"The cockatrice touches you! You hear the cockatrice's hissing! You are slowing down." But it's still a humorous thought. Last edited: Tue, 3 Feb 2009 19:31:08

As an aside, when authoring this I found editing the colors to be quite frustrating. I could just type the characters I wanted out, but there was no good way to set the color. Best I came up with was to select the correct color and click on the cell in the comic panel (which changed both color and character), then overtype it with the old character. I'd be much easier if there were a way to make the "pen" set only the color of the cell.

Yeah... the typing pane doesn't seem nearly as powerful as the drawing pane, especially regarding colors. Then again, I think it's mostly there to make status messages easier.

I have had difficulty reaching the Astral pane, the pane of Water, etc, but the Typing pane seems to work well.

Am I the only one who can't figure out how to use the comic templet?
