SirDudley:
Screw this cold. I took a week off to get better...and I still have it. Dammit.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
So this week begins with Butts Disease and bad puns. Yep, sounds like this will be a normal week here. And there's nothing wrong with that.
Nice to see Marten in something besides pants for a change. Let's hope this hike doesn't end poorly for him.
Also, Samantha...rule #1 when applying bug spray is to keep your mouth closed. Everyone knows that. Rule #2 is to be ready to swat any bugs that are either immune to it or don't bother leaving you alone. Rule #3.....is there a rule #3?
I kinda like Elliot's hat. If I had some money to spare, I might get one.

You don't talk about fight club.

Even with that background, I'm surprised that so many of the main blocks of colour are dithered, so I wonder if Jeph is using a non-optimal method of creating the palette in Photoshop (or does he do that bit in Illustrator?).

The only way I can see the fairly poor results of #2017 happening is if Jeph's just done the conversion on the default settings, when he really needed to convert the background to 128-colour separately (in advance of joining bg and foreground) to leave a reasonable palette for the characters in the web version of the comic.
Or, failing that, use JPEGs for as long as he's got a background that busy (which he's done at least once before). All that dithering has murdered the filesize (3x the size of #2016) to the point even a full-colour PNG probably wouldn't be much worse.

Y'all quit talking about things you're not supposed to talk about.
