Third version. Redrawn with a ruler for straightness, length, and angle approximations; traced without a ruler for limited neatness. Scanned 600 dpi grayscale BMP, converted to 16-bit color (JPG automatically). I hope I haven't listened to too many people's advice.

( Final Beginning? )

Now that you've seen the three versions, which do you like best and why? Your answers will help me finalize my style before launching a Comic Genesis page.

My personal preference would be to stick with 300 dpi JPG for efficiency. I might continue using grayscale first, tho.

Ever looked at the directions on any can of Amy's Organic Soups? I took one off the shelf fearing it would take longer than I wanted, and what do I find?

"Heat and serve. Please do not overcook."

I appreciate the simplicity, but I prefer a little precision in my instructions. In particular, the only way to know what constitutes overcooking is to find out the hard way. Fortunately, it came out okay the first time I tried.

I'm also amused by the word "please," implying that Amy's is afraid someone might overcook on purpose just for masochism. And if it's lawsuit repellent, all the more reason they may want to be more specific.
