He's Taking Her Away?!

Today's Leap Day! What do you think will happen next?

2/27/08

He Finally Got Back In

Well, the tie is out of our poll. If nobody else votes on our poll, we're eventually going to release a Nermia podcast!

Good Thing Heidi Didn't Hear That

She may not have heard it, but she is reading it! She's looking up at the thought bubble in the last panel, so it's a slight fourth wall break.

He Thinks What It Really Is!

Saliva?

This strip was accidentally saved as a GIF file.

2/22/08

She Thinks That?

I wrote this strip, like, 10 minutes before I scanned it.

2/21/08

How Can You Disprove Yourself?

The last panel pose is a little like the first panel pose of yesterday's strip, isn't it?

2/20/08

She Can't Even Say G...G...Gh...G...Gho...s...t?

She's so scared, she can't even say the word g...g...gh...g...ghos...g...gho...t...ost...hos...um...you know, the G word.

(Can you guess who wrote the caption for this strip?)

Transparent!

So, Merlin attached himself to the top of the quilt, huh?

We need more votes! If we still have a tie in two of our options when the poll expires, we're gonna keep it up until we get more votes!

2/18/08

Ghost?

Heidi's mom has red hair too!

I Don't Know

Uh-oh. What do you think he's thinking?

2/16/08

What's a Gho?

The most eagle-eyed people will notice that, in Photoshop, I enhanced the whiteness of the quilt. Look closely at the spaces between the panels and the talk/thought bubbles. Each pixel is a slightly different shade of gray, right? Now look at the quilt. Each pixel is pure white, the same color as this text. The enhanced whiteness wasn't used in yesterday's strip, because I didn't think of it when I scanned that strip. Now what do you think Merlin's thinking in the last panel?

2/15/08

That Must Be Warm

He's coming up with something, I know it by the "hmm" he thinks. Because he's so cold in panel 1, Merlin's talk bubble is shaded blue slightly, because isn't that the color of ice?

What do All Those Paw Prints Mean?

Automatic Paw Translation

"What three letters spell the name of my true love? Y-O-U! From, Merlin"

WHERE ARE THE VOTES WE NEED ON OUR POLL?!?! We need more votes! Our poll ends on the last day of February! That's 2 weeks! PLEASE vote on our poll if you haven't already! And if you already have voted, ask someone you know to vote.

Ouch...That Must've Hurt.

All right, readers (that means you)...I think we'd better get serious here. I Want Moe Attention does not like ties in our polls. You may look back at old poll results and see some ties, but even so, we still don't like them. Anyways, two people voted yesterday, and this created a 50/50 vote. We don't like 50/50, or 25/25/25/25, or even 20/20/20/20/20 votes. We need more voters so we don't have the same number of votes on every choice. We would even accept a difference of one vote between choices. So, we need more voters voting.

If you haven't voted yet, please vote on our poll.

That Was Close!

This idea actually came from the new Disney/Pixar movie "Ratatouille." If you've seen the movie, you'll know why.

2/11/08

He Fell Out!

Yikes! He fell out of the car! What do you think is gonna happen tomorrow?

He Wants To Drive?

Here Comes the Next February-March Story!

FREEDOM! That's what I need!
Remember Moe Predicts? The latest one predicted that Merlin's adventure would be the next February-March story. Well, here's the beginning of the story! Did you notice the "copyright" in story panel 4? That's a new thing. I've been wanting to do that since 2008 began.

2/8/08

What's a Muscular Potato?

Moe's phrase in the second panel came from The Master.
Well, this is our 600th post. But we don't have 600 of anything...so we'll post

THAT'S Gonna Be a Long Whistle

What is this, some sort of Loudest Whistle Contest?

2/6/08

BOOM!

Sooo, what's with Moe's face in the first panel? Was he grounded? Was he bored? Did he not know the weather? Or was he just following the strip script?

Hmm...the strip script. Try saying that ten times fast!

2/5/08

Short Slide

What should we do with our new logo on June 23rd this year?

I.W.M.A. has downgraded its logos. The new poll looked too P.D.o.G.U.-ish.

The Illustrator problem is still going on, but I.W.M.A. somehow managed to get our poll created.


Well, it looks like we've got some pretty interesting results. Because the majority of votes were on redrawing Moe and unchanging it, looks like we're going to change the logo! We'll redraw Moe, copy it it Photoshop, make it all gray, squish it, skew it, and turn it all around! This will give the illusion of a shadow.

Our new poll will be posted shortly.

2/4/08

That was JULIA?!

Because of an Illustrator problem, the poll results and new poll will (hopefully) be posted tomorrow.

Back On Schedule

We're sorry for the short delay. It's a long story.
Poll results and new poll later.
Anyways, at least we're finally back on schedule.

Check Back Later

I.W.M.A. is still on its hiatus, so yesterday's and today's strip will be delayed a little bit.

Expect to see a 600th post celebration soon.

2/2/08

Temporary End

I Want Moe Attention will be on hiatus until Monday.

2/1/08

Rock in the Morning!



Poll results and new poll coming Monday.
