    I'm well aware...it's just that finding Adobe Photoshop for free or for torrent download is a pain in the butt. >_<

    I'll give it a try. Right now I'm trying to write out a story for my new comic, so it's gonna be a while.

    Yea, GIMP is a good substitute for Photoshop. I use it, myself.

    Every character in Grimlock13's comic are my favorite photocomic characters on this site.

    I also use GIMP, after using Paint + Photo Editor through most of chapter 3. It was free, it could layer (helpful for dialogue bubbles) and it rendered text better than Paint, and that's nearly all I did with it, at first.

    It's easy to install.

    I like GIMP!

    I also recommend GIMP, for several reasons:

    1. It's free, so I don't end up with Adobe sending Ninjas after me for recommending acquiring Photoshop in a manner that does not result in money in their pockets.

    2. It's what I use, and therefore what my tutorials are geared towards. It's also similar enough to Photoshop that most Photoshop tutorials can be adapted.

    3. It actually does some things BETTER than Photoshop, and there is a huge community producing brushes/scripts/filters etc for it, all free.

    I'd like to reiterate the fact that GIMP is free, and that the tutorials section has much in it.

    Every character in G13's comic, especially Optimus Prime, the biggest dick in the Universe, enjoys a nice hot tub every now and then, Hotshot who wantses to giving us some huggses, and is a bit ******ed, and of course Hound and the unbelievable, frustrated Cliffjumper, or as Optimus Prime calls him "Red Bumblebee" :lol

    Andersonh1's Obsidian is an obvious one, as well as Coolhand's Ravage, IMO.

    Megabolt with out a doubt no chip is safe from him!

    I'd also add Sharktibolt's Sharkticon as he is the most recognizable use of the energon Sharkticon mold.

    You might as well add the Sharkticlones for the very same reason. :D

    Same here. He's starting to become iconic in my book.

    I'm going to try listing some characters who haven't been named yet (I.E. Mao, Bob, Megabolt, etc.), just to spice things up.

    First, I'd say Autobus Prime's "B.A." character easily became iconic from the moment there was a picture of Nebular Starscream wearing gold chains. It's hard to make the movie Starscream design in any format not feel like Starscream, but B.A. has easily become his own seperate character despite being a repaint. Hopefully AP won't kill him off in his current story as B.A. deserves to be at the very least a recurring character with Carblast and Hacker

    Then, there's Pol's Scourge. He's evil, he's apparently immune to death, and he's the only guy who knows what is really going on at the moment. I can't think of a single character who is as multi-faced as Scourge. Oh, and he had Tigris kidnaped from CI's comic for the price of betraying his "partner" Swindle somehow. There's no other character like him.
