' black dress pasta eater!


Also, does anyone else have a problem viewing the colored strip? Or was it just balthazar tripping on a ley line or something?

EDIT:
Never mind, it should work for everyone now.

Quickly! Head for the sticks!

Aww, Science Guy looks so sad! Stick pathos!

But never mind Low-Key. I want to know when Penne meets his true nemesis: Spaghetti-Thoth.

Aha, "who harasses the harassers."

Stick City will look up and shout, "Save us". And I'll whisper, "Nah."
