I don't really have any serious issues with tga other than size/compression peculiarities. Uncompressed version works fine, but I had issues with most of the builtin compression types. Conversion would be trivial with imagemagick or something similar. Uncompressed tga in a zip sounds rational to me.

used to use tga, but then discovered the problem with alpha in png is more of a photoshop issue than anything else (it being a smartass and not giving easy controls over it). After I switched to Gimp I don't really have that problem anymore, and png became more convenient. Substance was always okay.

A muscle car is seen on a desert road with a man in a white cowboy hat leaning against it looking in the distance. A coyote stands on top of the car as well looking into the distance too. in the distance are strange clouds that swirl in the middle and seem to be lifting up large boulders.

You have a really lovely way of drawing your characters having a good time. This visual style just laser-focuses it to perfection :3

haha, I used to eat lemon slices easily, but can't anymore for some reason. Licorice though? Yeah that's extreme. Though works nicely sometimes. Also, hella cute faces on the both of them :3

Because someone reminded me and I can't stop thinking about it:

Warp Drives! Ship Design!

FREE ADVICE: so, there's a filmmaking concept called "business." "Business" is, essentially, the stuff your character does while talking. Fixing a car engine, ice skating, eating an ice cream cone, ducking gunfire. You gotta give your characters "business" so they're not just standing there yappin'.

Sandy from the webcomic Bittersweet Candy Bowl smiling very brightly and sweetly to the camera, sparkles around her, her purplish black hair waving to the side. Her hands are clasped together. She’s wearing a light blue cardigan over a white blouse with a black ribbon  and a black skirt. 

Behind her are Paulo, Daisy, Mike, and Lucy, who stare at her with mixed emotions. Paulo is annoyed with Sandy given his feelings for Mike and feeling like Sandy neglects Mike, Daisy is teary-eyed and yearning for her lost love who never looks her way, Mike is tired and conflicted by Sandy’s more recent confessions in the comic, and Lucy stares with frustration and envy, knowing she can’t win against her.

Since I've been in 'kobold mode' for the last day, I present kobolds selling pumpkins and cider. That they totally didn't steal at all. (repost).

I worked on this game about frogs who fish, vibe, and fall over. Inspired by Webfishing, REPO, and maybe emotional damage.

It's called Swamp Fellas. Would love to hear your ideas as to what to add!

I'm sorry. She was so beautiful and fun. And now that feeling of silent emptiness where she's supposed to be... Yeah, this hits really hard. Teared up a bit. Well, kinda more than a bit.

A comic about grieving over my black cat, Mia. I still expect her to be at home, but she’s gone.

Panel one shows me coming home, opening the front door, expecting Mia, but she’s gone. 
Panel two shows me drawing on my tablet, expecting to have Mia on my lap, but she’s gone.
Panel three shows me getting out of bed, expecting to see Mia looking back at me from the hallway, but she’s gone.
Panel four shows me washing a dish, expecting to see Mia trying to climb onto the counter beside me, but she’s gone.
Panel five shows me lying in bed, looking to the side of the bed, where I expect Mia to be lying around with me, but she’s gone.
Panel six shows me tearing up, reaching my left hand to touch Mia.
But Panel seven shows that she’s gone. 

Goodbye, Mia
