Lifted by his own petard — I mean hot air.

Boy, has Annie got Chesney pegged!

Wonder what his voice sounds like now.

Good morning Linda, Chesney is now safe, hooray!

Good morning Linda

A belated Happy Valentine’s Day to you all…

This picture reminds me of some of our kitties here…no names cough… Chesney…. cough…. of course…..(psst… it’s Chesney)

OK…I can’t resist.

This one’s for you, Linda….

Hi Susan.It’s nice to see you in these parts… : D

; ) Annie always knows, doesn’t she?

Great pix today 2old, Happy, and Susan! (lifelong fear of water balloons made me chuckle out loud!)

I loved 2Old’s picture of the Siamese in the knitted hat and Susan’s picture of the kitten with heart. Good morning to all, especially Linda

LOL! Chesney knows he’s full of it! :-)

Good morning all! Good morning Linda!

Very funny indeed! Great strip today, Graham as we got more snow last night. I feel like we are living in Canada and not in the Ohio Valley.

lol

First of all – so glad Chesney got out of the basement. The dark is no fun.The pictures here just keep getting better and better! Loved the knitted hat 2old -LOL Great balloon picture Happy. Very cute Susan – I’m going to have to look for that book! Eldo – that looks just like the comic!Beviek – that is soooo funny!I know the pics here just have to make you feel better, Linda. They do me. Good job guys!!!! Great way to get the day started.

Linda, Get Well Soon! (:

I’m not to sure we want any of the cats, Chesney included! down there with Basement Cat and Basement Bunny…

I like how G.H.’s cats typically speak with their noses in the air. After all, even homeless cats are proud.

Mr. Harrop, I have a question. How do colorize your strip? I use the paint bucket tool in Photoshop Elements (the cheap one) to colorize my drawings. While using that feature, one can only colorize within areas bordered by lines. How do you manage to achieve color fades and gradations and transitions when they’re not bordered by lines? For example, the window in panel one of your Feb. 8 strip. Within the window, the color transitions from blue to white. How did you do that might I ask? Or where can I read about how to do that? Also, I’ve noticed in many cartoonist’s strips, I will see the color gradually fade to a lighter hue of the same color. Do you know how that’s done, sir?

Good night Linda

Great Pictures, Happy!

GOODNIGHT PEOPLES AND OUR DEAR LINDA! AND GRAHAM, WHO BRINGS SUCH A DELIGHTFUL STRIP TO US!

FOUND ANOTHER GREAT STRIP AT SHERPA, “PLENTY OF PENQUINS” BY PATRICK WIRE, VERY CUTE!
