 The Official Page Redo Thread.
I am in the process of redrawing pages. I've reached goal 1, which was redraw the first two covers, which quite frankly sucked, and actually post the cover for Chapter 1 (it exists now). Goal number 2 is to redraw the first ten pages. This should not take too long.  . Goal number three is to redo the rest of the archives, in the order of the most hated.
So...if you've got a page that you absolutely DETEST, and I mean you have hated this page since you read it for the first time, post it here and it will be killed.
Latest redos:

Pages to be killed:
...we're waiting for suggestions.

I understand the perfectionist urge - Oh Lord, do I understand the perfectionist urge - but what we really want from you is regular updates (And a good chili recipe. Mine is always a bit bleah).
That being said, if you're redrawing pages you might want to look at the head proportions you've been using. Human eyes are in the center of the face, halfway between the jaw and top of the skull. Your characters are looking a bit flatheaded.
Pokes the perfectionist, just to watch her twitch.

Hey this is a good idea! I've been recoloruing (not redrawing) all of my original pages, so um...I'm gonna steal your Forum idea...HAHAHA!!
Oh and your new art is much snazzier, and works much better. Good works.
My plan as I update is to redo the pages over time, without interrupting regular updates. Success so far.

That's what I'm doing. Three real update pages a week, and then if I still have time, one or two need-to-die pages.
Ian: You've got nothing to worry about for the rest of the month, and we wouldn't update more than twice a week until AFTER november anyway. I just...think about new people seeing the old pages and...*shudders*.

The early work was good enough to keep at least a couple of people coming back, so it can't be as bad as you think. On the other hand it's your time, and like I said I understand that must-make-better twitch, so knock yourself out.

Redid page two.
MUCH more satisfying than the earlier page.

Well, seeing as how you won't give up this idea, I'm going to vote for a redo of page four.
And I'm going to keep voting for a redo of page four, until that page is hanging in the Louvre and you're in a nuthouse.

It's been sitting in my computer for a month, and I was getting tired of looking at the little clip of "air" every time I came in.
Sides, it came out pretty.
