Updating Cast Page

It's perfectly okay if some of the jokes are inside jokes.

Also I just realized I need a Spo picture with with less Fido

A lot of the headshots are good, but a little bit messy. You know, speech bubble clippings and all that.

I'll go in and clean those up, and post 'em here. Gimme a sec...

First one. Here's that same picture of Fox...but with no King in the background there. (This one was hard...)

: foxheadedited.png (23.06 KiB) Viewed 11427 times

Got Sasha. Removed the drunk bubble and that small splotch of green near the back of her collar.

: sashaheadedited.png (18.61 KiB) Viewed 11422 times

Got Rex. Removed the speech bubble and Bino's head in the corner.

: rexfaceedited.png (14.57 KiB) Viewed 11422 times

Knocked down the ferrets in one go:

: simonedited.png (25.01 KiB) Viewed 11420 times

: dukeedited.png (14.47 KiB) Viewed 11420 times

: lanaedited.png (13.35 KiB) Viewed 11420 times

: rockedited.png (16.75 KiB) Viewed 11420 times

Got King. Removed Speech bubble and Fox's Ice Cream.

: kingheadedited.png (19.53 KiB) Viewed 11420 times

Got Marvin. Removed Speech bubble and part of Zach (I think that's Zach, anyway.)

: marvinheadedited.png (15.55 KiB) Viewed 11420 times

Got Sabrina. Removed the big fact comic panel border that plagued the left side.

: sabrinahead2edited.png (12.03 KiB) Viewed 11420 times

I'm not doing Daryl. Removing the speech bubble would force me to redraw his ears, and I don't have the skill to do that.

Finally, I got Daisy. Removed the little speech bubble part near the top.

: daisyheadedited.png (17.72 KiB) Viewed 11417 times

The Milton Ferrets group shot: Speech bubble near the top has to goooooo! I can't redraw Lana's hand though.

Max's shot is nice, but doesn't show him in his usual element (though the alt text brings him back a bit).

And...that's all I got.

Take your pick: (They're really small though)

Edit: Redrew Daryl's ear and Lana's hand for Buck.

Here's a larger Spo:

We hate you too.

Good job with the update, I think you got everyone (save for tertiary characters, but that's to be expected), and I don't see any other errors. Just fix Daryl's ear, and remove the top speech bubble in the Milton ferret's group shot, and you're golden.

*Thumbs Up*

Odd... can you edit the plain HTML source? If so, do it manually.

Alex · Post by **Alex** » Tue Jul 06, 2010 5:38 am

:O Cast page updated! Must.... read....

EDIT: Crying Max? Aww, come on, Rick, don't be so mean. Put another icon for him.

Also:

Rufus: Peanut and Grape’s much older pet-cousin who lives on a farm. He’s a little weird, and he might be into cats.

Rufus might be into cats? Uh... was that indicated in the comic?

EDIT 2: The humans related to the ferrets (Jeeves, ungrateful relatives, etc) aren't in the "Humans" section. I think they should be, but it's up to you.

And... LOL at the alt-texts. Daisy's isn't "Hi, I'm Daisy!"

How is that even possible?

"shazam!"

Post by **rickgriffin** » Tue Jul 06, 2010 10:20 am

I have been grouping them by their sphere of connections; a good part of the stories stay within their own groupings so I thought it made sense that way.

Updated some text on the ferrets, where I completely forgot to think up a most ridiculous purchase for Pit.

Alex · Post by **Alex** » Tue Jul 06, 2010 10:45 am

Okay now, I really liked the alt-text for Tarot, Max, Mr. Bigglesworth and Simon. Awesome

!

Alex · Post by **Alex** » Tue Jul 06, 2010 3:51 pm

Sorry for the double post, but Rick, I want to point out, you wrote "the" two times in a row for the Farm Animals, and also, you excluded the barn cats... don't tell me they're gonna become food, too?!

The tickets remark is a reference to this. You'd have to live under a rock (or possibly outside the US) to not have seen that commercial.

"He’s friends with Bino mostly to the extent that he still has some lingering issues of his own, including his personal aggravation with cat-lovers."

Does this mean that Fox is against cat lovers? I sure hope not.

GameCobra · Post by **GameCobra** » Sun Jul 11, 2010 8:42 pm

As Fido noted, mostly everyone except the humans is pretty much against the cat-lover affairs. As for Fox, i would say the best reason he has issues with it is because of Bino and the community, but then again, we could be wrong.

I wouldn't hate Fox for it since he's mostly the understanding type with this and it's possible he's following along.

Alex · Post by **Alex** » Mon Jul 12, 2010 3:47 am

"Total felinophile". Now come on, Fox would either protect Peanut, or at least keep his mouth shut when Bino accused him because of the picture he drew. So... Fox doesn't like cat-lovers.

The only dogs that don't mind are Joey, Fido, Peanut and apparently Rufus. I still have no idea how he can be a cat-lover, but meh. It wasn't indicated in the comic.

Well Rufus does live in a barn with three female cats.

Post by **Sleet** » Mon Jul 12, 2010 7:54 am

We don't know if Rufus is cool with it. The cast page comment might be a joke, and we know that he was unaware Peanut was talking about a ~~dog~~ cat.

And it doesn't count as not minding when you actually are a cat lover yourself. So that leaves virtually no one that we know of for sure. I would guess King is OK with it, seeing as he used to be a human and probably still has his human opinions.

You mean Rufus was unaware that Peanut was talking about a cat? Because he was talking about Grape, who is a cat

I don't think King is OK with any romance between pets...

Yes, I know, which makes my statement true - Rufus is unaware that Peanut is talking about a cat.

Post by **Sleet** » Mon Jul 12, 2010 6:09 pm

I meant to say cat; my bad. I was short on time when I was posting that.

Okay, so now that I've got a few minutes to upload what I did a while back, here they are!

Kyderra · Post by **Kyderra** » Tue Jul 13, 2010 3:21 am

I was pondering to make all the cast page avatars like this (+/-)

test Example:

but most members seem'd to found it silly,
however, I don't mind making them all like this if anyone thinks it's a good idea for the overall look :3

Alex · Post by **Alex** » Tue Jul 13, 2010 4:23 am

That does look, Kyderra. It would be nice on the cast page, really.

Also, Dissension, why baby-blue in the background

?

sliceofdog · Post by **sliceofdog** » Wed Jul 14, 2010 3:21 pm

XD Wow, those alt-texts are awesome! Pit's and Daisy's were probably the best.
Even before I found out about that, the new cast page is brilliant!

I'd say next the Bonus page really needs updating. Even if there was just a link to the Fan Art bit of the forum, or the Housepets DA group or something. You have way more fan art than that! Show it off

Fiddlers and Keys wrote:One is a guy and one is a girl...

I just noticed this. So it completely strikes out the possibility of them both being guys and just going out to eat together like friends. But WHO is male, and who female?! Rick, such information is needed on the cast page.... TELL US ALREADY!

Zander · Post by **Zander** » Wed Jul 14, 2010 4:15 pm

How about in the book, one of the bonus contents is fiddler and keys gender xD

He won't tell (yet) I hope he will eventually maybe he'll do a mini arc on them (I doubt it but it would be neat)

Alex · Post by **Alex** » Wed Jul 14, 2010 4:24 pm

Yeah, it would be great, both of them are really cute.

EDIT: 1700th post xD

Post by **Sleet** » Wed Jul 14, 2010 6:21 pm

The more we beg, the more fun it is to keep their genders from us, yaknow.

But I would like to see more into their personalities. There aren't enough cats in the cast of well-developed characters!

Post by **Obbl** » Thu Jul 15, 2010 10:09 am

Course if Rick waits long enough and the Radio Show gets to that point, we may just have to pick at random.

50:50 chance!

Like i said before, id love to put the voices together, add sounds and make the text appear just like in the vg-cats adaption

OMG I just realized that Pit Milton's alt text is an Old Spice reference. I LOVE THOSE COMMERCIALS!
