So I just suddenly remembered that stripcreator exists, after five or six years.

There's a bunch of new options, but most of the backgrounds I used to use are gone.  Or maybe I just can't find them.   What's the deal with the  gray gradient background and the blue stripey one?  I miss their nonrepresentative glory.

Welcome home friend.

 I was going to tell you where to find them, but I couldn't find them myself. The whole experience really knocked the wind right out of my sails.

they were both casualties of the great three reasons war of aught 4. you can still find the purplish one under the misc category. it's labelled bluefade

I wish I'd been around then too so I could miss those backgrounds...

I personally really liked the gray gradient background.  It was good for comics which only had the black & white characters without the austerity of just plain white.

It made a good doctor's office background, too.  Or maybe I just thought so because I grew up going to doctors who had gray gradient walls in their offices.

Oh dear, I missed a whole war?  Please explain "the great three reasons war of aught 4."

Oh yes, that would be wonderfully tiresome.

I thought this thread was gonna be about someone trying to send back their penis to EBay.

Anyhow, I always hated the grey-gradient background.  I found the ultra-thick black line demarcating the floor was far too bold and visually disrupted whatever strip I was making.

i liked the grey-gradient background too. it made a good hospital room/business office, etc. i think i used the blue one only as a church

well, it started as most wars do--trying to decide supremacy between Doritos and Pringles

Do not underestimate the power of Bugles. One day they will reign supreme.

Oh how they will reign.

If you can't get it at Fred's Discount Store for a dollar a bag, fuck it.
